Thinking About Living in Daniel Island Club?
Get connected with a local real-estate specialist who understands Daniel Island Club and the surrounding Charleston Metro golf market.
The Daniel Island Club anchors Daniel Island Park, the specific gated-feel sub-neighborhood of the broader Daniel Island community in Charleston (Berkeley County). The Club operates two 18-hole courses -- Beresford Creek (Tom Fazio, 2000) and Ralston Creek (Rees Jones, 2006) -- and is structured so that owning property in Daniel Island Park comes with a minimum Social Membership automatically, with a separate, permanent, and transferable Golf Membership available exclusively to those same property owners.
Golf & Course
Beresford Creek is a Tom Fazio design (2000), par 72, playing 7,195 yards from the championship tees. Ralston Creek is a Rees Jones design (2006), par 72, playing 7,446 yards from the championship tees. Together the two courses give Daniel Island genuine dual-architect pedigree among this market's anchors.
Membership & Access
Does buying a home here include club membership?
Property owners within Daniel Island Park automatically receive a Social Membership (the minimum required tier for property owners there). A separate Daniel Island Golf Membership is available only to Daniel Island Park property owners, is permanent (not recallable if the club caps membership), and is transferable to a subsequent buyer if the prior owner held it. Two non-property-linked paths also exist: an Invitational Membership (sponsor required, reported ~$70,000 initiation) and a National Membership (for those whose permanent residence is 75+ miles away, reported ~$30,000 initiation). The club does not publish pricing online.
Living in Daniel Island Club
Daniel Island Park is the specific, defined neighborhood carrying Club-membership eligibility -- distinct from the broader Daniel Island community/town, which includes substantial residential development with no golf-membership linkage at all. Buyers should not assume every Daniel Island address confers Club access.
Lifestyle & Amenities
Reported amenities include tennis, a pool, and dining in addition to the two golf courses.
Location & Surrounding Area
Daniel Island sits within the City of Charleston, largely in Berkeley County (annexed into the city in the 1990s), between the Wando and Cooper Rivers, roughly 20 minutes from downtown Charleston.

What Buyers Should Verify
- Confirm current initiation fees and dues for every tier directly with the Club's membership office -- third-party sources gave conflicting figures and the Club does not publish pricing online.
- Confirm the Berkeley County vs. Charleston County boundary as it applies specifically to Daniel Island Park -- this session's search budget was exhausted before independently reconfirming county placement.
- Confirm gated/access-control status of Daniel Island Park specifically.
Notable
- Two 18-hole courses under one club: Beresford Creek (Tom Fazio, 2000) and Ralston Creek (Rees Jones, 2006).
- The Daniel Island Golf Membership is permanent and transferable to a subsequent buyer of a Daniel Island Park property.
- Membership eligibility is scoped specifically to Daniel Island Park, not the whole of Daniel Island.
