"Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and
leave a trail" -- Ralph Waldo Emerson.
Eagle Island is literally a world apart, in many ways. Accessible only by
boat through a meandering and scenic river route, this pristine barrier Island
on the Southeast coast of Georgia is the antidote to a stressful life. The first
sound you will hear as you disembark is nature. No vehicles, no loud music, no
sirens, not even another voice. What you will hear is the call of our local
shorebirds and the wind rustling through the centuries old oaks and palm trees.
Any other sounds you hear on Eagle Island are entirely up to you.
Enter the sanctuary of this controlled wilderness through a gate symbolic of
passage from one world to another. As you traverse the walkway, you will
immediately notice the tension draining from your body. Enter the porch of the
lodge and find yet another decadent surprise. A built-in outdoor fireplace is
perfectly situated directly in front of a hot tub. The porch of the lodge
encompasses the perimeter of the entire home and is completely screened. Enjoy
the extension of outdoor living with comfortable furniture including a hammock
and surprising homey touches.
The interior of the lodge will charm and delight you. It has been furnished
and outfitted to pamper the body and nourish the soul and does a fine job of
accomplishing its goal. The full length windows allow sunlight to fill the
entire lodge. The furniture is luxurious and centred around a beautiful brick
fireplace. A distinctive carving adorns above the fireplace and is reminiscent
of the Tree Spirits of St. Simons Island. Imagine cool fall evenings, a roaring
fire, spiced cider and your one and only.
Bedrooms are simple and elegant with the finest of linens. The bath is a
sensual delight with a double headed shower. There is an additional bunk/play
room at the lodge - a perfect set up for the children with plenty of bedding, a
ping-pong table and stereo. The lodge also provides everything you need for
fishing, crabbing, or just relaxing. Eagle Island also boasts a large fire pit
perfect for roasting marshmallows and spinning ghost stories. This fire pit is
just steps from the home and directly in front of the large fishing pond.
The lodge at Eagle is 10 acres of uninterrupted wilderness, the site of one
of only 17 bald eagle nests in the state of Georgia and nature in all its
undiluted majesty. This is the place for lovers to escape, for families to
reconnect and recharge, for couples to begin their lives together. It is a place
for a place to turn your face up to the sun and feel the gentle breeze on it, a
place to smile a contented smile, a place to just be...
Come to Eagle Island and remember when life was simple.
