WelcomeBerkeley Hall Club is a private gated golf community edged on the banks of the pristine Okatie River in the heart of the Coastal Lowcountry - a world with a casual, inviting lifestyle that sets the standard for all private communities.

Our 980-acre property is unique among top private golf communities. With two world-class Tom Fazio golf courses and a stunning Jeffersonian-style clubhouse that form the "Core" of the community, the 554 homes/home sites are arranged around the 36 holes' perimter allowing two walkable classic courses that feel more like a golf retreat. The community offers generous home setbacks; including beautiful lagoons, strategic live oaks and lolloby pines which all accentuate the course routings. Mr. Fazio sums up the Berkeley Hall golf experience as "every round feels like a walk in the park.."

Member-owned and operated since January 2005, Berkeley Hall is debt-free and maintains a multi-million dollar capital reserve. In addition, the Club follows a fiscally responsible 5-year plan with no foreseeable need for assessments in the future.

VISION STATEMENTBerkeley Hall's guiding vision is to be recognized as one of the top residential golf communities in the Southeast region of the US and will distinguish itself by:

• Attaining the highest membership satisfaction among peer golf communities• Delivering financial sustainability and economic value for its members• Enhancing the natural beauty and pristine environment of the Club • Sustaining the strong sense of fellowship among its members • Supporting the greater Bluffton community through the active participation of its members

Berkeley Hall’s Rich HistoryLord John Berkeley of Stratton, an English army officer and colonial proprietor of the 17th Century, was one of seven original lords of the Carolina colonies.

Rewarded for his steadfast loyalty to the King of England and the royal family, Berkeley (along with first cousin John Colleton) was granted extraordinary powers to grant “title of honor” to hundreds of thousands of acres of land.

In January 1665, the lord proprietors issued a document to allow early Carolina settlers self-government, freedom of religion and generous land grants. Berkeley and other lords were entrusted with the “full and absolute power” to determine the constitution and approbation of the provinces.

Lord Berkeley’s influence and leadership were instrumental in the export of Sea Island cotton from Barbados and the Bahamas to the Carolinas. The development of the cotton trade aided the settlement of Beaufort County, where cotton was the primary crop. Because of the role Berkeley played in the history of this part of South Carolina, the Berkeley family crest has been adopted as the logo for Berkeley Hall and the Berkeley Hall Club.

The Center of ParadisePicture a place so peaceful, so scenic, and yet so full of life it not only draws you back year after but also seems to seep into your very soul. The natural beauty of the Lowcountry is as legendary as its gentle climate, breathtaking beaches, and the treasures of its historic coastal towns. The pace of life is slower in the Lowcountry. People are warm, friendly and easy to know. For many, the region is the getaway destination of choice, but for a fortunate few, it is home.

Berkeley Hall, edged on the banks of the pristine Okatie River, is set on nearly 1,000 unspoiled acres in the heart of the Lowcountry. The community is ideally located – just minutes from Hilton Head Island, within a half hour’s drive of historic Beaufort, South Carolina and Savannah, Georgia; and within two short hours of Charleston – offering an endless universe of world-class cuisine, shopping, and attractions combined with fine Southern charm.

Voted “One of America’s 100 Premier Properties” by both Links Magazine and Travel & Leisure Golf, Berkeley Hall is a private world with a casual, inviting lifestyle that sets the standard for all private communities. Its surroundings, its natural beauty, and the way the place lives are simply beyond compare.

36-Holes of Fazio “Core” GolfGreat golf is the very heart of Berkeley Hall, and golf in its purest form awaits you at the most distinguished private golf club community in golf-rich Hilton Head. With no interior homes or roads, two Tom Fazio “core golf” courses meander through an open coastal landscape framed by seaside grasses. A round of golf feels like a walk in the park rather than a ride through a subdivision. Dramatic elevation changes, beautiful water features, and bold, strategic bunkering showcase the designer’s artistry.

“The North Course at Berkeley Hall is one of the finest and most dramatic courses I have ever designed.” ~ Tom Fazio

The North Course is a marvel of tranquil lakes, bold fairways, challenging bunkers and large contoured Champion Bermudagrass greens. The combination of elevation changes, open vistas, native grasses, water features and strategically placed bunkers give the North Course an unmatched beauty of its own.

“We may have saved the best for last.” ~ Tom Fazio on the South Course

The South Course offers a classic parkland golf experience, with a canopy of mature forest and a backdrop of the meandering Okatie River. Tree-lined fairways, glistening lakes and boldly contoured green complexes create a dramatic and challanging Lowcountry beauty.
