We are empty nesters in our late-50s who like golf and tennis and just about everything associated with Moss Creek and Hilton Head. We moved frequently in our professional life but have started to settle down. We have two boys, both graduates of Auburn University and mechanical/civil engineers. We try to get to Moss Creek as often as possible.

As we are starting to get long in tooth but not quite old enough to retire, we started looking for places where we might want to settle down and Hilton Head was towards the top of the list. Moss Creek offers several activities of personal interest including golf, tennis and boating. We refer to this place as our 'Retirement Starter House' as it gives us an opportunity to figure out what we really want in retirement. Moss Creek offers all the traditional leisure activities in a splendid environmental setting. We don't think it gets much better than the Hilton Head Island. With the relaxed atmosphere of the Low Country, the pleasant climate and the scenery of the moss draped oaks, palms, pine, marshland and waterways, you definitely feel that you on vacation, that you 'away' from it all.

In addition to all the Moss Creek amenities and access to Hilton Head activities, there are some additional unique benefits of our particular location. First, the cottage is a private, separate house and not part of some condo development. Combined with being on a small island of 13 cottages, it is very private location. It is centrally located to all Moss Creek facilities; an easy walk or bike ride. Second, it is easy to get to places within Hilton Head from Moss Creek. You can easily escape the traffic and delays that sometimes beleaguer Hilton Head. Third, and the wife added this one, it is close to the outlet stores. Actually, it is a little too close for my liking but it is almost literally across the street. Again, a good way to beat the traffic.
