DeBordieu Features and Lifestyle
Santa Visits DeBordieu!
He arrived by fire truck, listened to everyone’s Christmas wishes, and witnessed the lighting of the beautiful tree at DeBordieu’s Pavilion Rec Center, just south of Pawleys Island, South Carolina.
The delicious buffet featured everything from Roast Beast to Shrimp ‘n Grits.
The blazing fire provided warmth and perfectly roasted marshmallows for yummy S ‘mores, enjoyed by children of all ages.

There’s never been a better time to celebrate Christmas at DeBordieu!

Members of DeBordieu Club, just south of Pawleys Island, SC are going to have the opportunity to participate in many festive, holiday events this month, starting this Saturday, December 4, with the Annual Christmas Tree Lighting at the DeBordieu’s Pavilion Rec Center. Always a favorite among DeBordieu Club Members of all ages, this year’s menu includes everything from Beef Tenderloin to S’mores!
DeBordieu Club Members tell me all me all the time how wonderful it is to be part of a community that has regularly scheduled events, as well as special activities.
The Winter Awards Ceremonies are also this weekend…..the Golf Awards Banquet is Friday, December 3, and the Tennis Awards Party and Luncheon is Saturday, December 4.
Monday, December 6th will be a busy day for DeBordieu Club. In addition to the Celebrity Golf Tournament to Benefit Cystic Fibrosis, the DeBordieu Garden Club will meet at the oceanfront Beach Club and create holiday centerpieces. The WSCGA will have Ladies State Day at DeBordieu on Tuesday, December 14.
The monthly Birthday Luncheon is Thursday December 16th at the Beach Club where gifts for “Toys For Tots” will be collected. That evening, it’s Men’s Card Night at the Golf Clubhouse….but I don’t think they’re collecting toys. (Cigars for Tots, maybe? Just kidding.)
There has never been a better time to be a club member at DeBordieu! Happy Holidays!
DeBordieu is “Literally” a Great Place to Live.
There are all sorts of ways to get involved in different activities and get to know your neighbors at DeBordieu, just south of Pawleys Island, South Carolina.
While having lunch last week at the DeBordieu Clubhouse, I ran into my friend Sue Canna and her fellow book club members. They call themselves “The Wild Bores” and meet on the second Thursday of the month in the conference room at the clubhouse. After the meeting, they adjourn to the grill room for lunch.
The members consist of about 20 DeBordieu residents, some of whom have been reading together for about 9 years. The books they read cover a broad spectrum of historical novels, mysteries, anthologies, other cultures, and occasionally a good “chick” book.
“Mostly we are a group who enjoys each others company and a book club is a good excuse to read, have lunch and visit.”
I’m so glad I ran into Sue and her friends. It reminded me that golf, tennis, boating and beach walking aren’t the only things DeBordieu residents enjoy. For more information, feel free to contact me or browse the website at www.DeBordieu.com.
There has never been a better time to consider a purchase at DeBordieu.
DeBordieu Fabulous Feature #4 – Private Golf!
DeBordieu Fabulous Feature #4 – Private Golf!
DeBordieu Club features a fabulous, private, championship 18-Hole golf course designed by Pete and P.B. Dye. Noted as one of Pete and P.B. Dyes favorite designs, the links style course at DeBordieu, just south of Pawleys Island, has been consistently ranked among the top 10 private clubs in South Carolina.
I consider myself to be very fortunate to have been on staff as DeBordieu’s Marketing Manager when the course opened in 1987. (I still remember the Scottish dude with the bagpipes sauntering down number 9 toward the Clubhouse…..what a picture!!!!)
The course features an outstanding mix of Pete Dye’s design qualities to make it challenging, but not too many to make it exceedingly difficult (and no fun) to play. In fact, upon the opening of the golf course, one very witty golf writer referred to it as “Pete Dye without the whips and chains.”
Set in the beauty of the South Carolina Low Country and surrounded by an abundance of natural wildlife, DeBordieu Club offers one of the only private golf courses in the Pawleys Island area.
The highly regarded links course plays to more than 7,000 yards from the championship tees, and offers a set of tees to provide enjoyable golf for players of all abilities. The greens are planted in bent grass, the fairways are Bermuda, and the rough is Paspalum, all providing for an interesting round of golf!
Since its opening, DeBordieu Club has been host to many regional championships including the Carolinas Mid-Amateur, the South Carolina Women’s Amateur and the Carolinas Senior Amateur. This December, DeBordieu Club will host the Inaugural DeBordieu Club Celebrity Pro-Am to benefit the South Carolina Chapter of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation!
Currently, there are a number of homes, villas and homesites available on the DeBordieu Golf Course. Click on each of the pictures to be linked to the corresponding property. For more information about Club Membership at DeBordieu, give me a call.
