Welcome to the heart

of the Lowcountry

Palmetto Bluff is a community unlike any that has come before it: a vast and vibrant place enriched by wilderness and wildlife, unspoiled rivers and salt marshes, and the sounds and smells of nature. This extraordinary land is the platform for Palmetto Bluff’s higher purpose: to allow people to experience the magic of the Lowcountry in its ultimate form.

Our Mission

Palmetto Bluff is a vibrant settlement where a diverse group of people create their own legacy of living well — by connecting to themselves, their families and other people through self-discovery, sincere interactions with each other, close contact with nature, authentic roots in history and an openness to new ideas — while enjoying the best of classic Lowcountry traditions within a majestic, beautiful, stimulating and protected environment.
