Description

Wachesaw Plantation Club membership is a coveted lifestyle amid coastal beauty and quiet. Members socialize and compete on a collection of standout amenities, including a Tom Fazio championship course that originally helped define Fazio’s signature style.

Perched on a high bluff overlooking the Intracoastal Waterway, Wachesaw Plantation is coursed with deep river waters that throughout its history has made it an ideal landing spot for people and supplies entering and leaving the area.

Anyone familiar with the community will attest to its aura of cultural and historic importance. Long before Europeans settled this area and began growing indigo and rice, Native Americans lived in villages along local waterways and marshes.

Wachesaw features an award-winning Tom Fazio golf course.

Wildlife was abundant and the tide-driven rivers and creeks made canoe travel easy. Age-old burial mounds discovered in the 1930s revealed pottery shards, tools, jewelry and skeletal remains.

Thanks to an extensive archaeological survey in the early 1980s, Wachesaw is one of the more thoroughly researched plantations in the South. During its early development in the 1990s, the community became the most studied architectural site in all of South Carolina.

A Club for All Seasons
Membership in the Wachesaw Plantation Club offers not only a superior liefstyle, but also a remarkable value.

The 18-hole championship golf course at Wachesaw Plantation Club ranks among Tom Fazio’s finest achievements. Rolling fairways weave among beautiful estate homes and cottages. At every turn, the Lowcountry landscape takes center stage.

Undulating greens, fringed bunkers and love-grass knolls establish a visual character Fazio himself dubbed “the Wachesaw look.” No. 18—atop a bluff overlooking the slow-moving Waccamaw—is called one of the most dramatic holes on the entire East Coast.

Over at the tennis center, spirited competition or nurturing instruction are the orders of the day. Like everything at Wachesaw, the tennis facilities also set an exacting standard. Eight Har-Tru courts include five that are lighted for evening play.

The tennis center has lighted courts for evening enjoyment.

The center is staffed with former European pro circuit players. There’s plenty of chances for serious competition as well as lighthearted rivalries. Programs for all ages and skill levels include men’s and ladies round robins and special curriculums for juniors.

Tailored for the discerning vacationer, a limited number of quaint cottages are available for nightly, weekly, monthly or annual rentals. These Lowcountry-style duplex town homes, beautifully decorated and fully equipped, appeal to families, wedding parties, golfing groups and vacationers yearning for a more distinctive destination.

World-Class Amenities
Start with golf and then let the pleasures of club membership flow onward. From the swimming pool complex with children’s pool area and hot tub to the world-class tennis facility to the privacy and serenity of Kimbels Restaurant, it’s an ideal club experience.

At Kimbel’s, members enjoy exclusive access to this elegantly casual dining facility. Located on the site of the original plantation home, on a river bluff, Kimbels boasts a breathtaking view of Tom Fazio’s famous eighteenth green and the Intracoastal.

Kimbel's visitors enjoy good food and Intracoastal views.

While a talented staff creates culinary masterpieces in the kitchen, boats of all shapes and sizes create postcard-perfect vistas on the Intracoastal Waterway. Great wine, food and the relaxing sounds of the historic river await you at Kimbels.

At the heart of the social life that surrounds the Club, Kimbels offers both formal and informal dining areas. Full banquet facilities accommodate an active social schedule. Member functions—from brunch specials and weekly Chef Specials to happy hours to dinner dances—are diverse and always changing.

A delightful Pool Complex sports a swimming pool and hot tub, a children’s pool for the younger set, a beautiful cabana for entertaining and expansive sun decks.

Pool complex extras include a hot tub and kids' pool.

For lazy afternoons and long weekends, there is simply no better spot to soak up a relaxing dose of Carolina sunshine. In the summertime, the Club has several pool activities including private swimming lessons for both adults and juniors and adult water aerobics.

About the Area
Wachesaw Plantation Club is located in the quaint, seaside, fishing village of Murrells Inlet near Pawleys Island, South Carolina.

Wacca Wache Marina, a freshwater haven for boaters, is conveniently located at Intracoastal Waterway Marker No. 57 on the Waccamaw River in Murrells Inlet, less than a mile from the gates of Wachesaw Plantation.

Tall cypress and oak trees draped in Spanish moss and grass covered picnic areas have made the marina property a popular recreation area. In addition to full service docks, wet slips, PWC slips and dry dock storage, boaters can enjoy the comfort and convenience of the Wacca Wache Marina store.

Brookgreen Gardens is a National Historic Landmark with one of the most significant collections of figurative sculpture by American artists in the world and has the only zoo accredited by the American Zoo and Aquarium Association on the coast of the Carolinas.

Within its 9,000 acres are the Lowcountry History and Wildlife Preserve, the Huntington Sculpture Garden and the Center for American Sculpture. Now celebrating its 75th Anniversary, Brookgreen Gardens offers exciting new exhibitions, programs and events.

Natural Treasures
Just minutes from Wachesaw Plantation Club, Huntington Beach offers its visitors the best preserved beach on the Grand Strand—three miles of uncrowded, secluded and natural beach landscape.

The park’s freshwater lagoon, salt marsh, maritime forest and beach are outstanding examples of the state’s natural coastal environment. These also provide such prime habitat for birds that the park is widely recognized as one of the best birding sites along the East Coast.

Huntington Beach is also the site of the historic “Atalaya” castle. The former winter home and studio of noted American sculptor, Anna Hyatt Huntington, and her husband, Archer Milton Huntington, Atalaya is also listed as a National Historic Landmark.

Although private and secluded, many conveniences are within five minutes of the plantation, including a grocery store, post office, hospital, churches, dry cleaners and banks.
