Waterbridge · Carolina Forest, South Carolina
A gated community in the heart of Carolina Forest — home to the largest residential pool in South Carolina, a 60-acre lake with its own boat launch, a village-style clubhouse, and 120 acres of protected woodland.
Behind Waterbridge's brick-and-wrought-iron gates, lantern-lit streets wind through coastal cottage-style custom homes set on wooded homesites and panoramic lakefronts. The community wraps more than 80 acres of lakes and is bordered by roughly 120 acres of federally protected woodland — a third of the neighborhood will never be developed.
The amenity village is the showpiece: the largest residential swimming pool in South Carolina — Junior Olympic lap lanes, swim-up refreshment center, jetted spa, and a landscaped island — beside a clubhouse with catering kitchen, a 24-hour fitness center, and courts for tennis, pickleball, basketball, and sand volleyball.
And then there's Palmetto Lake: sixty acres of open water in the middle of it all, with a community boat launch and storage — kayaks, paddleboards, and slow evening cruises just beyond your backyard.
Sixty acres of open water in the heart of the community — launch a kayak or paddleboard from the neighborhood ramp, fish the banks, or just watch the light change over the lake from your porch.
Junior Olympic lap lanes, a swim-up refreshment center, jetted spa, and a landscaped island — an award-winning pool complex beside the village clubhouse and 24-hour fitness center.
Tennis, pickleball, basketball, sand volleyball, bocce, and a community fire pit — threaded through open parks, sidewalks, and the quiet of 120 acres of protected forest.
Off Carolina Forest Boulevard with quick reach to Highways 501, 31, and 17 — schools, shopping, and medical minutes away, the beach a short drive.
