The Creek House is located on a pristine freshwater canal that meanders into the Cooper River. It is ideal for kayaking, fishing, and small craft boating. There are two kayaks and a canoe available. There are some lifejackets, but you may want to pack your own. The fishing is good. There are some fishing poles available, but no tackle. For tackle, you will need 8 to 10 lb. test line, small corks, BB size sinkers, and small hooks. The best bait is worms, crickets, or pieces of a hot dog. Then you are off to the fishing hole and hopefully the frying pan! Bon Appetit!
The property includes a private boat landing with a floating dock. The floating dock has a bench for two, perfect for a cocktail in the afternoon. It’s 5 o’clock somewhere always!! The boat ramp is 12 ft. wide. The backyard also includes a fire pit with wood provided.
