Between Waterfront Park and Patriots Point: A Lover’s Hideaway

By Mark A. Leon

Where is a perfect spot to get a bottle of wine and strawberries from Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s and hide out in one of the most scenic spots in all of Mount Pleasant yet still not be bothered by tourists, cameras, silliness and mayhem?  Where can you escape with a picturesque view of the Cooper River Bridge and the USS Yorktown?  Where can you sit back on a bench and watch a rainbow of color burst from the sky as the sun sets over the harbor?  Where can you smell the bounty of fragrances from the trees and flowers as rabbits hop by?

We aren’t going to tell you, but we will show you.  If we laid a map out, then hundreds will flock to this site and ruin the uninhabited beauty it bestows.  I think after you follow us along this photographic path, you will begin to put the pieces together.

Tag along and find out what few already know and the rest are going to find out.

A secluded lovers hideaway just minutes from home awaits you in the friendly city of Mount Pleasant.

You bring the hand holding, the romantic music streaming on your IPhone, the wine and we will bring the natural beauty that awaits you on your perfect escape.

Enter with us.

Have you ever scene such serenity and beauty untainted?  I dare say there are few spots so remote and so accessible to truly find yourself and your loved one.
