HILTON HEAD (WACH)--Erosion has forced the evacuation of cabins at Hunting Island State Park.

The Island Packet of Hilton Head reported officials had to evacuate the south end of the park late last week as the ocean undermined the road leading to four cabins.

Park manager Jeff Atkins says officials were able to evacuate get people out by driving on the shoulder of the road. Atkins wasn't sure how many people were in the two occupied cabins. He says they were not damaged.

The park stopped accepting reservations for nine of its 10 cabins last winter, worrying erosion would threaten the cabins. The park still accepts reservations for the cabin near the lighthouse on the island's north end.

Atkins says those with reservations for the four cabins on the south end of the island are getting refunds.
