The Greyfield Inn, Cumberland Island, Georgia
The Greyfield Inn is furnished today as it was at the turn of the century,
with contemporary amenities blended in with the comfort of our guests in mind....
a grand and graceful mansion located on Georgia's largest and southernmost coastal island, Cumberland Island, Georgia. Built in 1900 as a home for Lucy and Thomas Carnegie's daughter, Margaret Ricketson, it was opened as an inn in 1962 by Margaret's daughter, Lucy R. Ferguson, and her family.
Cumberland Island is designated a National Seashore, and, as such, is preserved and protected from development. The daily visitor rate is limited, ensuring a tranquil setting for the island's population of wild horses, deer, bobcat, boar, armadillos and birds. Greyfield's private compound includes more than 200 acres for guest use. Spend your days birding (over 300 species appear during the course of a year), swimming, biking, hiking, kayaking and fishing, or simply stroll our pristine, white sand beach and savor unparalleled privacy.
