Arcadia Plantation, originally known as Prospect Hill Plantation, is a historic plantation house located near Georgetown, Georgetown County, South Carolina. The main portion of the house was built about 1794, as a two-story clapboard structure set upon a raised brick basement in the late-Georgian style. In 1906 Captain Isaac Edward Emerson, the "Bromo-Seltzer King" from Baltimore, purchased the property. Two flanking wings were added in the early 20th century. A series of terraced gardens extend from the front of the house toward the Waccamaw River. Also on the property is a large two-story guest house (c. 1910), tennis courts, a bowling alley, stables, five tenant houses and a frame church. The property also contains two cemeteries and other plantation-related outbuildings.{{Cite web |author = Kappy McNulty and Kathy Hendrix| title = Arcadia Plantation | work = National Register of Historic Places - Nomination and Inventory | date = March 1977 | url = http://www.nationalregister.sc.gov/georgetown/S10817722012/S10817722012.pdf | accessdate = 7 July 2012}}{{Cite web | title =Arcadia Plantation, Georgetown County (off U.S. Hwy. 17, Waccamaw Neck) | work = National Register Properties in South Carolina | publisher = South Carolina Department of Archives and History | url = http://www.nationalregister.sc.gov/georgetown/S10817722012/index.htm | accessdate = 7 July 2012}}
