*Ash Room

The Strachan Mansion at Haig Point was built in 1910 on St. Simons Island as a summer retreat. In 1986, the new developers of the community moved the mansion to Haig Point with two barges over three days in some times treacherous waters. The historic building was restored to its magnificence as you see today.

Featuring four luxurious suites, each with a tie to Haig Point's history and beautifully themed with antique furnishings, the Mansion presents comfortably elegant accommodations for guests of residents and members. Guests can unwind from their busy day with a refreshing beverage at the bar, playing billiards with friends or simply relaxing in one of the cozy gathering places.

The General Store is located in the Mansion, stocked with necessities to tide you over between trips to the mainland. In the mornings, the Mansion offers complimentary coffee, muffins and daily newspapers. The Member hub also houses our on-site post office, and it’s a Wi-Fi hot spot for those wanting a peaceful place to catch up on work while watching dolphins frolic in the surf.

  We enjoy the hotel room at the mansion. It was great to have a Starbucks downstairs and friendly staff. Only small issue is the hair dryer only blows cold air and needs to be replaced.

  Clean room, well appointed. Has the nicest shower of the 4 mansion rooms available. Windows don't open (painted closed for years) but this room and the Mongin room have access to a shared balcony so fresh air and a view of the cooper river / marshland...and sunset.

  We stayed in the Ash Room at the Mansion. It is beautifully decorated with beautiful views of the water, live oak trees, and tabby ruins. Every service we received was excellent - from the ferry, mansion, cart, to restaurants.
  
  I would like to especially recognize Mr. Jim Hays, the reservations manager. We had to modify our booking, and he was very diligent in getting it straighten out for us.
  
  Since we stayed in Haig Point, it was convenient, and a joy dine in the plantation. And since restaurants outside the plantation are not as good or nearby, I don't think it's necessary for Haig Point to add the additional 20% service charge for meals.

  Our 7th stay on Daufuskie, 3rd at The Mansion while our home is being built. Monday's are tough on DI because the golf course and dining options are both closed. Outside the gate, most places are closed Mondays too. However, found the The Sportsman (at Melrose) which was a great place for lunch. Ali at The Mansion Starbucks is just a bright and shining personality. Josh at the Beach Club Bar is always welcoming. Love DI and can't wait for our next trip.

  We stayed in the Mansion and had a wonderful room over looking the water and seeing the sun rise. Ferry, baggage handling delivered to your room and golf carts were all very efficient. The whole island of Daufuski is extremely relaxing and the wildlife is amazing.
  
  Since this was our first visit to the island, we figured out there is no front desk for checkin. The woman at the Starbucks cafe/bar in the mansion graciously gives you your room key and also checks you out. When going to the island you receive a small business card with a 5 number code. Keep this close as this number is used to open the gates out of the member area (if you go to Freeport as an example), and gets you back in. It is also used to get on the Ferry to the island and you punch in the code to leave on the Ferry.
  
  Also, make sure you get a detailed map for golfcarting around to see all the history. The one in the brochure in your room is a highlight and there are many more small roads to know about.
  
  You will not regret your visit!

  Outstanding!! Starting with emailing Jim and Courtney about this visit was professional and courteous.
  
  From there, Courtney is an absolute Super Star in service, information, logistics, and reservations, and just a super helpful resource for our entire trip. The golf course was amazing and challenging but that's what I expected. Your members and staff were so welcoming to Jennifer and me and I can't thank you enough fo this experience. I will be thinking about that wine dinner for decades and I'm already rethinking how I make pasta after the wonderful Italian night on Tuesday.
  
  I've already mentioned her, but Courtney is incredible. She made our visit just a "lot" more enjoyable in every aspect. Thanks so much HP!

  Our weekend stay in the Ash room was delightful. Upon our arrival, our luggage was brought directly to our room. The room is large and has access to a shared balcony overlooking the sound. The pull-out couch worked great for our two young children to share. The beds were very comfortable and the bathroom was spacious. There were just a few cons for this room that I think could be easily improved upon by rental management: 1. Ensure coffee pods and cups are in the room for guests, and 2. Provide linens for the pull-out couch. We otherwise had a fantastic stay and I would recommend the Ash room, especially for short-term stays for individuals, couples, or families with young children/toddlers.

  From the moment we booked our room, we were thrilled with the care and attention we received from the booking service at Haig Point. They did everything they could to ensure our happiness with transport, golf cart rental and our rooms were beautiful. However, we asked in advance and on the day that the pull out bed be made up for the children in one of the rooms and were assured it would be set up perfectly for our return in the evening form a day of activities. Unfortunately, on our return the bed was not made up, there were no sheets or blankets and we were informed the hotel staff was gone for the evening. We were forced to share blankets and pillows and borrow sheets from our friend who lives on the island. In the morning, we were told by the hotel manager that it was not her fault but the fault of the cleaners. She completely transferred any ownership of the issue and did nothing to make up for the error. She was not apologetic, but rather laid blame on the cleaning staff for not understanding the instructions leaving us with no recourse to correct the issue. She did not offer a discount or apology. Everything else was fabulous but for the price we paid it was an unacceptable oversight. I recommend Haig Point, loved the rooms and want to go again but not if this woman is running the show.

  A few things made it less than stellar!
  -- No glasses for water in room
  -- Hard to find anyone to ask for directions or other info. If you are an event guest as we were, with no one who was an actual member, you are pretty much on your own to figure out most Haig Point logistics.
  I would not recommend to a friend who was not a club member's relative or friend also.

  We travel and have explored many new places based on our club membership. Haig Point came up on a list when exploring Charleston, SC. We thought, why not? The experience was unforgettable. The personal service, privacy and solitude of Haig Point will need to be experienced by all. We should mention that it is so beautiful. Thank you so much. Looking forward to our return.

  I stayed in the Ash room at the mansion. It was an absolutely beautiful room, the bed was so incredibly comfortable that I woke up in the same spot I fell asleep in. The balcony overlooking the inter coastal waterway was the perfect backdrop to a dreamy weekend for my best friends wedding. The only downside to the room was I wish there was a big bathtub.

  Tom C from Rensselaer, NY recommends this vacation rental

  We've always wanted to experience Daufuskie culture, but were disappointed in that regard, as we were there on a full Monday, and the shops and eateries were closed except for one small general store and bar at Old Daufuskie Crab Company. That was a pleasant place to stop and have a beer and sit by the water. But, don't expect much in terms of food or service. Not much else to see, but tooling around on a golf cart was fun. Haig Point, where we stayed in the Ash Room of the Mansion, was beautiful and the staff couldn't be more accommodating. Gold course was great! Overall, a great overnight stay and a great value.
