The Story of
Big Jim
Big Jim Self was both the
brains and the brawn
behind Palmetto Dunes.
He purchased the resort
in 1979 and his vision was
to create a world-class
vacation destination
renowned for great homes,
outstanding golf, beautiful
beaches and activities
for everyone.
Standing just 5’7” and given his father’s name, he was
burdened with the nickname “Little Jim” for most of his life.
That is until his grandkids saved the day. To his credit, he
was able to convince them to call him “Big Jim”, and the new
name soon caught on with everyone else.

He was a big thinker with big dreams who provided the
philosophy and set the tone for Palmetto Dunes’ impressive
growth and development over the past 30+ years.
All kids meals come with a choice of fries,

While not big in stature, Big Jim Self was bigger than life in so
many ways. He graduated from The Citadel in 1941, serving
with distinction in the military in W.W.II where he achieved the
rank of Major. He was a proud father of four —two sons and
two daughters. He was responsible for growing one of the
world’s most successful textile organizations, Greenwood
Mills in Greenwood SC. His involvement with Hilton Head
Island began with a conversation with Charles Fraser, the
visionary behind Hilton Head. The story goes that Charles
Fraser wanted to build an executive (9-hole) course at
Sea Pines, but Big Jim said “no, Hilton Head needs a
championship course”. The Greenwood construction crews
arrived a few weeks later, saying “we’re here to build your golf
course”. And so the Sea Pines Ocean Course, the first golf
course on the Island, was built on a handshake.
Jim Self was awarded honorary Doctorate degrees from
seven South Carolina universities and was presented with
The Order of the Palmetto, South Carolina’s highest honor,
given for lifetime achievement. He was also an avid hunter,
fisherman, sportsman, and accomplished golfer —exercising
those talents all over the world. The blue marlin on the wall,
one of Big Jim’s many sporting adversaries, was caught off
the coast of Baja and took over four hours to land.
But one of Big Jim’s biggest claims to fame has to have been
his culinary skill. From his own special barbecue sauce to
his renowned Tennessee cole slaw, Big Jim’s recipes were
always in demand among friends and family. And, whenever
anyone sat down to eat at Big Jim’s, they could expect
nothing less than great food, great drinks, great fun,
and great stories.
Nothing has changed in the restaurant
named in Big Jim’s honor.
