summerville

In the past year, SUMMERVILLE has seen a surge of dining options as successful local establishments open satellite spots and new concepts look to meet the dining desires of a booming residential market. The charming downtown still maintains its small-town vibe and one of the best farmers markets in the area, and the Nexton development adds value with a range from fast-casual concepts to fine dining. But what we love most about the town known as the birth place of sweet tea remains the same: the gorgeous azaleas that inspire the Flowertown Festival each spring.

kiawah & scabrook islands

A lot has changed since KIAWAH ISLAND Golf Resort opened with oceanfront rooms for less than $50 a night. It’s now home to one of the best golf courses in the world, not to mention the five-star Sanctuary hotel. The island had previously been used for cattle ranching and cotton and indigo farming before it was passed through the hands of prominent Charleston families like the Gibbeses and Vanderhorsts, and later saw the skyrocket of development in the mid-1970s with the emergence of a residential resort community. SEABROOK, to the north, is a private community, but the Bohicket Marina and Seabrook Equestrian Center are open to the public, along with barely touched beaches. Freshfields Village is the entry point to these sea islands, and a destination in its own right.

johns & Wadmalaw islands

JOHNS ISLAND has seen a proliferation of development in housing and new businesses over the past few years, making it one of the most sought-after places to live in the Charleston area. With suburbs sprawling over the sea island, as you make your way east to WADMALAW ISLAND, there still exist pockets of farms that produce extraordinary produce for restaurants and residents, a vibrant Gullah Geechee community, waterways in every direction, and a Spanish moss paradise of live oak trees, including the Angel Oak tree, the largest east of the Mississippi. At the end of Maybank Highway, the inquisitive traveler is rewarded by the tiny circa-1784 town of Rockville, the entirety of which is on the National Register of Historic Places. Every August, Rockville’s Sea Island Yacht Club hosts the annual Rockville Regatta.

JAMES ISLAND has quickly become one of the most desirable places to live in the Charleston area, with its ideal location between downtown and Folly Beach and relatively quick access to both. Tucked-away neighborhoods, marsh access, and great schools are additional benefits—and recently, dining has taken off with multiple new restaurants and second locations popping up, to the delight of locals. However, don’t overlook the many reliable, unsung favorites that have been serving up great food and drink from the start.

Just across the river from downtown Charleston sits the oldest suburb off the peninsula, WEST ASHLEY. Bordered by the Ashley River to the north and the Stono River to the south, this eclectic suburbia is criss-crossed with waterways and tributaries and composed of neighborhoods that fan westward, including a mix of grand old estates and postwar brick bungalows. Along the Ashley River, you’ll make your way toward Charles Towne Landing, where the Carolina colony was first founded in 1670. And out Highway 61 you’ll find some of Charleston’s most famous historic properties, among them Drayton Hall and Middleton Place, where you can learn about the area’s troubled past.
