Why the Owner Chose Ocean Point
I own this home with my son, a friend and his dad. We love making our place available to families, wedding and other groups to enjoy and for fun. My friend's daughter was married at "Tara", the nickname our house has had since it was built.
The Unique Benefits at this House (Colonial Mansion)
Our house is ideally set up for family and group gatherings. It has the taste of the old colonial South but with all the updates, right on the Ocean Golf Course and the Atlantic Ocean just beyond 3 minutes away. WE ARE AN IDEAL PLACE FOR YOUR DESTINATION WEDDING!!!!!!
From this par 5 you can see down this ponded hole and across the 11th green and number 9 fairway to the ocean.
Great breakfast, lunch and dinners in season here at the grill with the pool next door RIGHT ON THE OCEAN. Also the location of the OPGC Pro Shop.
The most popular place on the island for all day enjoyment on the beach. All the food, relaxation and bathroom facitlites you'll need for the whole family.
Here you can rent bikes, golf carts and kayaks. Or charter a fishing boat and buy bait. Or have dinner at one of the best seafood restaurants in the county,"The Boathouse".
Use any of a dozen public beach access points to swim of fish right off the surf. In SC you don't need a fishing license to fish from shore...only from boats. Great for fun for yourself and or with yo
Owner's Map of Ocean Point
I've spent most of my adult life in Michigan raising three kids and in business. During those years, I was involved in a good many non-profit organizations including being President of a School Board. Those adventures were much more rewarding than the business work. My grown children have made good lives for themselves and as I say to all my friends, I look forward to making the second half of my life all the more interesting. I'm 63, going on 40.
