Boater Reviews
A wonderful place to visit with friends and family in the Low Country of Martin-Millet area. This landing is traditional for it's fishing, boat riding and swimming if you not scared of gators but don't worry it has a flowing well for the children to play in.
This is about as wild and remote as it gets. My wife grew up here so, she'll swim. I'm brave. But... I'll have to warm up to that area
I was hoping for birds to photograph. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. It's a pretty spot and has a really cool artesian well.
This is a unique little gem tucked away on the savannah river! It's more than just a boat ramp. It's a fishing spot (wether your boating or on land), it's a swimming area, It's a good spot to see a gator (haven't seen any huge one's so felt alright about swimming), and theres a natural spring. You can bring a grill and hang out with friends or just make friends with the folks you meet like I did.It's a fun place to be.
This is one of the nicest boat landings on the SC side of the Savannah River. There is an artesian well that's not too sulfurous, given the name of landing. There is ample room for trailer parking although it is unpaved. Fishing must be good because I see fishermen here every time I stop by.
