In 1880, the property where the Southern Wind Inn is now located was owned by Charles P. W. Meeder. Meeder was a prominent figure in St. Augustine, and his influence extended into various aspects of the city's development during that era. The home has changed hands and purposes over the years, eventually becoming the bed and breakfast it is today since 1991.
It's been offering its cozy accommodations and historic charm to guests in St. Augustine since then, contributing to the city's appeal as a popular destination for travelers seeking a blend of historical ambiance and modern comfort.
