The Lowcountry's only car-free island address: no bridge, no public roads, reached by private ferry, where you trade the car for a golf cart at the dock.

Haig Point occupies the northern tip of Daufuskie Island, in Calibogue Sound between Hilton Head and Savannah, reachable only by the community's own private ferry. Fewer than three hundred homes sit across roughly one thousand acres, golf carts are the only vehicles, and the restored 1873 lighthouse anchors a property layered with Gullah Geechee heritage that gives Daufuskie a cultural depth the resort islands cannot manufacture. Days run to fishing and crabbing the Sound, riding at the equestrian center, and watching the sun set behind Harbour Town's lighthouse across the water.
A Rees Jones Signature course has earned national top-100 recognition, paired with an equestrian center, a deepwater marina, and a tennis program, and a member-approved investment of more than $40 million is upgrading the golf and amenities through 2029. Homes run from roughly $400K into the low seven figures, with interior lots that are inexpensive by luxury standards. The honest trade is the water: ferry dependence is total, and groceries, contractors, and even hurricane evacuation cross by boat, which is why the club stood up its own barge company to handle construction. For a buyer who treats the ferry as the price of genuine seclusion, nothing in the Lowcountry is more private.
The ferry is the front gate, and the island keeps its own time.
Cross on the club's private ferry, coffee on the top deck, Calibogue Sound doing its best impression of a commute.
Twenty-nine holes of Rees Jones, including the Signature course that launched his solo career. A phased renovation begins late 2026, so play greedily now.
Golf-cart touring is the local locomotion: the 1883 Bloody Point Lighthouse and its museum, Gullah history markers, sandy lanes under the oaks.
Club dining on property; for the counter-culture lunch, Old Daufuskie Crab Company at Freeport Marina, deviled crab and live music included.
The beach with nobody on it, then the late ferry back while the sound goes gold. The inconvenience is the moat, and the moat is the point.
Inventory inside these gates moves quietly, and the best of it often trades before it is broadly marketed. Ask us what is available in Haig Point this week, including what has not hit the portals.
