Two Tom Fazio-designed courses, marsh-front views across the Intracoastal, and an equestrian center — the established gateway community just over the Hilton Head bridge.
Moss Creek sits on the Bluffton mainland directly across the bridge from Hilton Head Island, on roughly one thousand acres bordered by the Intracoastal Waterway and the Mackay Creek marshes. Established in 1974, it was the first major gated community developed off the island — and remains one of the most established residential addresses in the broader Bluffton area.
The community is defined by its waterfront orientation and its golf. Two Tom Fazio-designed eighteen-hole courses — the Devil's Elbow North and Devil's Elbow South — wind through tidal marsh and mature pine forest. The Intracoastal Waterway forms the community's southeastern boundary, with marsh-front estates commanding broad views back across the marsh toward Hilton Head Island.
Beyond golf, Moss Creek operates a marina, an equestrian center, tennis and pickleball facilities, and one of the most active community-programming calendars in the Lowcountry.
Two Tom Fazio-designed eighteen-hole courses routed through marsh and forest — both consistently ranked among the top member-owned courses in the Lowcountry.
A working community marina on Mackay Creek with slips, kayak launches, and direct access to the Intracoastal Waterway.
A member-owned equestrian facility with boarding, riding rings, and access to community-owned trails — a rarity within a Lowcountry gated community.
A large community park with walking trails, picnic areas, and access to the marsh-front nature programming run by the Moss Creek Owners' Association.
The community's eastern edge fronts the Intracoastal and the Mackay Creek marsh, with some of the broadest sunrise and marsh views in the area.
Moss Creek is recognized for one of the most active resident-driven calendars in the area — book clubs, garden clubs, fitness programs, social events, and a substantial volunteer culture.
Moss Creek's golf program centers on two distinct Tom Fazio designs, completed in 1974 and 1976, both routed through the community's marsh and pine landscape.
Devil's Elbow NorthThe first of the two — a more traditional Fazio routing with broad strategic fairways and several memorable marsh-side holes.
Devil's Elbow SouthThe second — slightly more demanding from the tips, with tighter doglegs and more frequent water carries through the lowland.
Member-OwnedBoth courses are owned by Moss Creek residents through the Moss Creek Owners' Association — meaning reinvestment flows directly back into the community.
Moss Creek offers the following property types:
Moss Creek offers some of the most accessible pricing for amenity-rich, gated, golf-and-water living in the immediate Hilton Head area — with marsh-front estates representing the upper end and interior single-family residences forming the broader inventory base. The community's mature programming and member-owned amenity structure make it a particularly compelling fit for full-time residents.
