Grandeur, Golf and Grace
Small by comparison, with just over 630 acres, Long Cove is located off William Hilton Parkway, adjacent to Wexford Plantation on Hilton Head’s south end. Developed in 1981, and located along Broad Creek on the Intracoastal Waterway, the community was created to attract selective golfers seeking world-class golf and a private club lifestyle. Anchored by a Pete Dye masterpiece, the golf course spent 30 years as a Golf Digest “Top 100 Course” and is consistently ranked a top course in South Carolina. In addition to 24-hour gated security, superb golf and the 84-slip marina, Long Cove Club comprises a Tennis Center, community gardens and children’s playground, as well as year-round fishing, boating and kayaking, all within the gates.
Attractions
Long Cove is one of Hilton Head’s finest south end developments and most residents know their neighbors and enjoy the neighborhood. Golf is king in Long Cove, but certainly not the only activity for residents. Amenities and experiences available to members include fishing – salt water or community lagoons – water aerobics, garden clubs, bridge, book exchange, gardening at the “farm,” a dog park and a playground for children.
Golf – The par-71, 7,026 yard Long Cove golf course is a work of art. Designed by Pete Dye and set among 630 acres of moss-draped live oaks, stately pines, magnolias and sweeping vistas of saltwater marsh, the course is consistently ranked among the top in the nation. It is widely hailed as one of Dye’s best creations. In addition, Long Cove hosts the Annual Darius Rucker Intercollegiate at Long Cove golf tournament for the country’s top NCAA teams.
Tennis – The Long Cove Club Tennis Center is nestled among beautiful trees and includes eight Har-Tru courts, four lighted for night play, a well-appointed pro shop and a terrace for optimal viewing. Competitive leagues and instructional programs are popular among residents.
Marina – Tucked away deep into Long Cove is a “certified clean” private marina affording residents 35 boat slips at no additional charge, 35 kayak slips and 13 community-owned kayaks for residents and guests.
Pool, Gardens and Playground – Long Cove Club offers a Jr. Olympic sized pool in a lushly landscaped setting, locker rooms for men and women, an irrigated community farm with complimentary member plots, a dog park, and a children’s playground.
The elegant Long Cove Clubhouse recently underwent a $6.4 million renovation and expansion.

The facility was the winner of GOLF Inc.,’s Clubhouse Renovation of the Year.
