MGD Guide: Palmetto Bluff

Travel
December 10, 2020

There’s no place that quite epitomizes southern charm like the Palmetto Bluff region in South Carolina. Its historic roots, endless character, and beautiful design and architecture make it the perfect vacay spot to completely recharge and refresh. Mindy recently visited this area for her honeymoon, and couldn’t wait to share her recs with all of you below. xx Enjoy!

Montage Palmetto Bluff

This 22,000 acre sprawling resort is home to various residences, eateries, and recreational activities. It’s a one-stop-shop when it comes to a vacay, and not to mention — the whole area is super kid friendly with endless activities for those of all ages.


Where to Stay
Montage Cottages / Link

These historic, on-property cottages are the perfect place to kick back for a few days. Most of them have enclosed porches and all of the classic amenities you could want in a space, including the perfect spot for afternoon porchin’.

Montage Residences / Link

If you’re looking to house a big group, you can rent their on-site residences for a place to call home.

Palmetto Bluff Rental / Link

This beach rental sits next to the resort and comes with a golf cart and bikes to explore the nearby towns.

This beauty of a space is not only the embodiment of the southern spirit, but it has enough room for the full fam!

Where to Eat
Buffalo’s / Link

This Italian inspired casual restaurant is the perfect spot to grab lunch or dinner. We rode bikes here everyday for a yummy bite to eat.

Cole’s / Link

The best spot for dinner. Who wouldn’t want to dine in such a pretty place!? Don’t miss the bowling alley located next door!

Melt / Link

The cutest little ice cream shop we ever did see for a daily after dinner treat.

What to Do
The Spa / Link

If you’re looking for a day at the spa, you’ll find refuge here. Set beside waterways and oak trees, you’ll never want to leave. We tried the Hydrafacial and His & Hers massages.

Roam the Montage grounds

The property is home to an amazing amount of paths to bike on and explore. As a guest, everyone gets around via bike, so it feels like you’re on vacation every moment of your stay. Grab a bike a wander away!

Paddle board / Link

If you’re anything like us, you love an early morning paddle board sesh, and you can rent boards on the property to do just that!

Bluffton

Known as being the heart of the Lowcountry, Bluffton is the town that sits next to Palmetto Bluff. It’s a great spot to drive into for a bite to eat and local shopping!


Where to Eat & Shop
Farm / Link

This restaurant has rustic-chic interiors and is a great spot to go to for a late brunch or date night. We went for Sunday brunch, and had the best meal!

The Pearl Bluffton / Link

Home to Southern coastal cuisine, this restaurant has a great patio and wine list.

Leah Bailey Interiors / Link

This shop owned by designer Leah Bailey speaks all sorts of southern charm — stop by here to get some pretties!

Day Trips to Take

Because Palmetto Bluff is centrally located within South Carolina, it’s a great spot to take a few day trips from during your stay!


Savannah / Link

This idyllic town is only a thirty-minute drive away, so is absolutely worth traversing out to for a day.

Hilton Head / Link

This world-renowned island is home to all of the best outdoor activities, and is also a thirty-minute drive from the resort.

Charleston / Link

If you’re looking for a full day adventure, make the two-hour drive up to Charleston. It’s our favorite day (or weekend) trip. We drove up for the day, and were so happy we did!
