Whalehead Club, Art Nouveau mansion in Corolla, North Carolina, United States.

Whalehead Club is a three-story, 20-room Art Nouveau house built 1922–1925 on a dredged island facing Currituck Sound. Its shallow, elongated plan and curving gables recall the rural Quebec buildings of Marie-Louise Knight's childhood, and the roof is covered with more than 10,000 hand-cut copper shingles.

Edward and Marie Louise Knight built this waterfront property between 1922 and 1925 as an alternative to male-only hunting clubs common in the region. The construction marked a shift from exclusive male-dominated clubs toward modern family residences.

The Knights named the house Corolla Island after its position outside Corolla village, and its water-lily motif recurs throughout: Tiffany lily shades hang above the front door, and hand-carved lily impressions accent the dining room paneling. The kitchen's rose-colored tiles honor head cook Mary Rose Alvernas.

Visitors should note that pathways through the property are winding and interior spaces include multiple staircases requiring mobility. Exploring the house with a guide is best, as they explain the architectural features and original furnishings in detail.

The house was built on land bought from the Lighthouse Club, a shooting club Edward Knight acquired; the dredged channel turned the site into Corolla Island. The Knights' Tiffany lily lamps and Louis Majorelle furniture were later sold with the estate for $25,000 after their deaths in 1936.
