St George, GA · 10 sites · Tents, RVs
🏞️🌲 White Sand. Blackwater River. Oak and Pine Forest. Two States. A private riverfront escape just 40 minutes outside Jacksonville, right on the FL-GA line. 🌿 Welcome to Blackwater, a secluded 10+ acre private property on a quiet bend of the St. Marys River, with 150+ acres of protected Florida preserve directly across the river. This isn't your typical campground. We intentionally keep Blackwater small, quiet, and private, with plenty of room to spread out and enjoy the river and surrounding nature. And there's something pretty unusual about this place: The Florida–Georgia state line runs right through the river. You can literally swim between two states at once. 🏝️ The White-Sand River Beach: One of the things that makes Blackwater special is the white sugar sand along the river. Long before Blackwater was here, this part of Florida/Georgia was the ancient coastline. Today, where that old coastal ridge meets the St. Marys River, you'll find something pretty unusual: soft white sand along a dark blackwater river. 🌊 The St. Marys River: The St. Marys is a freshwater, rain-fed river flowing from the Okefenokee Swamp. Naturally filtered water carries Tannins from peat, giving the deeper water its black color, while the shallows are a beautiful golden “sweet tea” color. 🏊 Swim it. 🛶 Paddle it. 🎣 Fish it. 🌿 Or just sit with your feet in it. 🏕️ The Riverfront Pavilion: Right at the water's edge is our 70-foot covered riverfront pavilion, overlooking the river. It's the perfect place to escape the sun ☀️, wait out an afternoon rain 🌧️, cook a meal 🍳, play a game 🎲, gather around the fire 🔥, or simply watch the river. ⚡ Power 💧 Water 💡 Lights 🌀 Fans 🪑 Tables & Chairs 🔥 Grills & Fire Pit 🎲 Games The pavilion is also available for private group camping, celebrations, small gatherings, and full-property buyouts. 🔐 Want the Whole Place to Yourself? Full-property bookings are available. Bring your people and make Blackwater your own private river retreat. 🌿 No crowds. No strangers next door. Just your group, the river, and the woods. 🌊🌲 🌲 Do Something. Or Nothing. 🏊 Swim 🛶 Paddle 🎣 Fish 🥾 Explore 🐦 Birdwatching 🔥 Sit around the fire ⭐ Look at the stars 📶 Cell service is limited (a chance to unplug) 🦃 Yes, We Have Turkeys. Free-ranging heritage/wild turkeys roam the property and call Blackwater home. You may wake up to them wandering through the campsite in the morning :) They're part of the experience. 🐕 Dogs are welcome — FREE. Because our turkeys roam freely, dogs must remain under control and may not chase, harass, or attack the birds. 🧭 Want to Explore? 📍 St. Marys Shoals Park — just minutes away 📍 Okefenokee Swamp National Wildlife Refuge @ Okefenokee Adventures A private piece of the St. Marys River where you can swim, paddle, fish, explore, gather with your people, or simply sit with your feet in the water and watch the afternoon go by. 🌅 Come slow down. The river will still be here. 🌿 Welcome to Blackwater, y'all.

Monticello, GA · 3 sites · Tents, RVs
We live on site on 17 acres that is surrounded by large tracts of undeveloped land with the Oconee National Forest within 1/4 mile and the Ocmulgee river within 1 mile. The name Seven Islands comes from the rich history of this area and the nearby trading site between Native Americans and settlers in the 1800s on the seven islands of the Ocmulgee River. For Equestrian campers, we have an electric hook-up near the house and a round-pen size paddock for horses (or can make panels into stalls) +$7/horse/night. (Note: We reserve the right to refuse lodging to horses with runny noses/runny eyes or otherwise sick). *Cabin being remodeled. To be open some time in 2025* We are happy to ride with you when available if desired - or we recommend using the Outdoor Active or Gaia app. Our tent camping area is a peaceful, shady area overlooking meandering Kinnard Creek. The dirt road is within view, but it is a country road rarely travelled by anyone other than kayakers and other recreationists. You may hear the friendly nicker or see our 3 horses coming to check you out, but their pasture area does not intrude on the camping area. Hike or ride your horses on the nearby trails. The Fried Green Tomatoes cafe and Sac-O-Suds (famous from the movie "My Cousin Vinny") [Edit: Sac-O-Suds store is currently closed. But still a scenic drive-by] are an easy drive as well as Covington GA where you can see The Vampire Diary clock tower (or take a tour of other filming locations). There are many quaint shops in town, a 10 minute drive, or in nearby Madison GA. This is a great country getaway to reconnect with nature and peace. We are just far enough away not to be intrusive, but near enough if you need assistance.
