The Ole Wide Awake Plantation is located near the Charleston suburb of Hollywood, SC. My family was…read morethere for a southern wedding. The grounds are very nice with plenty of parking. The staff was accomodating. Other than the grounds near the home, we didn't journey onto the distant grounds of the plantation. There's a nice lagoon on the property. The home is old and in need of restoration. There were probably less than 100 guests for the wedding. I believe the cost to reserve the plantation is around $5000. The wedding was held until a large tent. Bug spray was offered at the residence which is also where they set up the bar area. That didn't help when my wife found herself with over 30 noseeum bites the next day. For that many guests, they only had 1 bathroom plus a airplane size bathroom inside the residence near the very small kitchen area. Being the kitchen was so small, they couldn't prepare too much food. The staff did an excellent job trying to keep up with the hungry guests. This was my first Plantation Southern Wedding. It's now off my bucket list.

We came in fairly close to their opening and they hadn't gotten their liquor license yet. It's the same owner as Ireland's Own, but the technology is a bit more advanced. I wish we would have known about the app and the different courses we could choose from ahead of time. This is mostly because we didn't really know what to expect so we just reserved a bay for an hour to get a feel for it and possibly come back another time. We came in 10 minutes before our time and got started on our bay later than our reserved time because there was another group already on the bay they were going to put us on and then we got a super fast (and quite honestly rushed/sloppy) run down and then we were expected to be out so another group could get on right on time, thus giving us less than an hour and in all honesty, it's not like it's cheap.

I visited Old Town Creek County Park for a Wine Down Wednesday hosted by Charleston County Parks…read moreand Recreation. It was a great event with three types of wine, a food truck, and live music. The event sold out, but I'm glad the participant count was limited so everyone was able to socially distance under the shade trees. All park employees and workers wore masks, and participants wore masks when getting wine or food. I saw (and used) several hand sanitizer stations too. Be careful not to miss the entrance, as the park isn't obvious from the road, but as soon as you drive down the avenue of oaks, you'll know you're somewhere special. The park is beautiful and has a dock with a gorgeous view. This park is normally closed to the public and only hosts special events or private parties. I wish CCPRC hosted more public events there or opened it on a regular basis. I'd love to come out here and have a picnic under a shade tree and just walk around.

According to the signed agreement We had the space from 3 pm- 12 Midnight. Right before 9:30 the owner came in and started cleaning up around us while my guests were still at their tables. When questioned about it, she simply stated she was "just trying to help". She was rude!!! This made my guests and myself uncomfortable as it felt like we were being pushed out the door prematurely. SHE NEVER STOPPED!!!! She said that we had until 11 pm which was really MIDNIGHT!! Most of my guests ended up leaving by 10:30. The rest of us left by 11pm. She never stopped breathing down our necks. VERY UNCOMFORTABLE!!! Please, do better with the next people that rent from you!!!

On one of our visits we made it just before 7pm - which is the cutoff time to buy bottles of alcohol. He would have been so upset if he didn't get a bottle. The space is beautiful. Nice and big with a bar, a ton of high top tables and shared tables. They also have outdoor seating. The bartenders are extremely nice and share their drink expertise with you. There are always fun drinks to try. I always get a different drink when I am there. Doesn't matter the type of alcohol to me because all of the drinks are perfect. We are big fans of the Purple Rain and Blueberry Mojito. We also appreciate the shared games they have. It keeps our kiddos entertained while we enjoy an expertly crafted drink.

The winery has a large property with plenty of space to explore, including what appears to be a small farm with chickens and pigs. On a warm day, the outdoor seating areas with games would likely make for a lovely experience. However, when it came to the wine tasting, the samples were served in plastic cups, which some may actually prefer. But for us, it took away from the overall experience. And most importantly, the wines themselves just didn't impress our palates. We tried a variety of their offerings, but nothing really stood out or compelled us to purchase a bottle to take home. It's a shame, because the setting is really quite nice. But at the end of the day, the wine is the most important factor, and this winery missed the mark for us on that front. If you're in the area and want to spend some time outdoors in a charming environment, it could still be worth a visit. But I wouldn't go out of your way, especially if you're a serious wine enthusiast.
