Here at Low Branch Farm, we want you to experience the natural beauty of the area. This area is magical, as we back up to a tidal marsh, the Spanish moss blows in the wind of the tall oaks planted firmly in the ground, the pines create a sanctuary to the lightning bugs that show up at the beginning and end of summer. My husband and I are world travelers who enjoy meeting people and share stories. We have two sites where people can tent camp, both with firepits. We have a spot for your car/camper/RV. We do have two farm dogs and a cat, so if we approve your animals, please keep them on the leash at all times! We are currently working on building an outdoor flushing toilet and shower for our campers! We have four kayaks that are available upon request if you want to explore the last bit of the Sapelo River. There is alot to check out in this neck of the woods, but also several areas just to chill in nature on our property.

Florida Georgia Line River Camp

25 sites · RVs, Tents10 acres · GA

Welcome, y'all, to Blackwater Ranch, where the sun shines bright and the river flows steadily. We're nestled right on the most southern part of Georgia, on the Florida-Georgia line, where the pristine Blackwaters of the Saint Mary’s River meander through the countryside. Conveniently located only 45 minutes from the Southside of Jacksonville and St. Augustine, it's only an hour's drive. Blackwater Ranch spans 10 acres and boasts 1300 feet of scenic riverfront, complemented by 2 acres of open field. The rest of the property is lush woods where the pines sway in the wind and wild blueberries/huckleberries grow everywhere! We have some of the largest and oldest cultivars you can find, all-natural (organic), the way God intended, some standing over 10 feet tall! Feel free to forage during your stay; they are all edible & oh-so-tasty! We cater exclusively to private venue events, tent campers, and small camping trailers, ensuring a peaceful retreat. The property is surrounded by over 150 acres of protected Florida Sanctuary woods/wetlands, ensuring a quiet and private stay. Most guests during their stay see very few people, if any at all, on the grounds and river, so if you're into privacy, you must check us out. Also, there is no one living on the property, so you don't have to worry about us bothering you or dogs greeting you when you arrive. Our facilities include an outhouse with lighting and a handwash sink. Additionally, we offer a spacious 70' covered pavilion, ideal for gatherings and events, available for reservation upon request. For recreational activities, guests can enjoy our trails around the property, 8' picnic tables perfect for outdoor dining, as well as fishing, kayaking, and swimming in the river with white beach sand under your feet (please be mindful of seasonal and local weather depth changes 2'-13') and some of the best nighttime stargazing around. We provide rental services for kayaks, canoes, and Jon boats, allowing guests to explore the Saint Mary’s River at their leisure. In the evening, gather around our firepit or have your own. Looking ahead, we are committed to enhancing our property with amenities such as hot showers, designated tent sites, and glamping options complete with fire pits and grills. Cabins are also in development. Join us at Blackwater Ranch for a unique outdoor experience. We are dedicated to creating memories for your exploration in a peaceful and relaxing outdoor environment. COMMON QUESTIONS: One question we receive all the time is... why is the river black? Great question! Well, the water is black because it is rich with tannins from the headwaters of the Okefenokee Wildlife Refuge, the largest blackwater swamp in North America, with its peat-filled freshwater. The water is actually tea-colored but appears black in water over 1' deep. Another question we get often is whether the river is safe to swim in. Of course, it is! In fact, the water might be one of the best types of water to swim/bathe in, due to the rich tannic acid in the water that kills odor-causing bacteria and mosquito larvae. So go ahead and take a dip and let the river wash away your troubles and worries. Is the river beach shelly/rocky/rough on the feet? It's honestly the opposite. Our property sits on an ancient oceanfront dune formed over 6,000 thousand years ago called "Trail Ridge". The property has soft white beach sand with very few sticks or branches in the water of the swimming areas. No need for swimming shoes, but feel free to bring them if you wish. Does the river stink or have a sulfur smell? NOPE! The river has no smell if any at all. How are the bugs? As for any wooded forested area, we highly recommend bug/tick spray. The property, in general, is not overrun by mosquitoes or bugs, but please plan accordingly. Are there wild animals on the property? YES, they can make an appearance at any time. Is hunting or firearms allowed? NOT AT ALL. This is a private retreat, not a hunting ground. BB guns are ok with adult supervision. Family Friendly? Yes, it is. We want the whole family to enjoy the great outdoors. PLEASE NOTE! No lifeguard is on duty so please keep a careful eye on your kids as the river current can be strong at times. SWIM AT YOUR OWN RISK! Are there any grocery or restaurants nearby? YES. There is a small county store with gas only a 2-minute drive with the cheapest priced ICE around, also a Dollar General (5 min drive), and a Walmart is only about a 10-minute drive away, and many other options for groceries and local restaurants. IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY: DIAL 911 or go to the Florida Line Police AG Inspection Station (1-minute drive) Hospital at Ed Fraser Memorial "159 N 3rd St, Macclenny, FL 32063" (10 minutes) Urgent Care at Family Care "9545 FL-228, Macclenny, FL 32063" (10 Minutes)

Beach camping in Georgia guide

Overview

Georgia's coastline offers a two-for-one destination: a 110-mile stretch of Atlantic coastline, plus 15 barrier islands just offshore. If you’re staying inland, pack your gear for a fishing and kayaking paradise along the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway, which winds through Georgia's lush lowcountry marshes. Or, head out to the islands for beach camping, birdwatching, and a taste of Georgia history, including Gullah-Geechee cultural heritage. Four major barrier islands are accessible by car and developed with plenty of amenities (Tybee, Jekyll, St. Simons, and Sea), while the remaining 11 are only accessible by boat and remain largely untouched, including the gorgeous Cumberland Island National Seashore—a favorite among naturalists. Due to the Georgia coastline’s mild climate, there’s something to do year-round. Temperatures peak in the summer, though, so be ready for hot weather from June through August.
