Greyfield Inn

• T+L 500 Winner

COST: $$$$

<p>The only hotel on the fiercely private Cumberland Island, the 4-story, 16-room property has no internet or cell service but with an 17-mile-long white-sand beach, who needs them? Book the east-facing Porch Suite, for its morning light then take a guided tour of the island's diverse fauna. The place is such a bolt-hole that John F. Kennedy Jr. chose Cumberland Island in 1996 when looking for a location for his wedding to Carolyn Bessette. </p><p><Strong>DON'T MISS </strong>Hunting down prehistoric shark's teeth, found all over the island—at creeksides, beaches, and occasionally even on the paths leading from the Greyfield Inn.</p>
