DeBordieu ColonyGeorgetown, South Carolina, 29440

Description:

Miles of quiet beach, peaceful marshes, golf, tennis and a bit of South Carolina's famous Lowcountry charm combine to make this one of the East Coast's most extraordinary private communities.

Once through the private gates, you quickly realize you have entered a community that is completely dedicated to preserving the beautiful canvas nature has provided. Elegant homes, exceptional amenities and some of South Carolina's most beautiful coastal scenery come together to set the framework for a community of exceptional standards. The rhythm of the ocean. Gentle waves stirring cool ocean breezes. An egret poised on the banks of a peaceful marsh. A feeling of calm is inescapable. It is a pace that compliments the natural beauty of the 2,700 acres that are DeBordieu.

For generations, families have embraced this quietly tucked away community as a place to reconnect. DeBordieu is truly a world apart, yet our secluded setting is convenient to some of the most appealing cities and attractions in the South. The charming communities of Pawleys Island and historic Georgetown are only a few minutes away and provide all the necessities of life and a great deal of enjoyment besides. Romantic Charleston, with its exceptional assortment of restaurants, shopping, historic sites and cultural events, is just an hour south of our main gate. Exciting Myrtle Beach, about 45 minutes north of us, offers its own amazing array of dining establishments and shopping, nightlife, live entertainment theaters and countless championship golf courses. Between these two very different coastal cities lie quiet fishing villages, pristine beaches, a national forest and seashore, dozens of antebellum plantations, and most importantly, DeBordieu.

The DeBordieu Club features a championship 18-hole golf course designed by Pete and P.B. Dye. The links course, opened in March 1987, plays to more than 7,000 yards from the championship tees. DeBordieu's Tennis Program is also second to none. Eight Har-Tru and two hard courts, a comprehensive pro shop, and on-site tennis pros makes the tennis facility unbeatable. Several of the courts are lit for evening use.

The food and entertainment are as varied and appealing as everything else at DeBordieu. Experience Lowcountry cuisine at its best in the oceanfront Beach Club, enjoy live musical entertainment at the Blue Heron Beach Grill, or relax at our oceanside pool and gazebo bar.
