Orchid Island Golf & Beach Club

Established in 1989, Orchid Island is a private, luxury golf and beach club community offering a varied selection of single-family residences, courtyard homes, condominiums and homesites. Membership is offered with approval by the membership committee, and housing is limited to 400 families.

Amenities are headed by the 25,000-square-foot Beach Club on the Atlantic Ocean which offers ocean views and understated elegance. The second level includes an intimate bar and a lovely dining room both of which open to covered terraces and ocean views.

Casual dining is offered at the Grill around the heated pool, or under a covered loggia. The Beach Club also includes men's and women's locker rooms, poolside cabanas, and a private beach walk.

The 17,000-square-foot golf clubhouse offers informal dining in a grille atmosphere, lounge/bar, veranda dining for lunch and dinner, a golf shop, and both men and women locker facilities.

An 18-hole, championship layout designed by Arnold Palmer features a large practice area that can simulate all aspects of play. The course is surrounded by a natural blend of historic oaks with lush tropical landscaping integrated with numerous lakes and man-made bodies of water.

The course measures over 7,000 yards from the championship tees. Multiple tee locations provide fun for all types of golfers, and with only 325 Golf Memberships at the Club, there is plenty of opportunity to play the course.

All members enjoy the 11,000 square foot Tennis & Fitness Center with its exercise facility offering the latest equipment, plus trainers skilled in all aspects of fitness and massage therapy.

The tennis facility includes eight Har-Tru Courts and a staff of teaching professionals to handle all levels of play. They also arrange daily scheduling of members matches and inter club events and have continuing individual and group lessons and training sessions.
