Our Owners Are Our Foundation!


  • "We found our Nirvana" - Leon & Maryann (NH)
"After searching for a place to relocate to in the Carolinas, we found our "Nirvana" at Hilton Head Lakes! The location is just perfect for us......on the golf course, close to HH Island, close to Savannah, Beaufort and Charleston......what more could we ask for !!!! Mark, our salesman, was the best......he is a wealth of information and not a high pressure salesman. The quality of the homes on site is exceptional and we love the layout of both the golf and lake communities. We look forward to starting our new home at HHL as soon as possible!"
  • "Extremely Peaceful, Beautiful - Wonderful People to work with!" - Kathy & Mike (IL)
"Felt at home the first time we visited. Just kept coming back. We looked all over Hilton Head Island & at many communities in Bluffton & the island & decided on Hilton Head Lakes. It is so peaceful yet close to everything. The sales staff, especially Chris & Matt are wonderful! The entire staff is friendly, helpful & never pushy. We always feel welcome when we are there. We are in the process of building & very excited to make HHL our permanent home."

  • "We respect and appreciate the committed ownership who have infused excellent resources to our community. " - Andrea & Mike (SC)
"Hilton Head Lakes is a wonderful community that has protected areas that allow residents to enjoy the natural beauty of the lowcountry, wide selection of water, golf and wooded home sites, and attractive amenities. We love the low amenity fee- that includes our irrigation water- and the high quality variety of home builders. We also like the proximity to the University, Hilton Head Island, Savannah, Beaufort, and Charleston. There is never a shortage of activities to enjoy!"

  • "LAKESIDE HAVEN" - Sue & Bob (SC)
"LIVING HERE IS EVERY THING WE HOPED IT WOULD BE AND MORE!"

  • "Hilton Head Lakes- Our New Home Community" - Gene & Marti (NC)
"We came to the area to initially visit Del Webb Sun City. We found Sun City to be too large, houses too close, monthly and golf fees too high. We looked around the area at other possiblities and fortunately found Hilton Head Lakes. HHL is the best value we've found in the area for both lake and golf homesites. The HHL team that we've met are all top-notch professionals- Nate, Matt, Joe and the rest of the staff are really fine people. This will be our 12th primary residence and our best. The value, the golf course, the lakes, the walking trails, the amenities under construction and planned are fantastic. The Low Country living at HHL is terrific with the privacy yet access to Bluffton, Hilton Head, Savannah. We have found some of the best restaurants nearby for Seafood, Chinese, Mexican, Pub- all at reasonable prices. We have our current home on the market and will begin building our new home, the Calibogie soon. We look forward to meeting our new neighbors and taking advantage of all HHL has to offer."

  • The land we purchased at Hilton Head Lakes has to be the most rewarding and cost effective purchase for our retirement - Frank & Charlotte (VA)
"The location is not only breathtaking but overlooks a lake and sets on a golf course making it one of the most beautiful areas in South Carolina.  Mac Rogerson not only made us feel comfortable but dedicated his time to ensure our buying experience was exciting.  He even gave us information about the area which reassured us we made a great choice.  We feel we not only bought a lot to build our dream home but we made lasting friends.  We find ourselves driving to Hilton Head more than usual just to enjoy the area and share stories about our kids and life.  We look forward to many happy years in the area. THANKS MAC ROGERSON and HILTON HEAD LAKES FOR WELCOMING US TO THE FAMILY."

Hilton Head Lakes promises to be first-class living By Carol Weir of the Island Packet...

Hilton Head Lakes promises to be first-class living By Carol Weir of the Island Packet...

If the owners of Hilton Head Lakes ever design a flag for their new development in Hardeeville, it should include a pontoon boat.

Families boating on the system of lakes in the 4,700-acre development are part of Hilton Head Lakes' marketing materials and neighborhood design concept; residents will be able to arrive by water at their neighbors' homes, future commercial area and amenities center. 

This week's groundbreaking ceremony for the Lake Club laid to rest any doubt the developers will carry out their promises to build a first-class community, said Matt Peebles of Hilton Head Lakes."In the current economy, most developers are just holding on and not really doing anything," Peebles said. "We made the decision this year to get after it." The lake club will include a fitness center, banquet rooms and catering kitchen. Outside, a beach, infinity-edge pool, boat docks and a boat ramp will be built. The community's lakes range from 8 to 15 feet deep and will be stocked with bream and bass. The amenities center will open in July, Peebles said. "Next year we'll build a resort-style swimming pool with a lazy river," he said. Developers from North Carolina and Stratford Land of Dallas own Hilton Head Lakes in a joint venture. 



Their real-estate portfolio includes communities such as Wild Wing Plantation, Plantation Lakes and Cypress River Plantation in Myrtle Beach and Governors Club in Chapel Hill, N.C. At the end of last year, the group also bought the 1,900 acre, bank-owned Tradition community on the north side of U.S. 278; it's now called Hilton Head Lakes North. Residents of both areas of Hilton Head Lakes will have access to the Tommy Fazio championship golf course on the north side and the Lake Club on the south side. The golf course is open to the public and is doing well, Peebles said."Eventually, we'll build some type of club house there," he said.





The private investor group is led by managing members Joe Brinn, Ralph Teal, Gary Ingersoll and Gilford Edwards, working in conjunction with Stratford Land. Peebles said prospective buyers are reassured that Hilton Head Lakes doesn't have bank debt. 

On the community's north side, furnishings are being moved into a five-home model park built by the developers' construction company, Citizens Homes. The model homes are 1,400 to 3,000 square feet, and all homes in the community have natural gas. Custom homes also are being built, mostly on the south side. Several spec houses will be built in addition to the model homes, Peebles said. At work in the community are Reardon Custom Homes, Sea Castle Construction, H2 Builders and others. Peebles said buyers can choose to put a custom or Citizens' home "on any lot they wish, which is different than in most communities. The buyer can bring in any builder they want."Peebles said the developers are known for building communities that are sustainable without requiring high dues from owners. 

They have pledged that property owners association dues at Hilton Head Lakes will never be higher than $130 a month.Home prices on the north side will range from $170,000 to $300,000, including the lot, and on the south side from $300,000, he said. For now, only the south side is boatable, but Peebles said lakes might be added on the north side in the future. The entrance to the north side of the community is being rebuilt to add waterfalls similar to those on the south side of Hilton Head Lakes. Lots start at less than $40,000. Peebles said the developers' in-house finance company provides most of the loans for lot purchases. Also, the developers are partnering with the city of Hardeeville to continue the Saturday farmer's market in the former Tradition sales center. The farmer's market will reopen in the spring, Peebles said.
