Lonely Carolina Isle Becomes Wild Utopia With Tax Free Cottages
Remote Hunting Island off Beaufort, South Carolina, is being developed into a state park with a tax free beach village. The 5000 acre island, accessible by road and bridges, will host leased land cottages by 1948 alongside a public recreation area and a district for Negro visitors. The site features a lighthouse, wreck of the City of Savannah, and a mix of professionals among leaseholders as development proceeds.
