A Brief History of
Palmetto Bluff
Before being purchased by
Crescent Resources, LLC, a real estate
development company and land-management,
Palmetto Bluff was owned by two aristocratic
families, R. T. Wilson and H. A. Estill, and
then by Union Bag and Paper Company (later to
become Union Camp). When the development company
purchased Palmetto Bluff, their desire was to
tastefully develop the property so it would
commend the surroundings and preserve the nature
of the land. When you visit the Palmetto Bluff

peacefulness of nature, it is very obvious the
company succeeded in their task of preserving
the natural setting of the land.
