The Bays is the only neighborhood in Prince Creek with private, direct access to both TPC Boulevard and Prince Creek Parkway, providing residents with a scenic, low-traffic route to the Prince Creek shopping district, the famous MarshWalk, and the South End beaches, without the hassle of navigating major highways. Comprising eight thoughtfully designed neighborhoods, The Bays offers a diverse selection of homes, from low-maintenance townhomes and Charleston-style cottages with included landscaping to spacious single-family residences. Resort-inspired amenities include sidewalks throughout the community, a beautifully appointed clubhouse, two sparkling pools, tennis and pickleball courts, volleyball and basketball courts, an outdoor event gazebo, and a sprawling activity field complete with a soccer goal and baseball backstop.
