The current owner, the Nature Conservancy purchased the 813 acres for $4.5 million in 2005 and now the county may get 300 acres for only $3 million.

If purchased by the Parks and Recreation Commission it would be turned into a county park.  All that is needed is the approval of Charleston County.  However, even if they do get approval it would be many years before the land is developed into a park.

Other purchases made by the PRC include a 420-acre Harmony Hall tract in Meggett, 1,568 acres of the Long Savannah property in West Ashley and uninhabited northern tip of Morris Island, known as Cummings Point.
