7 Most Romantic Places on Campus, According to You

Valentine’s Day falls on a Sunday this year, so we figured we’d give all the lovebirds in town a head start and republish a few days early our list of the Most Romantic Places on Campus (as decided by you, Facebook-using Cougars).

For those hoping for a memorable Valentine’s Day, perhaps it’s wise to corner that special someone in one of the following places around campus and let the sparks (hopefully) fly.

And if you stray off campus, you can still do fine in the love department, considering Travel + Leisure magazine ranked Charleston as the most romantic American city in 2015.

Good luck!

7.  The joggling board in Cougar Mall.

Right in front of Maybank Hall, you have to time it perfect to be alone here!

6. Historic homes.

“Anywhere near an iron gate.” – Hattie Keyes

5. Porter’s Lodge.

“Arches on the left and right of the Porter’s Lodge; what better spot to steal a kiss between classes?” – Crystal Bartels

4. The koi pond in Stern Center Garden.

“I’m not sure if it’s still there, but I always loved the far back corner of the Stern student center courtyard. Gorgeous landscaping all around and no one never looked back there.” – Allen W. Graham

3. Outside of Sottile House.

“The benches outside the Sottile House where my soon to be wife and I started dating over 4 years ago :)” – Jordan Boyd

2. Anywhere in the Cistern Yard.

“When I was at the College and my husband was deployed, we had Skype lunch dates in Cistern Yard every week. He’d always ask for a panoramic view of the oak trees before we ended the call to get the sense of being there.” – Ashton Huge-Kosier

“I met my fiancé in the Cistern yard freshman year… so that has my vote!” –Chantelle Harrison

1. Standing on the portico of Randolph Hall.

“Just inside Randolph Hall where we walked through for graduation, where my husband proposed, where I had my wedding portraits taken, where we had our family pictures taken, and where we celebrate every year now at A Charleston Affair!!!” – Summer Myers Landrith
