Old Barnwell offers a warm, welcoming, secluded retreat on 575 acres of rolling hills, sandy soil, and soaring pines.

The Willcox Hotel
Aiken is an original winter colony resort with a rich history, a sporting flare and an easy-going elegance that has attracted and captivated people from all over the world for over 100 years.
Building on Aiken’s tradition since 1898, The Willcox cultivates a sophisticated, yet informal glamour amidst America’s storied thoroughbred country. Cloud soft beds, an intimate Salon & Spa and one of the South’s Best Restaurants all in a setting of easygoing elegance.
Guest rooms at The Willcox are comfortable retreats luxuriously appointed. All are quiet and sumptuous with high ceilings, crown moldings, and restful, cloud-soft beds blanketed in cool, crisp linen.
The Willcox was built in the late 19th century for well-to-do Yankees seeking warmth, light and high society. Aiken was popular with the swells and dandies of the Gilded Age, and they came in such numbers every winter that the town was dubbed the “Winter Colony.” Great dances were held, and ballrooms glittered with candlelight. Old rivals, fiercely competitive but impeccably polite, settled their differences on the polo field. Grand picnics in Hitchcock Woods were laid out with silver, crystal and linen. Politicians, royalty and captains of industry often visited The Willcox.
The far-reaching reputation of The Willcox was built on its atmosphere, impeccable service and excellent cuisine. Famous guests included Winston Churchill, Harold Vanderbilt, W.R. Grace, Elizabeth Arden and Count Bernadette of Sweden. Legend has it that Franklin Delano Roosevelt would ride his private train car to the back door and slip in quietly. The Prince of Wales was regretfully turned away for lack of space. And The Willcox doormen, sentries of society and taste, assessed the shoes of arriving guests before allowing them inside.
