Pawleys Island was the first hammock manufacturing company in the United States. As it was in 1889, this hammock continues to be hand-woven in the same tradition. Every United States President since Truman has received a Pawleys Island Hammock as a gift from South Carolina Senator Strom Thurmond.
Originally designed using a continuous latched weave with steam-bent wooden spreader bars, this style and design is still in use today, representing a tradition and lifestyle typical of Southern plantation days over a century ago. The rope is hand-woven with an intricate macramé clew-end. The steel hardware is coated with weather-resistant zinc plating. Each hammock includes everything you need for a tree or post installation including (2) tree hooks and chain/hook assemblies.

About Pawleys Island
In 1889, the Original Pawleys Island Rope Hammock© was created at Pawleys Island, one of the oldest summer resorts on the South Carolina coast. When river boat pilot Captain Joshua John Ward found the grass-filled mattresses on his boat too hot in the summer, he decided to make a cool and comfortable cotton rope hammock to use on his boat. After several uncomfortable designs, Cap'n Josh made a hammock using wooden spreaders without knots. This original design has proven to be so comfortable, that it's still used in Pawleys Island's popular hammocks, over a century later.

 

Pawleys Island continues to use the highest quality materials when making their traditional all-cotton rope, spun polyester rope, and DuraCord® hammocks. Their custom-designed stretcher bars are cut from seasoned Carolina red oak, then steamed, bent, drilled, sanded, and varnished to impart a comfortable sway to the hammock and to spread the rope evenly for optimum stability.

    ropes frey and hammock is just OK

    fair- not worth trouble and expense to return but very disappointed with size - misleading to say XXL. we have a hammock that we have had 20 years and it is MUCH larger.Read complete review

    fair- not worth trouble and expense to return but very disappointed with size - misleading to say XXL. we have a hammock that we have had 20 years and it is MUCH larger.

    the ropes are freying and actually coming apart. what do you suggest to apply to ropes to stop? wax?

    will NOT buy this brand or size again.

        This is my 2nd XXL Presidental Pawelys Island Hammock. I live in AZ and keep the hammock out year around. My kids jump and play on the hammock and my last one lasted for 8yrs. This is a great product and a good value.

          I never had a hammock before, so I bought this hammock based on the reviews here, I wasn't dissapointed, this hammock is great. Nice and big and well made. I hung it between 2 trees, 18 ft. apart without a problem or increased tipping. Also,I added a great pillow. Go for it!

            This hammock is so fun! We all love to plop on it at the end of a long day. It's so big, it fits three people across. It's a great way to spend time with family. Even my teenagers love to swing on it with me!

              We have had the hammock for a few days and love it. It seems to be good quality. I can't yet comment on the durability. We do intend to take it down before rain.

              Customer Q & A
              1 - 5 of 6
                  1   2      

              Q1: What is thickness of rope?

              A: About 6 mm.

              Q2: Is this cotton rope the same thickness, spread, and have continuous weave as the PAWLC?

              A: Our rope hammocks are all 3 ply rope. It is 100% Natural cotton. We don't recognize the Sku that you gave us.

              Q3: I ave a Pawleys Island Rope Hammock and need a stand. Is an arched hammock stand as stable as a flat hammock stand.

              A: Yes. The arched hammock stands we carry - from the single arc designs on item # KV034 or HKA022 - are as stable as the metal "flat" counterpart - HSHS10.

              Q4: Do the hammocks swing as freely on a hammock stand as they do supported between 2 posts? I have heard they do not. The swinging feature is important to my daughter.

              A: Hammocks do swing as freely on a stand as they do between two posts or trees. The only thing that would affect how much a hammock will swing is how tightly you hang it.

              Q5: WHAT IS THE WEIGHT CAPACITY?

              A: The Weight Capacity is 450 lbs.
