      Dutch Island Reviews

      1 review
      Dutch Island is a family friendly neighborhood nestled amongst the winding rivers and creekbesds of the Lowcountry. Wildlife such as eagles, red fox, deer, osprey, and otters live in a peaceful accord with their human neighbors. Social activities center around the community dock, pool, and commuity area. Each year, neighbors gather for an annual Fourth of July parade and celebration at the pool, local band parties at the community area, Christmas light contest, Easter egg hunt complete with a visit from the Easter bunny, annual crabbing tournament, and Christmas open house with local vendors. It is a very beautiful, safe, down to earth, caring community in which I was blessed to grow up.
