Built in 1928, this classic Addison Mizner hotel had long been a well-known property along the south Georgia coast. Seventy years later, The Sea Island Company built a new hotel, utilizing many of the original architectural elements of the historic structure. Large oak trees planted during construction of the original hotel were left preserved. Landscape design was completed in partnership with Vassa Cate of the Sea Island Company.
