General Information

1735 HOUSE OCEAN FRONT B & B - In 1735, the governor of Georgia, James Oglethorpe explored the Barrier island and claimed it for England, naming it Amelia Island after King George II's daughter Princess Amelia. The Inn was built in the 1920's and took its name from the year that Oglethorpe came to the island. The inn faces the Atlantic ocean and the weathered white wooden structure bears a charm, characteristic of New England. The interior, including the five suites, has a nautical theme.
