It All Starts With the Land.

The 20,000-acre tract known as Palmetto Bluff extends from the headwaters of the May River near the town of Bluffton, skirts Bull and Daufuskie islands via the Cooper River to its east and gives way finally to the ancient freshwater rice fields of the New River along its western edge.

Indulge in the Sporting Life.

32 Miles of Waterfront

Cast a line into one of our many ponds and lakes or in the May River. Explore the water trails in your own kayak or canoe — or be a little more adventurous and grab a paddleboard. If you prefer a slower-paced waterfront activity, pack a picnic basket and relax on a unique beach that nature hides with the tides.

Satisfy Your Palate.

It is difficult to choose from the diverse cuisines available at Palmetto Bluff’s many eateries. Begin your day with some griddle-cooked favorites and lively conversations. Enjoy lunch and dinner that caters to your whims, from simple-but-spectacular soups and salads all the way to five-course meals and fireside s’mores.
