It all starts with the land.

The 20,000-acre tract known as Palmetto Bluff extends from the headwaters of the May River near the town of Bluffton, skirts Bull and Daufuskie islands via the Cooper River to its east and gives way finally to the ancient freshwater rice fields of the New River along its western edge.

Indulge in the sporting life.

Whether it is the serenity of a nature walk through the River Road Preserve, the challenge of testing your skills at the Shooting Club or the excitement in your child’s eyes when you help them catch their first largemouth bass, Palmetto Bluff offers the best outdoor experiences of the Lowcountry.

32 miles of waterfront.

Cast a line into one of our many ponds and lakes or in the May River. Explore the water trails in your own kayak or canoe — or be a little more adventurous and grab a paddleboard. If you prefer a slower-paced waterfront activity, pack a picnic basket and relax on a unique beach that nature hides with the tides.

Satisfy your palate.

It is difficult to choose from the diverse cuisines available at Palmetto Bluff’s many eateries. Begin your day with some griddle-cooked favorites and lively conversations. Enjoy lunch and dinner that caters to your whims, from simple-but-spectacular soups and salads all the way to five-course meals and fireside s’mores.

A feast for the eyes.

The diverse and sophisticated palette of the arts begins with the personalities who bring their passion to the Bluff. From our concert series to our Artist in Residence program, there is no shortage of opportunities to open your eyes and ears.

Be well.

Lowcountry beauty is best enjoyed by a healthy body, mind and spirit. Palmetto Bluff keeps you connected to your conditioning with modern fitness centers, a movement studio, heated Horizon lap pools overlooking the scenic May River and the award-winning Spa Montage.

Create more memories that matter.

When you’re done communing with nature and enjoying Lowcountry hospitality, we’ll keep your calendar full with a variety of special events to challenge, relax and entertain you.
