THE PORCH:
The porch at Retreat on Main is set apart by its very high ceiling and a large piece of the Jackson family history. When we purchased the house, the Jackson family blessed us by leaving a joggling board that is over 100 years old. 100 years old in 2006, Harriet Jackson recalls her mother "joggling the children to sleep". The board has always been in their family and will remain on the porch in honor of the Jackson family. Joggling boards are commonly seen on the porches of plantation homes, as well as S.C. low country touring homes. It is also known as a romantic 'courting board'. you can learn more about this special Southern form of relaxation during your stay.
