Kilkenny Club is an unincorporated community and tidal station in Bryan County, Georgia, United States. Situated on the southeast end of Kilkenny Road and the western shore of Kilkenny Creek, its nearest city is Richmond Hill. Kilkenny Club is the location of Kilkenny, a plantation house listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.
The community takes its name from The Kilkenny Club, a seven-member consortium who took over the plantation and its house in the late 1880s to host summer fishing vacations. The house (originally built in 1845) became the consortium's clubhouse, and up to 30 people at a time were invited to stay there. By 1913 when the property was sold to a Mr. R. C. Paschall, the house itself was in considerable disrepair. It was later restored as a private home following Henry Ford's acquisition of the property in 1930. The house was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in February 1979.
