Sea Oak opens on Daufuskie Island

Wow, talk about seclusion. A new retreat has been opened on Daufuskie Island that requires you to take a ferry to the island, since no cars are allowed here. This one-of-a-kind home offers the style and charm an English manor and was originally built as a clubhouse in the early 1990s. The place offers a grand room with amazing views of the ocean, coffered ceilings, two brick fireplaces, leather furniture, three dining tables which will seat 15, and a wet bar. This would be the ideal spot for a large family reunion, wedding, golf group, or corporate retreat.

There are eight spacious bedrooms, with four on each floor, and all are approximately the same size. They are all furnished with two queen beds, armoires, TVs and private baths.

But the most outstanding feature of the manor is the spectacular stretch of beach. As far as you can see in either direction the beach gently slopes down to the Atlantic Ocean. Sit and enjoy the pods of dolphins swimming by and the pelicans diving in pursuit of a nice meal.

This sounds like an amazing place to get away from reality for a bit and relax with not a care in the world.

On Tuesday, October 9, 2006 a small wedding and reception were held at Guscio 9 on Hilton Head Island. With special permission from Hilton Head Rentals and Golf and the property owner, an afternoon ceremony on the beach united Diana and Shannon. The bride and groom have been kind enough to share a few pictures with us.  Congratulations and Good Luck Diana and Shannon from all of us here at Hilton Head Rentals and Golf.

The Par King and the Golfing Goddess played this course on Wednesday. It’s a delightful track. There are some very easy and some very difficult holes, but all of them are enjoyable. Beautiful rolling fairways add to the esthetic value while undulating greens and strategically placed bunkers add to the frustration level.

The Pro Shop is extremely well stocked and the entire staff, down to the cart attendants, are very helpful. All the courses in Palmetto Dunes now have “air conditioned carts”. A small pump is mounted on each side of the cart. When you sit down, a fine mist of water is sprayed onto the back of your neck. You can adjust the hose to hit different parts of your body and it also has a low,
medium and high setting. It made my day a little better considering the temperature was in  the low 90’s that day. This course should be on your list of “must play” when you’re on Hilton Head. See you next time.
