Sleep
Stay Myrtles Plantation
The Myrtles is said to be haunted and has been featured on national TV. It's an old and beautiful plantation that now serves as a restaurant and B&B/inn. For the most fun, book a room at The Myrtles for Halloween Night, when The Myrtles cuts electricity to the plantation.
