Living in Dataw Island

Two championship golf courses, one by Tom Fazio and one by Arthur Hills, anchor this gated Sea Island community accessible via Lady's Island, about 15 minutes from downtown Beaufort. Golf-view properties start in the mid-$300s and waterfront estates reach $1M+. Alongside the golf, there's a full-service marina, tennis and pickleball courts, a fitness center, swimming pools, and a clubhouse with dining. The setting of live oaks, marsh views, and waterfront homesites draws active retirees and buyers who want a private club lifestyle at gentler prices than Hilton Head. The community keeps a full social calendar, and residents tend to know their neighbors.
