History Buffs

We spotted an historical landmark sign from the road,
so we had to stop and check it out. You can tell how interesting
it is by Sydney's yawn. It reads:

THE BOAT HOUSE SITE

This is the site of the Jekyll Island Club Boat House where the
100 foot steamer "The Jekyll Island" was stored during the off
season. (The Club season was usually from after New Years
until before Easter).

There was no Jekyll Creek bridge (dedicated 1954), no Sidney
Lanier bridge (opened 1956) in the Jekyll Island Club era.
