Located just a short drive up the coast from Charleston is the historic town of Georgetown. As the third oldest city in South Carolina, Georgetown has earned its longevity through its historical charms and its willingness to adapt to changing times. As a seaport town that, in the last half-century, was defined largely by industry, Georgetown is now revitalizing its picturesque downtown waterfront and capitalizing on its diverse offerings to draw in both tourists and residents alike.            The quaint downtown area features a plethora of eateries and shops, many of which can be accessed from Front St. or from along the Riverwalk. A brief stroll along the Riverwalk yields stunning views of the Sampit River and the colorful boats that are an integral part of Georgetown's charm. In fact, one of the highlights of Georgetown's rich maritime heritage is the annual Wooden Boat Show, sponsored by the Harbor Historical Association. From wooden boat exhibitions to building contests, this event has something for everyone in the family and is not to be missed!            For the history buff, there are numerous places to check out, such as The Historic Rice Museum, Plantation Tours, or the South Carolina Maritime Museum.From shops to history, to its 27 restaurants and bars, this little seaport town might just be one of the best-kept secrets in the south!           If you happen to fall in love with Georgetown and decide to stay, CLICK HERE to check out this amazing riverfront home!
