Considering a Home in Island Club at Retreat?

Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Island Club at Retreat and the surrounding Sea Island golf market.

Connect With a Local Real Estate Specialist

Island Club at Retreat is the residential neighborhood most directly built around a Sea Island Golf Club course -- it surrounds the Retreat course at the south end of St. Simons Island. Unlike Cloister Ocean Residences, golf/club membership here is not bundled with the home purchase; it runs through the same application-based Sea Island Club process available to any qualifying Sea Island real estate.

Golf Access

Does buying a home here include club membership?

Buying a home here does not automatically guarantee golf membership unless stated below — confirm access directly with each club.

Golf/club membership is available separately, via application to the Sea Island Club (same structure as elsewhere -- see The Cloister at Sea Island anchor record), not included with HOA dues or automatic upon closing.

Location & Surrounding Area

South end of St. Simons Island, off Retreat Avenue near the Frederica Road/Kings Way roundabout -- physically on St. Simons Island despite its association with Sea Island's golf club brand.

Costs & Fees

Figures below are labeled Current only when the source itself frames them as presently accurate. Everything else is labeled Historical — a source checked today does not make an old figure a current one.

HOA / association fee

Current

$925

Approximate midpoint of a reported $750-$1,100/year range found across recent listing records; not a single official published rate. Confirm current figure with the community association.

Sea Island Club golf/social membership is explicitly separate from Island Club at Retreat HOA dues -- residents are not required to join the golf club, and membership (where desired) requires the same application/approval process as elsewhere on Sea Island, not automatic inclusion.
