Pinckney Park – New Park on James Island

We’re pretty excited about the new Pinckney Park on James Island. It is within bike riding/golf carting distance of our house AND it has a playground. The master plan for this park is quite spectacular. They are working on the park in phases. The playground is done and the park will eventually feature picnic areas, an amphitheater and water access. It’s on the quiet end of Fort Johnson Rd near DNR.

Here are a few pics. Be sure to check it out!

The park will have a lot of nature trails.

Here are a few other free parks with playgrounds on James Island/Folly Beach:

“Dragon Park” at the James Island Rec Center- Nice and shady

Riverland Terrace Park – This park is on the water and right across from a fire station so kids love it. This park doesn’t have a website so the link takes you to the boat landing that is right beside the park.

Pirate Park on Folly

Surf Board Park on Folly
