Reviews
"Historic home from turn of 20th century. Getting here is a journey and not easily attained."
"Small but colorful historic home on the remote north end of Cumberland Island. Beulah Alberty, the unofficial mayor of the Half Moon Bluff settlement, lived here most of her life. There are no exhibits so you will have to do some reading to learn about the significance of this place, or take a interpretive tour. This building is unlocked and has public restrooms."
