Carroll Place, also known as Old Carroll Place, is a historic plantation house located near St. George, Dorchester County, South Carolina. It was built about 1820, and is a plain two-story, Georgian I-house dwelling. It is sheathed in clapboard single house and rests upon low brick pillars. It has a hip roofed verandah supported by six wooden posts. Its builder, Joseph Koger, was prominent in the political affairs of the area. Located on the property is a grave marker dating from 1837 that marks the graves of three Koger children.[2][3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1]
