Hampton Island Preserve in Coastal Georgia
May 16, 2008
Hampton Island Preserve (about a half-hour south of Savannah) is actually a series of islands linked together to form the community.
Just 300 homesites ranging from an acre to entire farms, you can choose from Lakefront, Marsh, Equestrian, Deepwater, Golf Course and wooded views. These homesites go for $650,000 to over $4 million.
Amenities include golf (Ricefield’s designed by Davis Love III), equestrian, spas, boating and fishing, a 16-acre organic farm, and more.
Looks and sounds like a really nice community, but there seems to be a battle brewing about the amount of development going on in Hampton Island. Visit http://www.hamptonislandfounders.com/ to read more on that.
Currahee Club in the North Georgia Mountains
May 4, 2008

If you’re considering the North Georgia Mountains for a retirement or 2nd home, be sure to check out Currahee Club at Lake Hartwell.
It’s a 1,200 acre private gated community located only 90 minutes from Atlanta and just an hour from Greenville South Carolina.
The golf course here was designed by Jim Fazio and was voted by Golfweek magazine as one of the top 50 residential golf courses in the nation. Other proposed amenities include a 48,000 square foot clubhouse, a tennis center, a fitness/swim center, and a marina.
From their website it looks like lots start in the high 100k’s, and the least expensive home I could find for sale was just under $700,000.
Currahee Club is located in Toccoa, Georgia.
