It was built about 1927, and includes a manor house and outbuildings constructed as a hunting lodge for George A. Ellis, a prominent New York financier and co-founder of E. F. Hutton & Co.
The manor house is a 1+1⁄2-story, asymmetrical brick building with a rectangular central mass, and two single story wings—an American interpretation of the Shavian Manor Style, defined by the neo-medieval work of the English architect Richard Norman Shaw.
In 1963 the property was sold to the Low Country Girl Scout Council, who maintained it as a camp until 2011.
[2][3][4] The property was sold, via absolute auction, to a private buyer in 2013 but remains under the terms of a conservation easement.
