If raising kids isn’t adventure enough, active moms will love our lineup of island attractions, from the leisurely Amelia River Cruises to the exciting Skydive Amelia. Visitors love to kayak through the beautiful salt marshes, hike or bike miles of trails, explore the destination on segways, and relive the destination’s history at the Amelia Island Museum of History or Fort Clinch State Park. Or make it even more memorable with a horseback ride along the shoreline or view from a flying trike.

The “Commodores” had their annual Christmas party luncheon here with us at the Williams House. Lots of fun and a great group of ladies!
We started out with a Fruitini (fresh fruit with an enhanced yogurt topping), a salad of fresh tender mixed greens, cranberries and mandarins with a citrus strawberry vinaigrette. The main course was Asparagus Quiche, Sweet Potato Souffle and our signature Chicken Casserole with its almond and celery creamy rich goodness! Somewhere in the middle of all of this freshly baked Maple Pecan Scones were served with the heavenly coveted devonshire cream and for dessert there were rum pecan cookies, chocolate covered strawberries and pecan cranberry torte’s!
Mmmmm! Good times!

Hitting the Road for the Holidays
Traditions are a big part of the holiday season. You can usually look forward to a gathering with family and friends to savor delicious food, eggnog and delectable desserts while sharing stories of days gone by. But, what if you decided to take your holiday revelry on the road this year?
While you’re leaving familiar rituals behind, there are some advantages to a bed and breakfast holiday getaway. Not only will you still be able to partake in joyous celebrations, but also enjoy some R&R. You can focus on the beautifully decorated shops from your horse-drawn carriage ride or decide to stay in your pajamas and sample sweet treats while others take care of the preparations. If the brisk air and arriving snow has you running for the hills, turn around and make your way to the warmth of Florida. At the Amelia Island Williams House located on Amelia Island, you’ll get to admire the inn’s holiday décor before taking a horse-drawn carriage ride through historic streets lit up in twinkling lights.
