Arriving at Bulow
Before you plan on arriving at the State Park entrance, make sure you do not get confused by other locations and developments that use "Bulow Plantation" or similar names as titles. Furthermore, make sure to look for and turn at the "Bulow Plantation Ruins Historic State Park" sign on the right (heading South) or left (heading North), and make sure that the sign does not say "Bulow Creek State Park," as both titles can easily confuse visitors.
Begin your historic experience at the entrance from Old Kings Road. When you turn down the one-lane dirt road (Old Beach Road) to the Park, begin to imagine yourself traveling in a horse drawn carriage or by horseback. Traveling the dirt road would be very similar to what you would have experienced back in the 1830s.
At the entrance gate. you will encounter a stop sign at the entrance. On your left you will see envelopes in which to place your daily fee. Make sure you place the receipt tag on your rear-view mirror. The Park Ranger patrols regularly and will come by to check.
To reach the Sugar Mill Ruins, turn left after paying at the kiosk, drive past the picnic pavilion on your right and proceed through the woods up the road.
