Cola native here, moved away for school in 1983 & have lived most of my life abroad. I own a waterfront lot, purchased by my dad in the early ‘60s, in Ballentine. It’s one of very few undeveloped lots so close to town, just 12-15 min from Colombiana Mall. I live in China, but am thinking of settling down there, building a house. I was last there in 2018 but hope to visit the area again before the end of the year.
No alligators in Lake Murray (at least when I was a kid, in the 1960s), but there are alligator gars & alligator snapping turtles. Neither poses much risk to swimmers, but be cautious about dangling toes off docks where they’re known to hang out.
Nice video with great information. If you ever need help or a camera man. I’ve got a long history in video production including my drone pilot license.
Great and informative video!
