Covington Lake is one of the most popular communities within the master-planned Carolina Forest area of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Surrounded by woodlands, its three- and four-bedroom homes offer a peaceful setting away from beach traffic while staying just a minute’s drive from the coast. Combined with Carolina Forest’s award-winning schools, it’s an ideal place to raise a family or retire.
Covington Lake’s original homes were built by Bill Clark Homes, featuring low-maintenance brick and stucco exteriors on lots up to a half-acre, with luxury touches such as hardwood floors, granite countertops, gourmet kitchens, and full landscaping.

Residents enjoy a pool with cabana, a children’s playground, lit sidewalks, and 12 acres of fully stocked lakes — part of what makes Covington Lake one of the best neighborhoods Carolina Forest has to offer.

Covington Lake East is a gated, all-natural-gas section of the community developed by Lennar Homes, and one of Carolina Forest’s most sought-after places to build. Beyond the gate you’ll find a pool and clubhouse, three large lakes, a covered pavilion and picnic area for grilling, and a kiddie park. The section includes more than 180 homesites, most of them waterfront or with lake views. Homes are luxurious single-family residences with features such as gas ranges, hardwood and tile floors, and optional third-car garages.
