Edisto Duck Preserve

Farm Description

Edisto Duck Preserve is located off of Hwy 174 on Edisto Island in Charleston County, South Carolina. It is only 20 minutes from Edisto Beach and about an hour from historic downtown Charleston.

A waterfront homesite on Watts Creek- an intracoastal waterway that feeds into both the North and South Edisto Rivers- is the perfect place for a home or hunting lodge with unparalleled views of Watts Creek and the ACE Basin. The homesite features deepwater, dockable frontage on the intracoastal waterway.

Edisto Duck Preserve has a great history of duck hunting. Primary species of duck include Gadwall, Green-winged Teal, Blue-winged Teal, Wigeon, and Mottled Duck. The Preserve includes a deepwater well that helps to supply water to the 40-acre freshwater impoundment. There is an existing saltwater canal that provides water to the 44-acre brackish impoundment.  A high fence surrounds the freshwater impoundment.

Edisto Duck Preserve is under a conservation easement with Edisto Island Open Land Trust which sets the standard for management of the land and “allow(s) the continuation of historic and traditional uses of the protected property as a family residential, recreational hunting and fishing retreat.”
