Dan Maples built Man O' War around the water, and homes here look out over it. The guide covers price ranges, HOA dues, what a lake or fairway lot actually costs over an interior one, and what's on the market this month.

The card

The course you'd be living on

Most golf-community pages sell you a lifestyle. This one starts with the card, because the course is the thing you're buying next to, and it plays very differently depending on where you tee it up.

What makes it worth living on. Dan Maples routed the course around a lake, and water is in play on essentially every hole. Man O' War is believed to be the only course in the world with back-to-back island greens — the 14th and 15th — plus a par-4 ninth that sits on its own island. The greens are Crenshaw bentgrass and among the largest in South Carolina, averaging roughly 10,000 square feet, over 419 Bermuda fairways. The clubhouse sits on pilings out over the water. Ladies tees are rated 71.2 / 114.

The setting

What it's actually like to live here

The lot

Where the house sits changes everything

Water is the organizing feature of this course, so it's also the organizing feature of the real estate. A home looking down a fairway, a home on the lake, and a home on an interior street are three different purchases at three different numbers, even on the same block.

  • Lake and fairway views carry the clearest premium
  • Newer single-family and villa product across the area
  • Water-adjacent lots are worth checking for flood zone before you offer
  • Netting and ball-strike exposure varies hole to hole — worth walking

Waterford Plantation

The community that fronts the course

Most of the homes on Man O' War sit in Waterford Plantation, off Carolina Forest Boulevard. It's roughly 200 acres and 350-plus custom homes on quarter- to half-acre lots, built largely from the early 2000s on, with a good number backing straight onto the fairways. Residents cart over to the course.

  • Custom homes, commonly 3–5 bedrooms and 1,800–3,500 sq ft
  • Pool, fitness center, tennis, pickleball, playground, walking trails
  • Carolina Forest schools; Highway 501 and 31 both close
  • Roughly 15–20 minutes to the oceanfront

Who you'd be working with

The Coastal Life Team

The Coastal Life Team represents buyers and sellers across the Grand Strand, from the golf corridors west of the Intracoastal Waterway to the beaches of Myrtle Beach. Our specialty is the communities built around this market's courses — Man O' War and Waterford Plantation, Wild Wing, Pine Lakes, and the newer neighborhoods of Carolina Forest.

Golf-course property rewards precision. Position along the fairway, orientation to the water, elevation, mature landscaping, distance from active play — each one shapes what a home is worth, and almost none of it is apparent in a listing photograph. We know these neighborhoods on the ground. When you have a particular home in mind, we'll walk it with you and tell you exactly what you're looking at.

Backed by the resources of Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage and its offices throughout the Carolinas, we pair the reach of a major brokerage with a market we know street by street. Every inquiry is answered personally by a member of the team.
