Palmetto Bluff

A 20,000-acre private community and luxury resort that represents the pinnacle of Lowcountry living — and one of the most beautiful places in South Carolina.

Palmetto Bluff is in a category of its own. A 20,000-acre master-planned community along the May River, it combines a world-class resort (the Inn at Palmetto Bluff, an Auberge property) with private residences, championship golf, a full-service marina, and miles of pristine Lowcountry landscape. Whether you're staying at the Inn or visiting for a meal, it's an experience unlike anything else in the region.

Luxury Stay

The Inn at Palmetto Bluff

An Auberge Resorts Collection property consistently ranked among the top resorts in the Southeast. Cottages and suites set among live oaks, with access to all resort amenities.

World-Class Golf

May River Golf Club

Jack Nicklaus Signature course winding through maritime forest and tidal marshes. One of the most scenic and challenging courses in the Lowcountry.

Spa & Dining

Canoe Club & Spa

The resort's spa and wellness center offers treatments inspired by Lowcountry botanicals and traditions. The Canoe Club restaurant is one of the best dining experiences in the region.

Wildlife

Nature & Wildlife

20,000 acres of protected Lowcountry landscape means extraordinary wildlife viewing — alligators, bald eagles, roseate spoonbills, and white-tailed deer are regular sightings.
