Daufuskie Island Resort Goes to Auction

This resort and its amenities are being sold in auction to the highest bidder.  Daufuskie Island sits just off Hilton Head and has about 300 families living there.  It has not yet really seen development.  I believe as the internet continues to allow business people to live almost anywhere, this Island will develop because it is relatively inexpensive.  The island is located in the geographic center of Savannah, Bluffton and Hilton Head.  It’s natural beauty is unmatched and the amenities include 2-18 golf courses, development rights, restaurants, lodging and conference facilities. 

Please let me know if you have interest or know someone that might.  My email is robbie@robbiebunting.com or you can call me direct at 800-932-3652.  Please contact me for a review of the property and to schedule a tour.   See the link for more information:  http://www.jpking.com/auctions/821/finalwebdibroch.pdf

Ghost Tours On Daufuskie Island

Ghost tours are beginning to take off with the nip of Fall in the air. Tours depart Salty Fare next to the Boathouse Grill.

  • $95.00 includes a sunset tour, wine tasting at the Silver Dew Winery and tour by old Low-Country Joe.
  • $50.00 for Daufuskie residents and folks on the Island
  • Tours include high end golf carts

Low Country Joe does the “experience”. This is not recommended for small children or the faint of heart. Joe will go deep into character, and speak in many tongues including Cherokee. He even has scared himself on these tours.  You can make your reservations by contacting Joe Yocius via email at joe@lowcountryjoe.com

 

New Daufuskie Water Taxi

Most of you rented your golf carts from Brit Moon or his assistant, Jan Crosby, when you were on the Island this past year. Brit has recently started an alternative water taxi from Hilton Head and Day trips to Savannah. While the Freeport Ferry is a larger, commercial boat, the schedules do not always fit into the visitors’ schedule and the baggage charges can get oppressive if you pack heavy.  The rates he is offering are flexible depending upon how many passengers and runs he has going. He suggests calling him directly to discuss your time and rate needs when booking. The embarkation locations will be different than the one used for Freeport departures and arrivals.Make sure to discuss that as well. (843-415-5676)

Fall Fly Fishing Trips

If you are interested in Fall Fly Fishing, contact Captain Greg Davis(912-398-8134) on his 26 foot center console boat tooling the rivers just around the Island.  The marshes are breathtaking and the wildlife abundant.
