Michael and Kimberly Duke bought a small cabin on the Canoochee River to enjoy as a family.
They decided to list it on a vacation rental site.
As this property was in full demand, another property became available to buy.
As interest began to increase, the family decided open up the options for their visitors.
At this current date, they have four cabins and a yurt, as well as, tent sites. We are excited about the yurt that was completed in August 2019. They are looking forward having another cabin in the near future.
Learn more about this land:
Spend a few days in a yurt on the bank of the Canoochee River!
Locate a few miles from a small town.
Grocery store, gas station, and dollar store!
Wake up to the music of the birds and sit on the deck as you enjoy the fresh air!
Take in nature like it was meant to be.

My cousin loved to fish and purchased 100 acres of land here 50 years ago. I wound up with this part of the property which is now surrounded by Big Hammock wildlife management area. For the past 47 years I’ve gone here to enjoy the river. The Ohoopee river splits here on the opposite bank and forms a 100 acre island before flowing into the nearby Altamaha river. Usually the river flow slows and kayaking around the island is pretty easy. There is a lot of wildlife to see here with white tail deer, turkey, waterfowl, beavers, otters, feral hogs and predators. The island is a favorite roost for every species of birds. During dry periods, the Ohoopee river water gets very clear with visibility greater than 6’ at times.

Kayaking in the river, fishing, laying on the beach, wildlife viewing in this quiet setting where the Ohoopee river splits apart around a 100 acre island right before running into the Altamaha river.

Dayna was a helpful host. It was a great spot to stop and spend the night as I was traveling farther north. The restroom was clean and the campground was quiet. There were beautiful wisteria that cave a great scent to the campground.

Me , My husband and my dog Sophia had a great stay at Catherine’s place . We arrived late and luckily we keep communicating with Catherine to find her place, she was waiting for us and greeted us, we felt special and at home . The place had plenty of room for our 37 ft fifth wheel and long bed truck . We will definitely recommend this place to anyone that wants to have a safe and comfortable spot .. 5 star ⭐️

That place is in a beautiful and remote area, far from highways, close to water (swimmin possible). Hosts (Dana and her husband) are very nice and welcoming people, trying to please guests to their best. I used firepit to prepare my dinner and observe sky as there is a lot of open unobstructed area.

Though I wasn’t able to meet Catherine in person, she was always available and very personable. The property is historic, and charming, with the biggest oak trees I’ve ever seen! We were provided with a fire ring, and ample firewood, and had an enjoyable stay. The dogs loved having room to roam, with a little bit of woods to explore.

I loved tent camping here! Me, a buddy, and my doggo camped under the trees here for 2 nights. The place is great and well taken care of and the host Lorine was a dream Super Host! She let us use her spring water to top off our containers, sprayed the grounds with anti-bug spray, and checked on us occasionally to make sure we needed anything while also giving us a tour of her grounds! Loved sharing stories with you Lorine! Will definitely be back here again.

Catherine was very accommodating. The water, electricity and outdoor shower worked well. Our spot was flat. The dogs barked when we got there but were quiet throughout our stay. The noise from the road could get loud but did not bother us at all with our airconditioner on. 30 minute drive to Savannah
