DeBordieu Fabulous Feature #3 - the Creek!
Legend has it that when the Marquis de Lafayette sailed into North Inlet during the American Revolution, and gazed upon the land that 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.
DeBordieu is a truly unique oceanfront community located just south of Pawleys Island, 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 fabulous 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 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.

Fabulous Feature #2 - The Beach

DeBordieu’s Fabulous Feature #2 – The Beach!
We’re talking about the BENEFITS that come with each of DeBordieu’s unique features. Today, DeBordieu’s, beautiful beach!

Whether you walk on it, sit on it, or just like to look at it, living in a community that has access to a beach is very important to many people who choose South Carolina for their permanent residence, or second home.

The beach at DeBordieu stretches from Pawleys Inlet to North Inlet. It’s six and a half miles long, uncrowded and gorgeous. You really have to see it to appreciate just how special it is.

DeBordieu fronts 2 miles of this oceanfront land, has access to two miles to the north, in front of Arcadia Plantation and Prince George, and two and a half miles to the south, in front of Hobcaw Barony, the nature preserve next door, which will never be developed. When you walk on this particular part of the beach, there are no homes.

In fact, there is not another oceanfront home for 60 miles until you get down to Charleston due to all of the protected barrier islands south of DeBordieu.

While many folks choose to live right on the beach, like those in the homes featured on this page, it’s nice that at DeBordieu, you don’t have to live directly ON the beach to enjoy it. In addition to the number of beach accesses on the island, DeBordieu Club features a 10-acre beach club devoted to fun and merrymaking. Many DeBordieu residents enjoy hopping on their golf cart, and following the nature trail to the beach club where they can spend time with their family building a sand castle on the beach, swimming at one of the pools, sipping a cocktail at the Tiki Hut Bar, or dining overlooking the ocean. (Click on the pics with arrows for information on ocean front homes available for sale.)

The beach at DeBordieu will play a big part in the economic recovery of the local real estate market that is underway. It’s been said that communities that feature natural amenities, like the beaches at DeBordieu, Pawleys Island and Litchfield will recover more quickly than some of the other communities that are seen as more risky options. We’re seeing that recovery beginning to happen now, but it’s still a “Buyer’s Market.” Even though we’ve seen an increase in interest levels, prices remain stable and have not started increasing ……………….YET.

DeBordieu's Fabulous Feature #1 - LOCATION

This week I’m going to talk about the BENEFITS of the FEATURES that make DeBordieu Colony one of South Carolina’s most-loved, oceanfront, golf communities.
DeBordieu Fabulous Feature #1 – LOCATION
DeBordieu is located 7 miles south of Pawleys Island, South Carolina, a charming beach community with plenty of shopping, dining, and entertainment opportunities, which means that from your home in DeBordieu, you won’t have to travel very far to get groceries, gas for your boat, or a new beach chair to take with you on the beach.
DeBordieu is just 3 miles north of Georgetown, an historic seaport community that offers tours of historic homes dating back to the 1700s, picturesque riverfront dining, and a great hospital, which means you will have the security of knowing that when you or a member of your family is in need of medical assistance, it’s just right down the street.
Romantic Charleston, with its exceptional assortment of restaurants, shopping, historic sites and cultural events, is just an hour and a half south of DeBordieu’s main gate. Many DeBordieu residents think nothing of zipping down to Charleston for an exciting day of shopping or an evening dinner and show.
Myrtle Beach and its convenient airport, is about 45 minutes north of DeBordieu offering its own amazing array of dining establishments, shopping, nightlife, live entertainment theaters and more than 100 championship golf courses. Many flights in and out of Myrtle Beach offer discounted airfares to major metropolitan areas in the northeast.
Between these two very different coastal cities you’ll find quiet fishing villages, pristine beaches, a national forest and seashore, dozens of antebellum plantations, the largest outdoor sculpture garden in America and, most importantly, DeBordieu.
As wonderfully secluded and quiet as DeBordieu is, when you own a home here, you will not run short of things to do and see. The location is perfect! Click on the pictures for details about the homes.
