| The heart of Coosaw
Point is the newly-completed River Club, truly an architectural tour de
force. Almost 8,000 square feet of interior space, surrounded by wide
covered verandahs, look out over the marshes of the Coosaw. The River
Club features a large informal recreation room on the pool level, a
cocktail lounge and bar, an extensive fitness room, rest rooms,
reception foyer, and elevator service to the second floor of the
clubhouse. The second floor is designed for more elegant activities like
bridge, property owners’ parties, and catered events (there is a
professional caterer’s kitchen). The grand salon soars upward for over
30 feet to huge trusses at the peak of the roof, and a lovely balcony
looks down over the salon from above - a striking view! The junior Olympic pool with its shady pergolas, an elaborate child’s pool and a snack bar are adjacent to the clubhouse and have easy access to the first floor. From the riverfront verandah, you can watch |
the
sun rise over St Helena Sound and the Atlantic Ocean. In the evening you
can sit in a big rocking chair, enjoy a sundowner, and revel in the
spectacular sunset over the upper waters of the Coosaw. Crabbing is a popular pastime at Coosaw Point. The docks along the canal are good for catching a few, and the old crab shack, a remnant of what was once a thriving commercial crab-packing operation, has been preserved for community or family get-togethers. Boaters are well provided for at Coosaw Point, too. A large floating dock provides 200 lineal feet for tie-ups and easy access to your craft. Next to the dock is a concrete launching ramp with walkway. The basin has been excavated from high ground so that it does not impact the adjacent marsh, and provides protection for property owners’ boats from rough seas during stormy weather. The basin is connected to the Coosaw River by a 1,000 foot canal that was dredged out many years ago. These amenities give Coosaw property owners easy access out St. Helena Sound to the Atlantic, as well as to the Intracoastal Waterway. Property owners at Coosaw Point enjoy walking paths that extend from the clubhouse and waterfront into the residential neighborhoods and community parks. An hour’s stroll will take you from river and marsh, through maritime forests, beside freshwater wetlands and into grassy parklands. |
 A generous area for lighted, tennis courts, parking that has been designated, and the first two courts are ready for play. The area is centrally located just across Coosaw Point Boulevard from the main interior park so that the entire family can enjoy being together. Almost 130 acres of Coosaw Point remain open space. There are wonderful old man-made duck ponds, as well as freshwater wetlands bordered by live oaks, that have been set aside for perpetual preservation. One such wetland is reserved as a bird sanctuary and rookery, where residents can view egrets and blue herons. Large parks have also been set aside as relatively open grassy fields, bordered by shade trees, perfect for a neighborhood game of softball. The residents of Coosaw Point are as distinctive and diverse as the Lowcountry itself. They share one simple belief – that life is better on the water. Come visit Coosaw Point and see why they’re right.  |
