A Creek Runs Through It

DeBordieu is a truly unique oceanfront community located just north of Charleston, South Carolina featuring private golf and tennis, saltwater creek access to the ocean, a manned security gate, and luxury homes and villas surrounded by hundreds of acres of wildlife and nature preserves.

One of the most wonderful features DeBordieu offers is access to North Inlet, via the private boat landing available to DeBordieu property owners. Because of this boat landing, DeBordieu residents do not necessarily have to live right on the creek to enjoy boating and fishing in one of North America’s most pristine estuaries.

Now, if you would like to keep your boat in the creek behind your back yard, DeBordieu has a number of properties available that would allow you to do just that. Please click on the picture of the homes featured here for more details, or visit www.DeBordieu.com for a complete list of creek front homes.

Legend has it that when the Marquis de Lafayette made his South Carolina land fall on North Island during the American Revolution, and gazed upon creeks and marshlands of what is now DeBordieu, he was so enthralled by the natural beauty, he proclaimed that it must surely be the “borderland of God”, D’abord Dieu.

Local Restaurant Review - Alfresco

In addition to the fine dining and casual grills DeBordieu offers its members and guests, we’re so lucky to be just 4 miles from downtown Georgetown, SC, where there are quite a few wonderful restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner!

Today, I met a friend for lunch at a spot I had never heard of before….. ALFRESCO, a fairly new 28-seat bistro on Front Street.

Chef Eddys Chacon leads the culinary team at Alfresco with his wife, sous-chef Lisa Chacon. It’s a small, intimate place with very nice décor.

My friend and I tried the Goat Cheese Truffles for starters, which were great (and really cute), but I’m going for the Teriyaki Chicken Lettuce Wrap next time.

We both had salads, she had the California Cob, and I had the Tenderloin Cob. Both were excellent! I can’t wait to go back!

 

Alfresco Georgetown Bistro is located at 812 Front St. in Georgetown. The number is (843) 344-3869. It is open 11 a.m.-10 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays. Lunch is served until 3 p.m., and early dining specials are available from 3-5 p.m.

Happy Independence Day!

“You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness.  You may think you have overeaten, but it is patriotism.” ~ Erma Bombeck Happy Independence Day! Below are a few pictures and videos of the 4th of July Celebrations at DeBordieu  in the past.  Enjoy!

Salute from the Shore 2012

It’s a 3-peat with a nice twist! Back for the third year, Salute from the Shore is a spectacular, patriotic tribute from South Carolina to our troops. This year, veterans will be honored as well!

Salute from the Shore 2012 will happen on Independence Day, Wednesday, July 4, when beach goers from Little River to Hilton Head Island will wave American flags as four F-16 fighter jets from Shaw Air Force Base fly the length of the South Carolina coast!

Here at DeBordieu, everyone is asked to wear red, white and blue, as we wave a huge 30 x 60 ft. flag on the beach in front of the DeBordieu Beach Club. Here's a video from last year's Salute from the Shore. 

The  Air Force F-16s are flown by the 79th Fighter Squadron, “The Flying Tigers,” of the 20th Fighter Wing, stationed at Shaw Air Force Base. According to John Michael Otis, president of the Salute effort,   “this squadron was part of the last U.S. Armed Forces in Iraq. They flew air support while the ground forces closed the gates behind them, so we’re very honored to have them involved.”

But don’t stop waving when the planes fly over, because this year, following the jets, will be some private World War II aircraft, with several  veterans on board. They will start at about the same spot, and go from North Myrtle Beach to about Charleston or Folly Beach, depending on how far their fuel with stretch.

Here’s the approximate Salute from the Shore schedule:

·         North Myrtle Beach: 1:01 p.m.

·         Surfside Beach: 1:05 p.m.

·         Pawley’s Island: 1:08 p.m.

·         Isle of Palms: 1:18 p.m.

·         Folly Beach: 1:20 p.m.

·         Edisto Island: 1:25 p.m.

·         Hilton Head: 1:29 p.m.
