Visit Rose Hill to experience the charm of Aiken's most originally preserved "Winter Colony" estate. This downtown property encompasses a city block, yet the ambience is intimate and timelessly elegant. Rose Hill is a regional treasure located on the highest elevation of the original Aiken plateau just two blocks from the downtown main street (Laurens Street). It is the first property in Aiken listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and is where the Garden Club of South Carolina began 75 years ago. The architecture and maturity of the gardens are unique in the region. From 1898-1984 the 10,000 sq.ft. high-fashioned Shingle-Style Dutch Colonial was the winter home of one of America's first families: Phelps.

Now you can relax overnight, walk the gardens at leisure, unwind in the Sheffield Clubroom Bar, sit on the garden terrace, dine in the acclaimed restaurant, and be spoiled with a lavish breakfast with the same graciousness of a bygone era. Together the historical feel, positive energy, impressive gardens and numerous indoor and outdoor locations make Rose Hill a fabulous destination and the ideal location for an overnight stay, memorable dinner party, meetings, reunions, fundraisers, weddings, and receptions.
