The grand finale of Sporting Week takes us to the breathtaking Brewer Plantation, a historic Southern estate rich in foxhunting tradition and natural beauty. Spanning over 3,500 acres, this remarkable property offers a mix of rolling hills, red clay ravines, hardwood forests, and towering boulders that provide a thrilling and scenic backdrop for the day’s hunt. The plantation’s unique terrain creates a memorable experience for riders and spectators alike, blending the excitement of the chase with the history and charm of the Piedmont region.
Brewer Plantation holds a special place in the legacy of the Wateree Hounds, with its roots dating back to a grant from King George III and a history spanning generations of the Brewer family. At its heart stands the original plantation house, built in 1799 and perched atop the highest crest, offering sweeping views of the surrounding countryside that seem to transport visitors back in time.
After the hunt, drive back to town for a formal hunt breakfast at the historic Kershaw-Cornwallis House, hosted by Jeanene Campbell and her team. Known for its rich Revolutionary War history and timeless charm, this iconic venue provides the perfect setting to conclude the morning with camaraderie, Southern hospitality, and a delicious meal.
