Along the East Branch of the Cooper River, 35 miles from Charleston, sits Richmond Plantation. This plantation has long been an important site in the history of the low country region. The Girl Scouts of Eastern South Carolina purchased 153 acres of Richmond in 1963, turning it into Camp Low Country. The camp’s boundaries include the entire historic center of the property where architectural, archeological, and historical resources abound.
Nestled amongst other plantation within the Cooper River Historic DIstrict, Camp Low COuntry, as it is know today, is 9 miles east of Moncks Corner and 17 miles north or Mount Pleasant, SC. Currently owned by the Girl Scouts of Eastern South Carolina, this unique property contains a mix of modern and historically significant structures. The property has extensive frontage on the Cooper RIver, 34.8 acres of rice fields, and a 2.9 acre lake.
