## Character

        

A true amenity-driven community where the pool complex is the social heart — residents gather at the lazy river, bocce courts, and fire pits year-round thanks to South Carolina's mild climate. The housing mix of townhomes and single-family homes attracts both primary residents and second-home owners.

      
    
    
          
        

## History

        

Developed beginning around 2006 as the Carolina Forest district was absorbing rapid growth, Berkshire Forest was among the communities that defined the area's reputation for resort-lifestyle living inland from the coast.
