Bostwick's Magnolia Manor was named after a magnificent magnolia tree that Laura Bostwick planted over 50 years ago. Laura was a legend in her own right, being the Great Granddaughter of Jabez Bostwick, a founding partner of Standard Oil. She loved everything about this home, the grounds, the views, and the privacy it offered, but most of all, she loved Wanchese and its people. As an avid big game fisherman and gourmet chef, Laura loved to entertain and host huge dinner parties. Her parties included a vast mix of characters from the who's who of New York City to the lowly local fishermen, making it a unique experience for all. Originally built in 1930, Laura Bostwick acquired the estate in 1978 and made it her home for 43 years until her passing in 2021.
As the new owner, I am honored to keep her home and legacy alive. Come and experience the magic of Bostwick's Magnolia Manor for yourself. Book your stay now and create unforgettable memories at this special place that Laura loved so much.
