Whalehead Mansion is in Corolla and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It’s a gorgeous 1920s mansion that has been fully restored, and a visit will take you back in time. A wealthy couple, Edward Collings Knight Jr and his wife, Marie Louise, built the mansion as a hunting lodge because Marie Louis was not allowed in many male-only hunting clubs. Today, you can see it as it was in its glory. Rumor has it that the Whalehead Mansion is haunted, so you may even smell Edward’s cigar smoke in the dining room.
