Welcome to Deer Island
We hope you enjoy your time here whether you rent or buy. Here are some things to know:
General info: Please park only in the driveway; two cars maximum, additional parking is available in the trolley parking lot. Be sure to display your rental guest pass, if applicable; improperly parked vehicles and vehicles without a pass for a Deer Island address are subject to towing. Please turn off the outside lights when not in use and when you go to bed; it is kind to your neighbors and the wildlife. Consider taking the trolley around Sea Pines; it stops in Harbour Town and is a great way to get to the beach, parking at Sea Pines Beach Club is very limited. In order to keep the beauty of our neighborhood, please refrain from placing towels over the deck railings. Christmas lights and other holiday decorations are allowed during the winter holiday season. Because dates shift from year to year, the Board will announce a window for putting them up and taking them down. Most importantly, please keep your pets on a leash and pick up after them; it is the respectful thing to do and their dropping can spread disease to other dogs and humans.
Pest control: Pest control is on the second Monday of every month.
