January 8,
1886, saw the purchase/ incorporation of the Jekyll Island Club. The
purchase, by a group of society's wealthy elite led by such names as
Astor, Gould, Rockefeller, Morgan and Pulitzer, was done to form a
winter hunting retreat. Architect Charles A. Alexander was
commissioned to design and build a sixty room Clubhouse. The
Clubhouse was finished November 1, 1887, with the first official
season beginning in January, 1888. In 1978, the 240-acre club
district was designated a National Historic Landmark. In 1985, work
began to restore the Clubhouse, Annex and the Sans Souci into a
world-class hotel and resort named the Jekyll
Island Club.
The Club's
guest rooms and suites have been custom decorated in a style
befitting the elegance presumed by the original millionaire owners.
Two-poster mahogany beds, armoires, chairs, sofas, desks and tables
are enhanced by rich fabrics and plush carpeting. All rooms have
interior shutters.
