About the community
Ideally located within 25 minutes of Hilton Head Island and Savannah, GA, and only 45 minutes from Beaufort, South Carolina, Hampton Lake offers many real estate options—at a broader range of price points.
Hampton Lake was originally conceived as a golf community, but the builder listened closely to what buyers, especially women, told them they wanted. A momentous decision was made, and Hilton Head area’s first private lake community was born. The golf course was shelved and instead, a 227-acre freshwater lake was built. This was the perfect starting point for a family-friendly, casual living, all-ages community.
To the lake the builder added an outstanding selection of amenities in a Lakeside Village, including a resort-style pool with a lazy river, clubhouse with indoor and outdoor gathering places, and lakefront restaurant and poolside bar, Har-Tru clay tennis courts, impressive fitness and spa facilities, a sandy beach, and a boathouse complete with covered boat docks and a tackle shop.
The well-stocked lake is the epicenter of the 900-acre community with 7 miles of navigable waterways, abundant fishing and 15 miles of shoreline. Residents also enjoy an additional 345 surrounding acres of nature preserve, nine miles of nature trails, a lakeside overnight campsite, and a dog park.
Perhaps one of the most important achievements at Hampton Lake, is the creation of a community that embraces the joy and vitality that comes from a close-knit community made up of young families, retirees, grandchildren, and grandparents alike. In short, this is a community for everyone.
Unique Development Vision for this Community
Hampton Lake developers were very concerned with environmental conservation in this community. Bold, inventive, visionary, and at one with nature. That has been the vision for Hampton Lake from day one.
The master plan commits to “sustainable development” by caring for significant water and woodland resources, while building this high-quality community into a Lowcountry paradise for families.
