In 2025, Palmetto Bluff welcomed new neighbors and old friends, groundbreakings, and long-awaited openings. From inspired Club gatherings and elevated programming to the creation of our latest golf course, the year was defined by connection and excitement for what is to come. Across Conservancy outings, Artists in Residence workshops, and countless moments shared throughout the property, residents and guests deepened their ties to the Lowcountry and to one another. It was a year marked by growth, gratitude, and the enduring magic of life at the Bluff.
Anson Point
Poised to become a timeless addition to our world-class golf offerings, the new Coore & Crenshaw-designed Anson Point golf course took meaningful shape this year. Thoughtfully integrated into its natural surroundings, with preserved wildlife corridors, native plantings, and no residential development, the course promises a pure and immersive playing experience. We look forward to its highly anticipated opening in early 2026.

The launch of the Inspiring the Arts Scholarship further underscored a year of national recognition and meaningful local impact.
The Grove & Growth in Moreland Forest
Nestled within the natural expanse of Moreland Forest, The Grove is approaching a meaningful milestone: only one home remains available in this intimate enclave, offering a final opportunity to join a neighborhood shaped by thoughtful design and an inherent connection to the land. Beyond The Grove, Moreland Forest continues to evolve with the release of new homesites and the promise of future amenities. With the Palmetto Bluff Club Fitness Center at the Citadel and Anson Point on the horizon for 2026, this stretch of the Bluff is emerging as its natural center.
