Rosemont Plantation is a historic archaeological site located near Waterloo, Laurens County, South Carolina. Development of the plantation was begun sometime between 1750 and 1790, and reached its zenith during the second quarter of the 19th century. The main house burned in 1930. Architectural remains may provide information on intra-site patterning, subsistence data, refuse disposal patterns, architecture and organization of the plantation, and the display of wealth by the plantation owner. It was the home of Ann Pamela Cunningham, who worked to save George Washington’s Mount Vernon Plantation and served as the first Regent of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association of the Union.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.
