Community Information & Rules

Buck Island is a private community with all properties owned by individuals.  Some properties are full time residence, some second homes, some are rental properties, and some a combination.  The one thing in common amongst the properties is a person or family owns the home, is a member of the Buck Island community, and has a vested interest in assuring our community is, and continues to be a safe, attractive, and desirable.  To this end we request all visitors familiarize themselves and abide by these simple rules during your stay.

Community and Amenity Access

Buck Island is a gated community with a control pad for visitor access.  Homeowners have access with a key card or remote clicker, but all others must enter an access code to enter.  Pulling into the left lane and up to the guard house, you will find the gate control panel (shown at left).  As a visitor, you should have been provided a code to enter for operation of the gate.  This is a 4 digit code that works for a period of time, typically the week of your stay.

Enter the hash (#)  sign and then the 4 digit code.  Be certain to not hesitate between the hash and the first number of the code.  Hesitation will reset the entry and your code will not take.  It may take a couple tries at first, but it does work and after your first success you will find it is easy to use.

The gate exists to improve safety in the community and restrict the use of the community amenities to our homeowners and guests.  The pool area, tennis courts and rest rooms also have access codes for the same purpose.  Please use the following simple rules with regard to access codes:

1.  Do not share access codes with anyone outside your party.

2.  Drive through the entry gate ONE CAR AT A  TIME.

3.  Do not attempt to gain entry around the gate by driving over curbs, through grass, landscaping or parking lots.

4.  If you see obvious access infractions (parking at Food lion and hoping gate into the pool, for instance) do not confront the party but take the information to the Office to call Signature Touch Property Management (252) 441-8857.

NOTE:  The gate is monitored physically and electronically for damage to the gate and surrounding area.  We will seek damages from those that cause it.
