Ngo-1905, iSantee River Cypress Lumber Company, eyayiphethwe nguFrancis Beidler, yayithole iningi lezwe. Ukungena ngemvume kwaba nzima ngenxa yokutholakala okungalungile komhlaba futhi imisebenzi yabekwa okwesikhashana eminyakeni engaba ngu-10, okwakushiywe ukuthi imithombo yezamanzi ayitholakalanga.
Izwe lagunyazwa njengeSikhumbuzo seNational ka-Okthoba 18, 1976, sasiyihlane esakhelwe ngo-Okthoba 24, 1988, futhi saqoka iBioosphere Reserve ngo-1983.

Akuyona nje kuphela indawo ehlabayo enamandla futhi enamandla, kodwa phakathi nalezi zonyaka, ukuhamba okuhamba phambili kwe-ranger kuthatha izivakashi ekugijimeni ukuzwa izingcingo zezikhumba ezivinjelwe.
Abagibeli bethanda ukuvakashela ngasekupheleni kwebusika nasekuseni kwentwasahlobo ngoba kukhona ukuhamba okulula emva kwemvula ngalezo zikhathi.

Kulabo abasemakhaya ekamu, khumbula ukuthi amakamu kumele abe okungenani ngamamitha amahlanu ukusuka emigwaqweni, emigwaqweni, emachibi, nasemanzini agelezayo. Futhi, khumbula ukuthi imililo evulekile ayivunyelwe.
