Berkeley Hall Homes
Bluffton’s Ultra-Private Golf Sanctuary
Located along the Okatie River in Bluffton, South Carolina, Berkeley Hall is one of the Lowcountry’s most refined and private residential golf communities. Designed around two world-class Tom Fazio golf courses, Berkeley Hall offers architectural elegance, controlled growth, and a club culture centered on golf excellence.
Unlike larger resort-style developments, Berkeley Hall was intentionally designed as a low-density, member-focused environment. It attracts buyers seeking privacy, golf purity, and estate-level living just minutes from Hilton Head Island.

The Golf Experience
Berkeley Hall is one of the few communities in the region built entirely around two “core golf” courses—meaning no homes line the interior holes. This preserves uninterrupted golf views and enhances course integrity.
North Course
A traditional parkland-style layout emphasizing strategy and shot-making precision.
South Course
A more dramatic design incorporating elevation changes and river influences.
Supporting facilities include:
- Expansive practice grounds
- Dual-sided driving range
- Short-game areas
- Professional instruction
For serious golfers, Berkeley Hall offers one of the purest golf experiences in the Southeast.
