Canoe Club, Palmetto Bluff, is the dinner restaurant at the Boat House on the May River, at 41 Boat House Street. It is one of the venues of the Palmetto Bluff Club, the community's member club, and the community lists it among its members' restaurants rather than its public ones. That makes it different from Buffalo's and RT's Market, which anyone can visit.

Who Can Eat at Canoe Club

Members and their guests are the core of the dining room. Visitors who are not members should call the restaurant before planning around it and ask whether it can seat them; one listing says the club takes guest reservations when it has room, but the club does not publish that policy on the pages we could read. If you are staying in the community, the concierge at the Montage is the better first call. For dinner with no membership question, see the Buffalo’s and River House pages.

Hours, Phone and Getting There

It serves dinner only, from 5:30 to 9 p.m. Wednesday through Saturday, with the restaurant closed Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. The phone number is (843) 706-5460. Palmetto Bluff is a gated community, so tell the guard at the main gate which restaurant you are going to. The Boat House sits on the May River side of the community, where the canoes and kayaks are kept, so leave time for the drive in from the gate.

Every Palmetto Bluff restaurant, sorted by who can visit, is on the Palmetto Bluff restaurants page, and the community itself is covered in the Palmetto Bluff guide.

What reviewers say

Diners praise a creative, seasonal menu built on local seafood: roasted oysters, black grouper, crab beignets and a paella one calls the best they have had. Service is described as excellent, with servers and the wine staff named by returning guests. The room, with a ceiling shaped like an upturned boat, is part of the draw. One diner found a few plates more clever than tasty and the dessert list short.
