Call us bias, but there’s nothing better than small town life. When the "blue roof cottage by the tracks" (yes, it used to have a unique blue roof) hit the market in early 2021, we knew it had to be ours! We purchased it & flipped it into a vacation home for guests of Folkston .. and The Conductor's Corner was born. Because we are also avid RV'ers, we thought what better way to finish off our corner than to add a few first-class RV sites to accommodate the camping community.
We hope you enjoy your stay on our corner!
In a small town in the south, where the Okefenokee Swamp runs deep and railfans thrive, the Conductor’s Corner stands out. The Conductor’s Corner features 3 premium RV sites directly on the rail lines of the Folkston Funnel. This railfan's dream neighbors the Folkston Railfan Train Platform. The spacious concrete pads are perfect for a night of watching trains under the stars.
20x50 concrete pads with 30/50 amp power, water, sewer, Wifi & picnic tables.
A quick 3 minute walk from the Conductor’s Corner will lead to the heart of Main Street where visitors will find a plethora of hidden treasures: coffee shops, boutiques, local eateries, the Train Museum and so much more. Guests could spend a day exploring the habitats and waterways of the Okefenokee Swamp or take a short drive to neighboring communities such as Cumberland Island, Savannah, Golden Isles or Amelia Island or Jacksonville in Florida. All the comforts of home and the utmost southern hospitality are included in your stay on our corner.
The Conductor's Corner also includes a vacation cottage available for rent (sleeps 6).

🌿 Welcome to Blackwater, Y’all!
Just 40 minutes outside Jacksonville, Blackwater is a secluded 10+ acre private riverfront property located at Georgia’s southernmost tip, right on the FL-GA line.
Surrounded by protected preserve and tucked along a quiet river bend, Blackwater delivers “Old Florida” vibes, unspoiled nature, a peaceful country feel, and privacy you won’t find at a public campground.
Across the river views, you’ll find 150+ acres of untouched Florida preserve, giving you a peaceful, remote feel while still being close to town for essentials.
We are situated on the St. Marys River, a rain-fed river flowing from the Okefenokee Swamp. Natural tannins from peat give the water its famous black appearance in deeper areas and golden “sweet tea” in the shallows.
✔️ Clean, refreshing water - safe for swimming (no gators!)
✔️ Naturally antibacterial
✔️ No pollutants or runoff
✔️ No smell, mud, or rocky bottom
✔️ Soft white sugar-sand riverbed
The property sits on Trail Ridge, an ancient coastal dune formation over 10,000 years old. This unique elevation creates a rare natural sugar-sand riverbank and swimming area perfect for cooling off on hot summer days.
🌱 A Rare Southern Ecosystem
Blackwater sits at the intersection of riverfront, ancient shoreline, upland hardwood forest, and cypress wetlands, all on one property. Pines, live oaks, saw palmettos, wax myrtle, and wild huckleberry fill the landscape, creating a diverse Southern ecosystem rarely found in a single place.
🏕️ Camping for Families and Groups
Well-spaced sites across open wooded areas allow guests to spread out without the packed-in feel of state parks. Ideal for tent camping, vanlife, families, and small or large group gatherings looking to connect with nature and each other.
A large 70ft covered riverfront pavilion with power, water, hammocks, and a firepit overlooks the river.

It’s hard to put into words how my camping experience was at Blackwater Ranch Campground… serene, relaxing. Three days wasn’t enough, so I extended it two more days and I had the campground to myself the whole time, just me and my doggie and he didn’t have to be on a leash. The host was awesome! He welcomed me and gave me a complementary bundle of wood to get me started. I came to rejuvenate myself and I’m so incredibly sad to leave! But I’m sure anyone would be sad leaving here to go back to Minnesota 😭. It was such a blessing. I recommend it to everyone! The perfect little getaway! White sand beaches along the river. Nice little walking paths in the woods. I’ll definitely be coming back!

This was our third trip out here. We usually book one of the larger sites, but this one was perfect for a weekend with my son.
Site #2 is simple, quiet, and private. Easy drive up access. Plenty of room for a tent and a solid fire setup. The river access is the highlight. Calm water. Clean shoreline. Great spot for morning coffee and winding down at night.
If you are bringing a larger group, book one of the bigger sites on the property. For two people, this one is dialed in.
Host communication was clear and consistent as always.
We will be back.

We showed up at Deep Bend Landing for just a nights stay while passing through. Passing through sounds interesting in this area because this campground is waaaaay back in the country, but my wife and I are photographers—having a hobby side with abandonment, etc. There’s plenty of this genre in the deep country of Georgia.
Even though I didn’t get the notifications, Ron worked hard to contact us so we would not be lost when we got there. Meeting with a smile and handshake, he showed us to our location and offered any answers to questions we had.
A little about the campground. This is a no frills location. While that does not appeal to some, it’s an absolutely dreamboat to people like my wife and I. The area was so peaceful and the campground was extremely quiet and peaceful—despite having multiple spots filled. The sites were spacious with lots of shade. This is the PERFECT campground for people who just want time in nature—camping. While we were just passing through this time, we’ve discussed returning on another date to possibly stay for a few days and comb the area for photography treasures.

He wanted to make sure i understood it was not going to be quiet, I had purchased ear plugs for this stop. The grounds were clean and well maintained.

If someone asked me what an idyllic spot to park my camper looked like, I would say someplace quiet, where I can see all the stars in the sky, nothing but nature out my front door, and maybe the occasional train horn in the distance to remind me that civilization still exists. That's Ron and Sue's property, Camp Z. I spent the week, but I could've stayed a month. If you're heading north or south through Georgia, make sure you make your way to Folkston to find Camp Z. You'll be rewarded with peach, quiet and tranquility. Idyllic!

Our small men’s Christian group camped at Blackwater during the freeze of 2026, and it was an amazing experience despite the cold. The large pavilion was a game changer, cutting most of the high winds and giving us a great place to gather.
The sunsets were incredible, and the full moon at night paired with the firepit, adult beverages, and campfire stories made it a trip we won’t forget. We’ve camped at hundreds of campgrounds, and Blackwater is easily one of the best in Florida. Clean bathrooms, a great host, and well-maintained grounds made it easy to unwind and unplug from everyday life. We’ll definitely be back each year.

Probably the best and most relaxing 8 nights we ever spent camping. We had 10 acres fenced in and there were 6 horses in the 20 acre field in front of us. We could let the pups out and they loved the horses and the horses were interested in them. We could only see one house in the distance and it was in the suburbs of Jacksonville Florida and close to everything. The site had complete hookups including water, sewer and 50 amp electric.
If you need to camp near Jacksonville this is the spot you want to use.

I circled the weird part of Georgia that dips into Florida on a map and asked my local born friends "what goes on in the dingus?" After the laughter subsided we found Blackwater Ranch and decided to give it a try. What a lovely, family friendly place. Clean bathrooms, running water, electricity, and a very unique location! Camping here in January lets you benefit from the lack of bugs while still enjoying this very clean and well maintained campground. The host's instructions were clear and easy to follow and the list of nearby amenities and entertainment was very cool to look through. I was surprised to have 5 bars of 5G on Google Fi here which is handy unless you're hiding from work during a forecasted ice storm back home. If you're bringing a large group of people and are pressed for space you can leave the chairs home. The pavilion comes fully stocked with every kind of camp chair you can imagine. Tent sites are nice and large and I couldn't find a single rock the whole weekend. No worries about setting up a tent on rough or uneven ground. Hammock campers may want to look into sites other than site 1 with maybe only 3 viable trees to hang from. All in all it was a fun weekend at a very nice campground. We'll be coming back!
