Silk Hope Harbour

Overlooking The Ford Plantation's Marina, a row of clapboard cottages with two-story porches are envisioned, typifying the community's unpretentious charm. Here a coastal village is proposed, modeled after those that were the centers of small-town life on the eastern seaboard.

The deepwater Marina was once the yacht basin for Henry Ford's beloved cruiser, Little Lulu, and is now able to accommodate vessels of up to 65 feet in length.

Some homesites look out at the back nine of the Pete Dye-designed golf course, while most have wonderful views of Lake Clara or the Ogeechee River, making Silk Hope harbour the neighborhood of choice for those who love life near the water.
