St James Plantation Can Be The Perfect Place To Retire

By Karen Allen


Some people can't wait until they are old enough to retire. They have plans to move to an area of the country they have visited and fallen in love with. These are places where seniors can enjoy the things that interest them in a climate that suits their tastes. For many, that is a place where they can enjoy an active outdoor lifestyle in a beautiful environment. St James Plantation in Southport, North Carolina is just such a place.

For seniors with an active lifestyle, who are always on the go and love having plenty of things to do, this coastal community is an ideal retirement opportunity. You won't see harsh winters or oppressive summers here. You will still be able to enjoy the changing seasons however, without giving up your outdoor activities.

This is a small community, and everyone knows their neighbors. You can feel safe and comfortable strolling down the street lined with massive live oaks shading antebellum homes that will remind you of a time gone by. There are plenty of specialty shops downtown to browse. You are on the coast, so enjoying the freshest seafood will never be a problem.

On any given day, you might choose to play different championship courses designed by golf legends Nicklaus, Irwin, Dye, and Cate. If you aren't in the mood for a full round, you can try the driving ranges, practice greens, or sign up for one of the frequent clinics offered by the club. All you need is one membership to give you access to all four courses.

If you are a boater, you will love the fact that the St. James Marina can offer you the safety of the Intracoastal when the ocean gets rough. The rest of the time, you can enjoy the Atlantic, just five minutes away. The marina is full service with dry stack storage that will accommodate three hundred plus boats and more than one hundred fifty wet slips. The marina restaurant is famous for its crab cakes, alfresco dining, and live music.

If hiking and biking are what you enjoy, there are any number of trails you can walk and ride, both inland and on the Intracoastal. There are nests of Great Blue Herons in the marshes for you to watch, and the famous Venus Flytraps that grow wild here are something residents love to point out to newcomers.

There is plenty for fitness buffs to do here. You can join one of a number of exercise classes, bake in the saunas, swim outside or indoors in one of several pools, or take up weight training. With one membership you will have access to all four clubhouses and all their amenities.

St. James is a thriving community rich in natural beauty, history, and charm. Water lovers, art lovers, sportsmen, gourmets, and shopping enthusiasts can all satisfy their hobbies in style here. It truly is a wonderful place to call home.
