Longwood Plantation, originally named Pompion Hill, has a rich history dating back to the late 1600s. Founded by Pierre de St. Julien de Malacare, a French Huguenot settler, the property became a trading hub with Native Americans. Its name likely stems from a rounded clay hill on the land, possibly an ancient Indian mound. In 1824, the estate was renamed Longwood by Alfred Huger, inspired by Napoleon Bonaparte’s death at Longwood House.
Today, you’ll discover over 300 acres of manicured grounds with large open vistas, ancient live oaks and dramatic sunset views of Copper River.
