Either way, the route is well marked. Charleston public transportation does not provide access to the park, however, taxis are readily available. Brief showers and thunderstorms are normal, especially in the afternoon. Spring and fall are temperate. Winters may be cool and damp with occasional periods below freezing.
Snow is unlikely.
The visitor center located in the house and the comfort station are both accessible. The grounds and other exhibits on-site are also accessible. Reservations for individuals are not required. Because the site is small and facilities are limited, school and other should make reservations as early as possible. Contact park for more details.
