Word on the street
What locals are saying
The Boathouse at Poplar Grove sits on Rantowles Creek with deep-water dock access to the Stono River and Intracoastal Waterway — a genuinely off-the-beaten-path Lowcountry setting that rewards couples willing to drive out to Ravenel. The structure itself delivers: soaring wooden beams, exposed brick, a wraparound porch, and a crackling fireplace make it one of the more architecturally honest small wedding venues in the Charleston area. Hard cap around 150 guests keeps things intimate, which is either the venue's great strength or its limiting factor depending on what you're planning.
