Okatie is a serene and beautiful unincorporated area that spans across Beaufort and Jasper counties, serving as a peaceful bridge between Bluffton and Beaufort. It is named after the Okatie River, and the area is defined by its lush landscapes and deep-water creeks. Okatie is home to the Oldfield Club, a historic plantation-style community that offers a glimpse into the region's agrarian past. Residents here enjoy a slower pace of life while being just minutes away from the shopping and dining hubs of the neighboring towns. It is the perfect location for those who want the true Lowcountry experience—plenty of space, ancient oaks, and access to the water.
