What’s a vacation without some leisurely time to kick back and drop a fishing pole into the water?  If you aren’t a heavy-duty angler, you have kids in tow, or you just don’t want to spend the time or money for a charter boat, then try some lazy, gentle freshwater fishing in one of the Island’s many lagoons and ponds. 

    You may see folks sitting by one of the fresh water lakes and ponds within our gated communities.  You, too, can have that kind of easy, lazy experience - just grab a pole and bait, and you’re all set - almost.  You will need a permit which can be obtained through the planation Property Owner’s Association/Security Office.

    Jarvis Creek Park, located on the William Hilton Parkway (Hwy. 278) just east of the Cross Island Expressway. The 11-acre lake is stocked with bass and bluegill so the outing should be rewarding, but fishing there is strictly catch and release. You can fish from the floating pier or find a spot on the bank.  The park is open from dawn to dusk seven days a week, and in South Carolina no license is needed if you fish from the shore.
