NO HUNTING ACCEPTED ON THIS PROPERTY.
Over 1,000 private acres of pristine wildlife habitat, miles of cycling and running trails, both fresh and salt water fishing/kayaking/paddle boarding ponds with entirely equipped gym and cardio room, horse stable, archery range, amphitheater with fire pit, greenhouse and home office with fiberoptic high speed cable. A once in a lifetime hideaway property with months worth of activities for all ages. Main living room has only TV in home.
Formerly a riverfront rice-cultivation property, the Preserve is located near the historic seaport of Georgetown, South Carolina—12 mins. from the KGGE FBO (which can accommodate a Gulfstream), 12 min. drive from spectacular, sandy-dunes Atlantic barrier island beaches, and 1 hour/15 min. drive from the enchanting Charleston, South Carolina.
This once-upon-a-time plantation is at the confluence of two rivers; a meeting place of land and water teeming with wildlife. This unique property is being offered as a vacation rental getaway complete with private gated entrance and a full range of activities for guests. The property covers 1028.6 acres with a comfortable 4BR main bunk home that offers an amazing water view with floating dock, together with extraordinary luxury outbuildings.
The Buildings-Main Bunk House: The roomy one and one-half story owner's home is located on the waterfront in a grove of live oaks. The low country style home is cavernous and offers cozy luxury. Totally equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, 4 bathrooms and 4 bedrooms featuring 2 queen suites and 2 upstairs adorable bunk rooms under the eaves with 8 twins. The home is surrounded by nature—and nature only—as far as the eye can see. The bunk home overlooks a 40 acre salt-water impoundment, and is located in a centuries-old historic camellia garden and live-oak allee which open to miles and miles of trails through long-leaf pine savannah into ancient cypress bottoms and open fields.
Entirely equipped gym and spa:
The walkways underneath the oaks wind through a centuries-old camellia garden to a gorgeous architecturally designed modern bungalow with completely equipped gym, massage room, steam shower and bath, and changing areas.
Stable with in-law/groom’s quarters:
The onsite stable which is handsomely designed after Belle Baruch’s own, with six stalls, feed, wash, and tack rooms, “stirrup cup” lounge with bar and fireplace, covered patio with Adirondack chairs, picnic table, and bicycle parking, groomsmen's quarters, and a roof accented by a clock and bell tower modeled after Hobcaw Barony stables—ring your hikers in for a stirrup cup! The stable boats a one bedroom and one bathroom. The stable overlooks pastures, archery targets (archery equipment stored at stable), and a outfitted fish pond. Guests are welcome to bring horses with additional fee and prior approval.
The Land:
A marvelous feature of Weehaw is the layout of the property. The home, gardens, fields, pastures and all improvements are located in the middle of property surrounded by woods and rice fields. Visitors travel from Weehaw's entrance gates down two miles of a private road to find themselves in a handsome world of their own. This is really a very unique experience! Once through the gates you are transported into a nature preserve like no other!

Tips to get the very best vacation home experience:
When to visit & When to book:
- Reserve your vacation home as early as possible. Rental schedules often open twelve months in advance (or in September just after Summertime ends). Many groups reserve their Summer vacations during Winter holiday get-togethers. Book before these holidays for best selection.
- Summer months are high season in the Georgetown, SC area. Book your vacation in the Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowded roads, restaurants, and activities. Many vacationers use this method to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front vacation rental that would otherwise be unavailable or unaffordable during the Summer. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Georgetown, SC vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving and Christmas are great times to gather with friends and family at the beach.
- Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may qualify for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property management company or host if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
- Property managers typically offer renters an option to obtain vacation insurance. Trip insurance, which costs between 1% - 5% of the booking price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for any missed vacation time as a result of medical-related issues or weather disasters, as well as hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or extra gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a bank account-saver if the unforeseen occurs. Ask the property owner for details.
- Many rental management companies supply Georgetown, SC area visitor guides that include money-saving offers, either offered independently by local companies, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Georgetown, SC visitors guide and coupon books at local gas stations and shopping centers.
Make a plan and pick the rightvacation home:
- Begin by choosing trip dates and a max budget.
- Decide how many beds and the bed configuration your group requires. Nature Preserve, Great Property for a Getaway! has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.
- Specific information regarding bedrooms and bed types is usually accessible on booking websites. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before reserving the property. Note that most properties list maximum guest capacity, which typically includes pull-out couches and bunk beds. You'll need to determine what configuration is best for your vacation family.
- Do your family pets travel with you? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or costs may be applied to your contract.
- Is your group looking for particular amenities? Most websites include search filters for amenities. Filtering by amenity will allow you to quickly find the perfect rental.
- Proper accessibility amenities can make or break a vacation for persons with a disability. Confirm all required amenities are available and included before reserving a rental
Advice for a smooth stay:
- We recommend storing the host's information in your smartphone.
- Ask questions. You may need instructions for a garage door opener, elevator or appliance. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief call can prevent lots of problems.
- Protect the rental owner (and your stuff!) by keeping the rental locked up while you are gone, just like you would at home.
- Make a record of any issues with the property upon arrival, and immediately e-mail them to the property manager. We especially recommend texts and e-mails, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that can be valuable if there is a dispute.
- Respecting quiet hours and parking restrictions can make a stay significantly more pleasurable. You'll magnify your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors are often an incredible source for finding the best local beaches and restaurants.
- Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local resident! Local residents can usually help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to get the best seafood, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
- Re-check every room of the rental property to confirm that you've packed all of your belongings on check-out day. Check dressers, closets, and bathrooms for hidden items. Clean out the refrigerator and take or dispose of leftovers.
- Please make sure to walk through the property one final time and scan for damages to contents or the property itself. We suggest walking through with the property manager whenever you can (often this isn't possible). If the property manager isn't available, take photos of the property to record its condition at check-out.
- Leave feedback! Property owners rely on great reviews to inspire new bookings. They'll be much obliged for your feedback. Alternatively, if something went awry, other families will appreciate that you share your review find their best rental home. Please be fair with your feedback If something fell short of expectations, consider whether the manager could control the issue, and if so, whether they responded reasonably to fix it.
