This facility was completed in 2021. Swain Boating Center overlooks the Ashley River with floor to ceiling windows and an attached screened-in porch. The dining room can hold up to 120 people when seated banquet-style (the dining room is 1,675 square feet). The main room contains a large projection screen and mounted projector on one wall and a television screen on another wall. Surround sound speakers are also installed in the room. The rental also includes a smaller room connected to the main dining room (capacity 24) which is often used for catering and/or bar service, but it could also function as a small break-out room for small groups. This smaller room has one mounted television screen. Tables and chairs to seat up to 120 people are available (60-inch rounds; 8-ft, 6-ft, and 5-ft rectangle tables; high-top cocktail tables, and 120 chairs). The screened-in porch comes with outdoor furniture, including 10 rocking chairs, five small side tables, two 48-inch round tables with four chairs around each, and two 31-inch high-top round tables with two chairs each. The porch overlooks the Citadel’s boat docks on the edge of the Ashley River.
