FRIPP ISLAND
Blending the secluded serenity of barrier-island living with the quality
amenities of a stylish resort, Fripp Island is an exclusive coastal property
only 19 miles from historic downtown Beaufort, SC.
The private, 3,000-acre island community is part of a pristine wildlife
sanctuary where giant sea turtles come ashore throughout summer months to
lay eggs along miles of sandy beach, where surrounding marshes and tidal
wetlands are filled with graceful herons and egrets, and whose stunning
beachfront sunrises and sunsets are enhanced by playful dolphins in the
surf.
Along with the natural pleasures of its bountiful paradise, Fripp Island
offers the luxury of two 18-hole championship golf courses. Golf Digest has
rated Fripp's Ocean Creek Golf Course with 4.5 stars, and the island's ocean
Point Golf Links with 4 stars. Visitors and residents at Fripp can also
enjoy championship tennis with the community's 10-court racquet club,
sport-fishing and boat rental at the island's deep-water marina, as well as
a full range of outdoor activities along leisure trails, seaside swimming
pools, and incoming waves on the beach.
Homesites on Fripp Island start in the $180,000 range, and houses and villas
begin in the $240's. Incorporating architectural standards with the
surrounding coastal environment, Fripp Island maintains an esthetic appeal
that has lured Hollywood movie makers for several major productions,
including Forrest Gump, Prince of Tides and The Jungle Book.
With ocean-front dining, boutique shopping, and a vacation-like atmosphere,
Fripp Island's quiet beauty and stylish amenities offer an ideal escape back
to the simple pleasures of life.
