One of the prettiest resorts in the south, Wild Dunes is home to championship golf, top rated tennis and a plethora of beach resort amenities. Not into golf? Waterfront property at Wild Dunes Resort offers quick access to the Intracoastal Waterway for boating and is adjacent to two full service marinas. Keep your bathing suit close at hand because when you're not on a boat or on the links, the Wild Dunes lifestyle revolves around the soothing Atlantic Ocean and six miles of pristine white sandy Charleston beaches.

Wild Dunes Resort is located on a barrier island 15 miles northeast of downtown. The Isle of Palms is a more laid back barrier island, unlike Folly Beach. Living here offers the combination of a gated community and a vacation beach lifestyle. You'll find a large selection of affordable luxury beach homes. The AAA Four Diamond rated hotel named The Boardwalk Inn is the central hub of resort activities, although property owners do have a private Beach Clubhouse for social functions. The Grand Pavilion Cafe & Bar overlooks six miles of the cleanest beaches in Charleston South Carolina. Bicycles are available to rent from the boardwalk and are fun for folks to ride on the hard sandy beach.

One of the most popular resorts in the south began construction in the mid 1970s. You will find a combination of new Key West style homes on Waterway Island and older traditional-style homes which may need updating. The community sprawls over 1,600 acres and has approximately 2,300 homes built to date among 18 neighborhoods. Many of them are luxury beach homes. As a popular vacation resort too, many families rent out their beachfront villas seasonally to vacation travelers. Beachgoers, boaters, and golfers alike can't help but cherish living in one of America's best beach towns. As you would expect, the social club calendar is packed with fun family activities.

Wild Dunes Resort does not require property owners to become golf club members. There are four types of club membership: 1) Golf/Tennis/Swim-Social Membership 2) Golf/Swim-Social Membership 3) Tennis/Swim-Social Membership 4) Swim-Social Membership. The HOA fees are reasonable starting at $748 per year making this oceanfront Low Country real estate development one of the most affordable South Carolina coastal communities.
