Albemarle Plantation is an established gated residential golf and marina community located on the waterfront of beautiful Albemarle Sound in Hertford, North Carolina.

Albemarle Plantation Info - Bordered by the waters of Albemarle Sound and the mile wide Yeopim River is the world-class,1,200 acre, golf and boating community of Albemarle Plantation. Its location is perfect situated between historic Edenton and Elizabeth City. The pace of life in this pre-Revolutionary area of Eastern North Carolina encourages a laid-back, small town atmosphere, reminiscent of simpler, easier going days past. However, an hour's drive north is Tidewater Virginia with all the advantages provided by a large metropolitan area. Additionally, the area enjoys a temperate, four-season climate and is within a day's drive of any major Northeast city.

Somewhere along the drive, just as you emerge from the rural countryside and ease through the Albemarle Plantation gates, it happens. An automatic shift to a slower pace, a realization of abundant nature, the captivating smell of sea air. With so much to do here, you realize the day is yours and you can fill it however you like. And because living at Albemarle Plantation costs considerably less than at other resort communities, life feels especially good.

The plantation style clubhouse provides quality dining, 25-meter pool, fitness center and lighted tennis courts. Dine at the Clubhouse with its breathtaking views, in the grill or at the pool-side bar, on entrees specially prepared by our chef. Bask by the sunlit pool or take to the Sound to sail, ski or fish to your heart's content, in waters that offer both fresh and saltwater advantages. Bike the trails, walk the landscape, take a class, join club activities, then-at the end of the day, enjoy the cocktail hour overlooking sunset on the Sound, with several of your (now) closest friends. Albemarle Plantation hosts more than 50 different clubs for all different interests. Perhaps this is why we were recently named one of America's 100 best master-planned communities to retire (although our community consists of a wide spectrum of ages). Here you'll find tennis, yachting, bocce, waterfront tai chi, trapshooting, garden clubs, carving and a long list of others. Not to mention all the festivals, tournaments, parties and gatherings throughout the year.

Town Info: Nestled among cypress groves, waterfront coves and historic towns, Albemarle Plantation not only offers a wealth of opportunities to enjoy within the property, but also a long list of activities that can be found outside its community gates. In any of several surrounding towns and areas, you might find yourself meandering through 18th century homes and buildings, touring a National Wildlife Refuge, or experiencing the life of America's first English settlers through a production of The Lost Colony. Shop for crafts imported from around the world, wander Elizabethan Gardens, or take the trip to Cape Hatteras National Seashore, just an hour away, to lose yourself in its 70 miles of shell-strewn beaches. There are festivals, craft shows, and with several colleges in the area, also theater and cultural events, plus numerous opportunities for continuing education.

Marina: Albemarle Sound is the largest freshwater sound in the country-55 miles long and 15 miles at its widest point. Albemarle's marina is one of the largest private marinas between Norfolk, Virginia and Charleston, South Carolina. The 212-slips facility of Yeopim Creek accommodates yachts up to sixty feet in length. We've placed our marina strategically at the mouth of Yeopim Creek and just beyond the high insurance line saving boaters significantly on their insurance rates. This beneficial location lends itself to waters that are both freshwater and salt, offering an abundance of fish and shellfish varieties throughout the year.Types of boating vary-sailing, naturally, is a mainstay, but all kinds of vessels dock here. Our residents find it's a quick trip to the Outer Banks (Kitty Hawk is just 38 nautical miles East) or even to the Gulf Stream for a day of marlin, tuna or dolphin fishing.

Golf: Choose a round of golf on the Dan Maples-designed championship golf course, with its spectacular cypress-lined holes overlooking the Albemarle Sound. When he designed The Sound Golf Links at Albemarle Plantation, Dan Maples applied his renowned passion for environmental sensitivity and extraordinary golf course architecture. The result is an unforgettable experience that ranks as "One of the Best 201 Places to Play" by Golf Digest. Here, many of the holes have panoramic views of Albemarle Sound, and each hole is distinctively different, with its own personality based on the challenges of the lay of the land. The marshlands, the Sound front, the Spanish-moss-lined cypress groves are incorporated to full advantage, offering vistas that vary but remain consistently breathtaking, with the added ambiance of soft breezes to add even further challenge.Lessons and clinics are readily available through our Pro Shop, and you'll find an assortment of tournaments throughout the year. There is also the Men's Golf Association and Ladies' Golf Association which play on alternating days during the week. All players are asked to have an established USGA handicap.
