Waterfront breakfast and lunch dining. Located in Wilson Village, one of the most charming little villages in SC. You won't be disappointed with the food, charm or vistas! Take an idyllic walk along the riverfront after dining.

Authentic Southern cooking. You’ll feel like you’re out in rural SC enjoying Momma’s home cooking, but you’re only two minutes from Old Town Bluffton. Great food! Come hungry—the portions are big.

Entertainment & Activities

If you love the water, you've got to take advantage of all this company has to offer--fishing where you actually catch fish (trout, reds, flounder and even sharks!), paddleboarding and boat tours of the May River (see dolphins and shore birds). When our family visits, the fishing is the highlight of their time here--ask for Allick Inglis.

The May River may have been created by God just for kayaking! One really fun thing is to kayak to one of the local sandbars and have a picnic.

Explore the May River. You'll probably get up close and personal with dolphins, the gentle giants of the river.

Recently named the South’s Best Small Town by Southern Living, Historic Beaufort showcases coastal living at its finest with its charming antebellum homes and beautiful views of the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. We love to spend an afternoon starting with lunch at one of many great restaurants followed by a bit of shopping and a walk along the river in the Henry Chamber Waterfront Park.

Travel & Leisure Magazine for three years in a row has ranked Hilton Head Island as the #1 Island in the Continental United States. The places to visit are Harbour Town in the gated community of Sea Pines (there is a nominal fee to get through the gate, and it's worth every penny!). Harbour Town is super for sight-seeing, restaurants and shopping. Also go to Shelter Cove Harbor which, like Harbour Town, is super for sightseeing, restaurants and shopping. And of course you need to get out to the beach. One of our favorites is Bradley Beach.
