History

Moss Creek has provided families a private Lowcountry club lifestyle for nearly 50 years — one of the first gated residential club communities established on the Bluffton side of the Hilton Head Island bridge. The community occupies over 1,000 acres along Mackay Creek, the tidal waterway that runs between Hilton Head Island and the mainland. Its two Fazio-designed golf courses — Devil's Elbow North (Tom Fazio) and Devil's Elbow South (George Fazio) — wind through maritime forest and along Mackay Creek's salt marshes, earning Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary certification in 2012. The Tom Fazio North Course layout meanders through ancient live oaks and views of the Intracoastal-connected waterway. In 2022, the National Wildlife Federation designated the entire community a Community Wildlife Habitat. Moss Creek's equestrian center is among the few in coastal South Carolina gated communities.

Architecture & Housing Stock

Moss Creek is the first off-island Lowcountry community immediately after crossing the bridge from Hilton Head Island — a gated enclave of over 1,000 acres along Mackay Creek, bordered on one side by more than 1,200 acres of permanent nature preserve. The community has provided families a private club lifestyle for nearly 50 years. Its two Fazio-designed golf courses — Devil's Elbow North (Tom Fazio) and Devil's Elbow South (George Fazio) — both hold Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary certification since 2012. Amenities are exceptional for a private community of its size: 7 Har-Tru tennis courts, 4 pickleball courts, 3 pools (including a beach-entry pool), a private marina with boat slips, an equestrian center with jumps and boarding, and 20+ clubs. In 2022, the National Wildlife Federation recognized Moss Creek as a Community Wildlife Habitat.
