The Original Pawleys Island Rope Hammock® was created in 1889 at Pawleys Island, one of the oldest summer resorts on the South Carolina coast. Captain Joshua John Ward, a river boat pilot who barged rice and supplies between nearby Georgetown and the great rice plantations of the South Carolina low country, found the grass-filled mattres boain the summer.

Hatteras Hammocks® has been in business for over 25 years. It was in the early seventies that the company founder, Walter Perkins Jr., began selling out of the trunk of his car a few hammocks that he had purchased on business trips. Mr. Perkins disassembled one of these sought after rope hammocks in his garage and set about improving it. "This was a perfect example of a hobby becoming a business," states Mr. Perkins. The first of Mr. Perkins' new and improved "Hatteras Hammocks" was sold to friends around his hometown of Greenville, NC as well as taken down to the coast of North Carolina and sold to visitors in that area.
