“All of Park West’s amenities – the pools, the tennis courts, the racquetball courts – are included in the HOA,” Ritter says. Recreational facilities are throughout Park West, connected by paved pathways that folks walk, jog, bike and golf cart on. The Tennis Center has six courts on the neighborhood's west side, right by the two community pools. Down the road, the Park West Recreation Complex is a magnet for local athletes and a center for youth sports programs. Facilities include a playground, a swimming pool, ballfields, sand volleyball courts and a fishing lake. Another spot where resident anglers can fish is the Park West Crab Dock. The pier juts 60 feet across Lowcountry marshes to overlook still water and green codgrass. Nearby, Laurel Hill County Park offers miles of running trails and almost 650 acres of natural scenery.A-rated Charleston County School District has excellent schools in Park West
