Named after a beautiful local shorebird, this charming getaway is an experience-driven, design-led boutique luxury retreat embodying the eternal Southern summer home. Inviting guests to experience the outdoor bliss of coastal living on 2,000 picturesque acres, the nature-embraced Johns Island resort is just 20 miles from Charleston. Designed by Amanda Lindroth, the property offers 72 cottage-style guest rooms and suites. Adventure beckons with 20 miles of riverfront and scenic nature trails and flora- and fauna-rich marshlands, while two Auberge dining concepts and a destination spa celebrate the rich heritage of South Carolina and the simple wonder of life on the river.
