Daufuskie Island, South Carolina

CLUB OVERVIEW

Haig Point (the Club) is a private, member‑owned club and coastal community located on Daufuskie Island in the heart of South Carolina’s Lowcountry, just across the water from Hilton Head Island. Accessible exclusively by boat, the Club operates within a distinctive, bridgeless island setting that shapes both the member experience and the organization’s day‑to‑day operations. A dedicated mainland embarkation center and ferry system connects members, staff, and guests to the island, creating a self‑contained environment defined by privacy and a strong sense of community.

At its core, the Club is built around a nationally recognized 29‑hole Rees Jones‑designed golf offering, supported by practice facilities and a full‑service golf operation. The Club’s lifestyle extends well beyond golf, with multiple dining venues ranging from the Clubhouse to the beachfront Calibogue Club, complemented by resort‑style pools, a fitness center, and a racquets program. Additional assets include the historic Strachan Mansion, ferry and transportation operations, docks and boating facilities, and an equestrian center. Together, these elements create a multifaceted club and community with a broad operational scope, an engaged membership, and a reputation as one of the Southeast’s most compelling private destinations.
