It’s been a year since Palmetto Bluff was acquired by Southstreet Partners, the largest owner and operator of private club residential and resort communities in the Southeast. And what a year it’s been.

This picturesque community has been infused with a new vitality. Recognizing the growing demands for community enhancements at all levels, Southstreet Partners has expanded programming, introduced new amenities at both the Club and resort and reimagined existing spaces—while still respecting the 20,000 acres of pristine land surrounding it.

Starting with the grand opening of Flame Food Truck in May, the community has seen a record number of Club enhancements over the past few months:

Club Updates
The lower level of the Canoe Club will be upfitted for enhanced Outside Palmetto Bluff space as well as Palmetto Bluff Club offices.

While Palmetto Bluff Club members enjoy special privileges across the property, membership in the Palmetto Bluff Club means more than the chance to enjoy exceptional club amenities. It’s a culture that nurtures a sense of belonging and connectivity among members—many who come from all points of the globe to live the best of the Lowcountry.

We look forward to sharing more updates with you soon!
