Shipyard Plantation Vacation Rentals

Vacationing in this picturesque plantation is the answer for those desiring to find a retreat, to return to a slower pace in a beautiful setting of oaks, swaying palms and seasonal flowering vegetation. Driving into the Shipyard Plantation and past the guard gate, look to the right for immediate views of tranquil lagoons, fairways and quite possibly a few dozing alligators. This smaller plantation has a distinct quaint feeling to it, as you drive down its winding roads past the clubhouse offering three golf courses and gaze upon its lagoons, shaded bike paths and resorts, which seem to blend in with their natural surroundings. Many varieties of semi tropical birds may be seen, including the great Blue Heron stalking the shoreline of the numerous lagoons.

The natural beauty of this plantation is best taken in via its bike paths. Of course, the most spectacular part of Hilton Head Island is its beach, which is accessed via the Shipyard Beach Club. The white sandy beach extends miles in either direction. The Shipyard Plantation is quite literally in the middle of Hilton Head Island and, as such, is conveniently located within minutes to all of the many shops, its 200 plus restaurants and
its numerous vacation activities.

In addition to golf, the sporting enthusiast has an option of tennis. Many of the resorts have free tennis courts available. Additionally, the world famous Van Der Meer Racquet Club is located in this beautiful plantation. So, if your game is tennis, Shipyard has you covered. Also here is the Crown Plaza hotel, so if dining out is on the vacation agenda; you may want to check it out.
