Light show for Christmas was just so much fun. Truly an experience worth taking. The Santa Workshop area had so much neat and timely shopping. Some festive goodies to snack on little S'mores kits to make treats at the outdoor fire pits. A fun train ride with a very long line. There was a beautiful sand sculpture and some fabulous children's art. Highly recommend it for a Holiday Treat.

I miss James Island County Park. Well worth the 2.00 pp fee. Trails, dog park, accessible paths for my wheelchair, plus the rush of seeing an occasional alligator. We know it as DISNEYLAND.

This dog park is easily the best in the area. Well maintained property with bathrooms (port-a-potty). Lots of space to speak out if needed.

I was a little skeptical at first about letting my little baby play with the other dogs not knowing if they would be well behaved. But it actually turned out really nice. Everybody was friendly. The dogs were all playing around. The areas kept really nice and manicured , the beach area for the dogs was a breath of fresh air it kept the puppies entertained for hours. I would highly recommend anyone take their dog there as long as they’re well behaved.

What an awesome place. Only enjoyed the dog park so can't rate other parts, but wow...wish we had a place like this near our house in North Carolina. This is dog heaven.
