Wonderful. We loved the alligator ponds, the turtles and birds. Visited the farm on site and hiked a bunch of trails. A very nice half-day break from the beach. **Bring Bug Spray!!!***. I'm not kidding. You have been warned. :-)

Told off by the staff at the entrance that we were incompetent for not reading the website carefully, which was written poorly to begin with. We were told it's a $5 fee for cars and...

Located within the Sea Pine Plantation this small gem has walking trails, fresh water fishing, picnic areas and a wildflower medow. In the spring it is amazing and should not be missed.

Four of us strolled around the forest preserve this past February and enjoyed all the sights and sounds which, undoubtedly, change seasonally.

The preserve offers a nice place for a stroll or bike ride. A lot of the trails are shaded so you can bike even during a sunny day and not be exhausted from the heat. If you're lucky you might spot some wildlife. We saw some birds, a turtle and two deer. Nice!

Just off the main road in Sea Pines and it is full of wildlife and natural beauty. We went on a horseback tour from the stables
and it was a perfect way to enjoy the beautiful weather.

Nature in motion. You will combine walking and viewing which brings you close up to the offerings of the area.
