COTTAGEVILLE, S.C. (WCBD) – A mobile home, two campers, and multiple vehicles were destroyed during a Sunday night fire near Cottageville.
Colleton County Fire Rescue was dispatched to a structure fire at a property off Lotus Court just north of Cottageville shortly after 9:00 p.m.
A neighbor told 9-1-1 that they heard an explosion and could see flames through the woods, Fire Rescue said.
Crews arrived to find a single-wide mobile home, two campers, and four vehicles on fire.
“Firefighter-paramedics deployed multiple handlines and used the deck gun on Engine 9 to combat the fires. Tenders supplied water for the firefighting effort on the small one-lane dirt road,” said fire rescue officials.




The fires were brought under control in less than 30 minutes; however, crews remained on the scene performing overhaul for about five hours.
No one was at home when the fire began, and no injuries were reported.
