Spring 2019 Spinnaker Owner Update

Hilton Head News

Hello Spring!

With the weather much of the country was experiencing the last few months, it may have felt like winter would last forever, but spring has awakened! With a blast of sunshine and a breath of fresh air, nature seems to be saying that it is time to live, time to breathe, and time to enjoy all that life has to offer.

As Owners return to the island and their home away from home, there is much to be enjoyed with all the many improvements that we've made during the fall and winter months. From new roofs at The Cottages, Egret Point and Southwind; to the completion of building refurbishments and renovations at Carolina Club; fresh paint at Waterside and other resorts; and new sofas at Bluewater - one doesn't need to look far.

So, get excited! Make your reservations and get ready to enjoy yourselves, unwind, relax, and recharge!

From the Spinnaker Family to Your Family, here's wishing you a happy spring and all the joy it has to offer.
