We Just Got Back: Jekyll Island Edition!
Monday, August 25th, 2008
The popular family travel website, wejustgotback.com, recently featured a new tip sheet on Jekyll Island and the historic Jekyll Island Club Hotel! Correspondent Nadine Burke, her husband, and three young children stay at the Jekyll Island Club Hotel and described it as “relaxing, comfortable and somewhat luxurious, but not pretentious.”
The Burkes loved that Jekyll Island offers tradition resort activities like tennis and golf, but at wallet-pleasing prices. They were also delighted with the children-friendly amenities like Summer Waves Water Park, bike rentals and trails, and the Georgia Sea Turtle Center. Thanks to Nadine, Tom, Tommy, Sophia, and Isabel, and to We Just Got Back for giving Jekyll Island an A rating!
