The Neighborhood: May River Forest is located along the fringes of the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course. This property overlooks the golf course, and the ebb and flow of the tides in the salt marsh along the May River. The Maritime Forest, trail system, salt marshes and inland lakes are all part of the dramatic landscape. May River Forest homes connect to Wilson Village and other neighborhoods both by road and by trail. It pulses with activity, yet never loses sight of the rare and fragile natural resources that are its reason for being.
Wilson Village: The Village serves as the “heartbeat” of Palmetto Bluff, and the vital element which makes it both different and real. Centerpiece of the Village is The Inn at Palmetto Bluff, managed by Auberge Resorts, one of the world’s foremost operators of luxury hotels.
Wilson Landing and Ships Store: Located just north of the Wilson Village Center, Wilson Landing is for boat owners who want a safe haven for their vessel and quick access to the pristine Lowcountry waterways, Wilson Landing is the ideal site. Located on the May River, with Skull Creek, the Cooper River, Calibogue Sound and the Atlantic Ocean all close at hand, Palmetto Bluff is an outstanding central location from which to base your boating activities. The Ships Store at Wilson Landing is the “outdoor concierge” for property owners and guests serving as the center for marine activities, education and outdoor recreation.
Canoe Club: The Canoe Club Pool and Fitness Center features a casual dining restaurant offering a variety of fresh seafood and local specialties; docks with access to the May River and the Palmetto Bluff Water Trail; family-friendly pool facilities including a main pool with lanes, a smaller recreational pool, a hot tub and a kiddie pool; a fitness center with state-of-the-art cardiovascular and weight equipment; a movement studio for exercise and yoga and Pilates classes; men’s and women's locker rooms; and a “game deck” for table tennis, pool, checkers, chess, and foosball.
Wilson Lawn & Racquet Club: The expansive Wilson Lawn & Racquet Club facility includes eight Har-Tru ® tennis courts, two regulation croquet lawns, two bocce courts, four courtside shelters and a Pro Shop with a pavilion and locker room. Wilson Lawn & Racquet Club blends gracefully into its natural surroundings, which include a healthy population of pine and live oak that provide shade and ambiance.
Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course: Jack Nicklaus has carefully woven a Signature Golf Course into the fabric of Palmetto Bluff. Winding past shady live oaks and palmettos along the high bluffs of the May River, golfers enjoy the game in peace and serenity, interrupted only by the sights and sounds of nature.
Boating and Fishing: With miles of smooth uninterrupted waterways, the scenic rivers and creeks that surround Palmetto Bluff is a paddlers’ paradise. In addition, miles of interior freshwater trails will connect the Village to other neighborhoods as well as the Bluff’s eastern shore. The May River gives power boaters’ access to the Intracoastal Waterway allowing safe and enjoyable excursions to nearby Hilton Head Island and the historic cities of Beaufort, SC and Savannah, GA. In recent years, the Carolina Lowcountry has staked its reputation as one of America's prime sport fisheries. Saltwater fly-fishing on the area's expansive salt marsh flats, in particular, has gained national recognition. Speckled Trout, Flounder, Sheepshead and Black Drum also abound in local waters. Tarpon are abundant June through September, and May brings the world's largest migration of Cobia up the Broad River.
Trails and Nature: All residential neighborhoods, the Inn, the Golf Club, the Canoe Club, are linked through a series of historic roads, paths and an innovative network of freshwater trails. This intricate trail system will allow residents to reach their destinations by bicycle, foot, boat, horseback, golf cart or automobile. Certainly the most distinctive of these trails are the waterways, which will provide access to all parts of the island.
River Road Preserve: The 120-acre River Road Preserve is a natural haven for wildlife and sits on the eastern edge of Palmetto Bluff and fronts both the May River and the Cooper River. An extensive trail system and park-like infrastructure includes observation posts, interpretive signage, comfort stations, docks along the water trail and many other innovative trail features, including a canopy walk through the trees.
Nature Programs: A primary goal of the Palmetto Bluff Conservancy is to educate residents through programs and activities. An expansive calendar of activities has been developed offering programs six days a week that will familiarize you with the natural history of Palmetto Bluff and the Lowcountry.
Equestrian – Longfield Stables: Longfield Stables offers diversified programs and activities of all equestrian disciplines for property owners and guests within a rural Lowcountry landscape.

Palmetto Bluff Conservancy: The Palmetto Bluff Conservancy was created to ensure the conservation vision for this place. One important aspect of the Palmetto Bluff Conservancy is to manage the property such that it will maintain and enhance its biodiversity. Palmetto Bluff has been managed for timber, agriculture and wildlife for hundreds of years. Traditional land and wildlife management techniques such as hunting, prescribed burning, wildlife food plots and timber stand improvement have all been employed to maximize the diversity of our landscape. These efforts continue under the management of the Palmetto Bluff Conservancy, even in many areas which are rarely visited, such as conservation areas, nature preserves, interpretive trails, wetlands and pre-development locations.
