Just off the resort down by the marina is one of our favourite spots. Morgan Creek Grill offers unparalleled panoramic views of the Intracoastal Waterway and surrounding Lowcountry marshes from the waterfront dining room and upper level bar.
Fresh seafood, choice steaks and creative appetizers are offered with Southern hospitality in the main dining room nightly which features floor to ceiling windows. The Upper Deck at Morgan Creek offers casual open air dining on the rooftop with expansive views of the Marina and waterway and a creative, casual lunch and dinner menu.
Golf
There are two top class golf courses on-site. The more renowned Links course will test you with it’s tiny greens and boasts two finishing holes situated right along the ocean shore but in our view the Harbor Course is the more picturesque with views of the Intracoastal Waterway and coastal salt marshes. Both courses are an absolute joy to play.
