About this property

Eureka Club-Farr's Point is a resort cottage on the southern end of Wilmington Island, Georgia. It overlooks the marshes of the Wilmington River on the west and Sheepsheads Creek (maybe a branch of Halfmoon River) on the east. It was built in 1891 for seasonal use as a club and was later used as a private vacation house. The one-story main house is L-shaped and has been expanded over the years. It is raised on cedar posts. The two chimneys have corbel caps. The property includes a small pump house with a cylindrical water tank on a platform.
