Built in 1919, the Crane Cottage was one of the most expensive homes ever built on Jekyll Island during the Jekyll Island Club era. The Italian Renaissance mansion was designed to resemble a villa in northern Italy admired by Richard Teller Crane Jr. Landscaped gardens were an important component of the estate's beauty.
