Orton Plantation

This historic 18th century rice plantation just minutes from Wilmington is a quiet and  stately portal to the past. Enter through an avenue of Live Oak trees, meander along 20 acres of secluded walking trails, and explore lush gardens of camellias, hydrangeas, crepe myrtles and other flowering plants. Orton Plantation has become a major attraction for events big and small, from weddings at Luola's Chapel to picnics along the Cape Fear River.
