In June of 2025, construction plans for Dunn's Ferry were approved at a pre-construction meeting. The latest activity on Dunn's Ferry was in August of 2025, when the developer was looking to incorporate "inverted crowns" or "center gutters" - a surface drainage design techniques that direct water toward the middle of a pavement instead of the sides. This is the opposite of a standard crowned road, which is higher in the middle and slopes to the edges for drainage. The Horry County Planning Commission disapproved the right to waive the Roadway Design Criteria to allow inverted crowns on the streets.
The new home community of Dunn’s Ferry in Conway will be developed on an approximate 42.31 acre parcel adjacent to the Waccamaw National Wildlife Range.
The Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge was established on December 1, 1997 to protect and manage diverse habitat within coastal river ecosystems and to provide wildlife-dependent recreational activities such as hunting, fishing, wildlife observation, photography and environmental education. The wetland diversity on the refuge provides important habitat for migratory birds, fish and other wildlife. The Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge is located in parts of northeastern Georgetown County, South Carolina, southern Horry, and southeastern Marion counties, and contains lands adjacent to the Pee Dee River, the Little Pee Dee River, and the Waccamaw River near their confluence. Currently the size of the refuge is 22,931 acres but plans call for the total refuge to be over 50,000 acres.
Preliminary plans are showing 51 single-family homes in the new home community of Dunn’s Ferry in Conway.
Moss Park Partners II LLC currently owns the property.
As of September 2025, timing for development of Dunn’s Ferry has not yet been announced.
