HAIG POINT 
Those who seek the ultimate in privacy and luxury - and a remote barrier island lifestyle, should consider Haig Point. A masterful blend of resort-style amenities with the natural surroundings of Daufuskie Island, Haig Point is an exclusive enclave accessible only by private ferry. It is one of three private country club communities on the Island and the only one that is purely residential.
Sprawling over 1,050 acres of dense forest, this seaside community is located on the Island’s northern tip. Stately oaks, tall pines and dazzling magnolias, combined with incomparable ocean views, provide some of the most breathtaking scenery imaginable. Extreme care has been taken to integrate the community with the environment. Some claim that Haig Point may have even improved upon it.
In keeping with the Island’s historical tradition, no automobiles are permitted on Haig Point. When not on foot, electric cart, bicycle, horseback or horse-drawn carriage are the preferred modes of transportation. And then there are the amenities.
Residents and guests of Haig Point enjoy superior beach club and tennis facilities. There is a croquet lawn, an equestrian stable and a critically acclaimed golf course. Due to its seaside location, fishing, crabbing and boating are part of the Haig Point lifestyle.
THE RESIDENTSWhile the climate at Haig Point makes it an appropriate choice year round, many make Haig Point their second home, spending long weekends and vacations here. Others say that they can’t bear to leave and make Haig Point their primary residence.
THE NEIGHBORHOODIn keeping with the Island’s cultural and historical heritage, homes are designed to reflect the gracious Lowcountry tradition of the Sea Islands. There are a number of options available including single-family dwellings, townhomes and golf cottages. Carefully placed homesites also provide the opportunity to build a custom designed home. Views from homesites include the Calibogue Sound, fairways and the ocean beyond.
Osprey Island is the section of Haig Point that features Charleston-style courtyard townhomes and are available in five different floor plans from two to four bedrooms. Golf Cottages reminiscent of a New England village, are yet another option. These two, three and four bedroom cottages are designed to be low-maintenance and border fairways and lagoons.

HAIG POINT GOLF CLUBNamed as one of Golf Digest’s Top 100, Haig Point offers a championship Rees Jones-designed course. Ranking as one of the top courses in the country and Number #2 in South Carolina, this private facility has an unusual number of holes - 29. (The members requested two optional holes for the two toughest holes.) Rees Jones, the renowned golf architect, has blended oceanside with pristine forests, vast wetlands, majestic oaks and enough character for several courses. Since this club lies on an almost untouched barrier island, the availability of virginal forests and wetland has allowed the designer to carve out a memorable design. Every hole has been carefully selected to maximize the beauty of the setting. The course ambles from the Atlantic Ocean through sea forests and along wide vistas of salt march. The variety of the course is achieved through alternate tee and hole selection, accommodating every golfer’s game.
