Executive Summary

The Retreat is positioned within one of the Southeast's premier freshwater recreational markets. Clarks Hill Lake—also known as J. Strom Thurmond Lake—encompasses more than 70,000 acres of water and approximately 1,200 miles of shoreline, supporting boating, fishing, swimming, kayaking and year-round outdoor recreation. This property is adjacent to Soap Creek Marina.
Lincoln County has experienced renewed population growth, increasing approximately 5.5% between the 2020 Census and the Census Bureau's 2025 population estimate. The trend supports a broader investment thesis centered on lifestyle migration, recreational demand, second-home ownership and residential growth within the Clarks Hill Lake market.
Although The Retreat offers the privacy and recreational character of a lake-oriented community, the property is positioned within the broader economic influence of the Augusta metropolitan region. Augusta was recently ranked the nation's No. 1 "City on the Rise" by LinkedIn, reflecting increasing employment opportunity and workforce growth. This regional momentum strengthens the long-term case for residential and recreational development within surrounding lifestyle markets.

Description

128.75± Acres | Clarks Hill Lake | Lincoln County, Georgia Exceptional opportunities are seldom found in locations where natural beauty, infrastructure, accessibility, and long-term growth converge. The Retreat at Soap Creek represents one of the most compelling large-scale development opportunities currently available on Clarks Hill Lake, offering approximately 128.75 acres across three contiguous parcels in one of Georgia's most desirable lakefront markets. Strategically positioned along State Highway 378, the property features extensive highway and secondary road frontage that provides outstanding visibility, multiple access points, and exceptional flexibility for future development. With county water available, developers can capitalize on existing infrastructure while creating a well planned community, luxury residential development, mixed-use destination, hospitality development, or commercial corridor designed to serve the growing lake market. Few development sites offer this combination of scale, accessibility, and proximity to recreation. Located just moments from Soap Creek Marina, future residents and visitors will enjoy immediate access to one of the Southeast's premier freshwater recreation destinations. Clarks Hill Lake encompasses more than 70,000 acres of water and approximately 1,200 miles of shoreline, offering world-class boating, sailing, fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, water skiing, and year-round outdoor recreation. Tvans, Georgia--one of the fastest-growing communities in the Augusta metropolitan area--is located less than 30 miles away, providing convenient access to major employers, healthcare systems, upscale retail, dining, and professional services. Lincoln County is experiencing increasing attention from developers and investors as growth expands outward from the Augusta market. Continued population growth, expanding recreational tourism, and sustained demand for lake-oriented residential communities have positioned the area for long-term appreciation. Opportunities of this caliber--particularly on Clarks Hill Lake--are exceptionally limited. The Retreat at Soap Creek offers developers the rare opportunity to create a landmark destination where luxury living, outdoor recreation, commercial opportunity, and enduring investment value come together in one of Georgia's most promising lakefront markets. This is more than a development opportunity--it is the chance to define the future of one of the Southeast's premier lake communities.
