Mooring Buoy is a residential street in Palmetto Dunes, Hilton Head, lined mostly with single-family homes, in the north gate area near the tennis center, the golf courses and the General Store. Homes sit a few rows back from the ocean or on the lagoon, and some have private pools and docks.
It is one of the Palmetto Dunes rentals we cover. For the two-bedroom townhomes on the same street, see Ocean Cove.
The Homes
Homes typically run three to six bedrooms on larger lots, and rental listings show heated private pools and multi-level decks. One listing we read is a three-bedroom single-story home set about 100 yards back from the road, on the lagoon with a private dock, across the street from the beach path and about a five-minute walk to the sand. Other homes are third to fifth row.
Renting on Mooring Buoy
These are individually owned homes, so the pool, pets and bedding vary by house. Some allow pets and some do not, so check each listing. Browse more in the Palmetto Dunes home rentals guide.
Booking a Mooring Buoy Home
Units are owned separately and rented by several companies, and the resort’s own rental program has some of them. The resort asks for three to seven or more nights. Palmetto Dunes is gated. Ask whoever you book with how car passes are issued; guests in a resort-managed rental get theirs at check-in.
