Top-Ranked for the Good Life
Consistently placing high in the
published ranking lists of preferred communities, Beaufort and
Dataw Island have been named among the top choices in the
nation for retirement living for many years.
Fortune
magazine, New Choices magazine, a Reader's Digest
publication, and Where to Retire magazine have all
singled out Dataw Island and the surrounding Beaufort area as
ideal places to purchase a vacation home or eventually retire
to. And in January 2004, Where to Retire named
Beaufort one of their eight "Great Low Tax
Towns."
Boats and yachts stand ready at the marina.
Island Golf
Dataw Island seems made for Lowcountry golf, and Cotton
Dike, the first golf course created here, had the perfect
designer for the job, Tom Fazio. An experienced architect who
has made a name for himself for the waterfront courses he has
designed, Fazio took particular advantage of an unusual
landscape coaxed out of the Carolina marshes by a series of
dikes which were originally intended to create more land for
cotton fields during the great
Plantation days of Dataw
Island.
Tight fairways demand practice time on the driving range.
Almost half of the 18 holes lie along the
marsh and Jenkins Creek, a wonderful contrast of the natural
beauty of the Lowcountry and the precision design of the
Cotton Dike course. Of course, with so many natural watery
hazards, the 18 holes of Cotton Dike require thoughtful
strategy and consistent accuracy.
Morgan
River, the second course built at
Dataw
Island, is a striking example of
Arthur
Hills' handiwork. Narrower than Cotton Dike, the
Morgan
River
course demands even greater accuracy, but well rewards every
disciplined shot. The beauty of the course is dramatic with
breaks in stands of massive oaks creating frames for water
views of the
Morgan
River
and the savannahs beyond.

The Expanded Clubhouse
Dataw Island's expanded Clubhouse is designed to serve as the heart
of this warm, friendly and active community. Its sweeping
staircases and tall windows recall the best traditions of the Lowcountry
and its relaxed style of living.
Just beyond the Clubhouse there are eight
Har-Tru tennis courts, two championsip-caliber lawn croquet
courts and an outdoor pool.
The newly expanded clubhouse.
Fitness fanatics take note: the new
Community/Fitness Center includes an Aerobic/Exercise Studio with a
specially designed floor that cushions even high impact
activity, making workouts easier on the knees, ankles and other
joints. Dataw already offers regular aerobics classes and the
expanded studio will help provide a wider range of class times
and activities.
The Weight Room offers a huge
variety, from treadmills and stairclimbers to free weights and
a wide selection of weight machines. Ease post-exercise aches
and pains in the whirlpool.
The Pub.
A new
year-round pool, covered and heated, enables residents to
enjoy lap and recreations swimming, water aerobics, physical
therapy exercise and water sports any time.
The Community/Fitness Center also
offers a library with space to exhibit arts and crafts and
multi-purpose activity rooms designed to hold small meetings,
card parties, or craft and hobby groups such as quilting,
needlework, book and investment clubs and flower arrangers.
The new Community Center includes comprehensive fitness
facilities.
With average yearly temperatures of 65
degrees and 230 days of sunshine, Dataw offers a superb
location in which to enjoy four distinct seasons and the
benefits of country club living year round.
