Wild Dunes Community Association Inc.

The Wild Dunes Community Association Inc. is a nonprofit social welfare organization located in Isle of Palms, South Carolina. It is a key entity in managing the Wild Dunes community, a beachfront residential area on the Isle of Palms.

Purpose and Functions

The primary mission of the Wild Dunes Community Association is to promote the common good and general welfare of its residents. It achieves this by maintaining common properties, ensuring architectural integrity, providing services to property owners, fostering community pride, and protecting property values[1][2]. All property owners within Wild Dunes are automatically members of the Association[2].

History

The development of the Wild Dunes area began in 1972, and over the years, it has evolved through various ownership changes. The Wild Dunes Community Association was initially established as the Isle of Palms Beach and Racquet Club Association in 1977. By 1988, the governance shifted to the community members, marking a significant milestone in its management structure[2].

Community Structure

Wild Dunes is a private gated community with a total of 2,135 properties. Besides the main Community Association, there are also 28 regime associations responsible for maintaining neighborhood-specific common properties, representing over 1,400 properties[2].

Community Amenities and Features

Wild Dunes is renowned for its beautiful beaches, golf courses, and other recreational amenities. While property ownership in Wild Dunes includes membership in the Community Association, access to certain amenities like golf, tennis, or Resort-owned pools requires separate membership or arrangements[2]. The community is surrounded by the Intracoastal Waterway and offers panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, making it a desirable residential location[3].
