Palmetto Bluff Club: Finding Your Perfect Fit

Tucked into the heart of the Lowcountry, Palmetto Bluff is a place where life unfolds at its finest pace—unhurried, connected, and deeply rooted in community. Membership here goes beyond access to world-class amenities; it offers a way of life where golf, sporting pursuits, and social traditions come together to create something rare: a true sense of belonging.

A Community Rooted in Connection

Membership at Palmetto Bluff begins with people. The Club brings neighbors together through shared passions, whether it’s a round of golf at a championship course, a wine tasting at one of the many seasonal gatherings, or an afternoon on the water. The Club creates a place where friendships flourish, traditions are honored, and new stories are written every day.

Palmetto Bluff Golf Club

Golf is at the heart of Palmetto Bluff, and Members of the Palmetto Bluff Golf Club enjoy a world-class experience across two distinctive courses: the Jack Nicklaus Signature May River Golf Course and Crossroads, the new nine-hole course designed by King Collins. A third, highly anticipated 18-hole Coore & Crenshaw-designed course, Anson Point Golf Course, will open in early 2026.

The Shooting Club At Palmetto Bluff

The Shooting Club combines tradition with innovation, offering one of the most comprehensive sporting clay facilities in the region. Stretching out across an expansive 120-acre pine to hardwood bottom ecosystem, challenges members with a staggering array of offerings.

Highlights include:

  • Two Sporting Clay Courses: the 12-station Pine Course and the exclusive 14-station Oak Course for Members.
  • A Trap and Skeet field, 5-Stand experiences (including a Members-only 5-Stand), and a FITASC Field.
  • A 16-station Simulated Archery Hunting Course with 3D targets, plus stationary and known-distance archery fields, as well as ax-throwing stations.

Members also enjoy instruction from NSCA-certified professionals, monthly clinics, and tournaments. These world-class facilities make the Shooting Club both a place to refine skills and build camaraderie with a calendar full of social events throughout the year.

Wilson Landing Boat Club

The Wilson Landing Boat Club allows Members to embrace life on the water without the commitment of boat ownership. With access to a fleet of over 25 saltwater and freshwater vessels, Members can set out for fishing trips, leisurely cruises, or family adventures exploring the rivers and coastline. A lively social calendar ensures the boating community stays just as connected off the water as on it.

  • Eight Har-Tru tennis courts (four exhibition-size and lighted for evening play)
  • Six pickleball courts
  • Two bocce courts
  • Two pristine croquet lawns
  • Pavilion and verandas for socializing courtside

Weekly clinics, holiday round robins, and year-round private instruction foster both friendly competition and steady improvement.
