The Land and Legacy tour is wonderful . Cumberland Island is a rather large island and to see it in one day you really need to take the van tour. Mike our guide was super. As retired educators we were amazed at how he delivered the history of the island from the beginning history to the present. His knowledge of the people and the structures at Cumberland were unsurpassed ,a walking history book was he!!! This tour is definitely worth the price and then some. The roads were rough but that added to the adventure of exploring such a beautiful place! We saw lots of wildlife and are planning on returning with family and friends. Thanks again Mike for making our day GREAT.

I brought my husbands nephew and his family here to the park so they could see the river and so the kids could play after being in the car for two days...driving down from IN. It was wonderful!!! They all had a great time!!! Playing on the equipment, walking out on the pier, running around the fountain and finally swinging in the big swings. This really is a beautiful park!!!

This park provides good fishing, a Native American festival in August and a pleasant setting for hikers and campers.
Crooked River State Park is a real gem! It has a very large array of facilities in the Georgia pines, spread out along the majestic Crooked River. There is a boat ramp, bait shop, large picnic areas, entertainment facilities, cottages right along the water, RV and tent sites, miniature golf, bike rentals, outdoor fitness equipment, a nature center, and miles of beautiful walking trails. All the facilities were clean and well maintained, and the park rangers and volunteers were friendly and very helpful.

I was in St. Marys to work a job fair at the Kings Bay submarine base for transitioning veterans. We went to St. Marys to have lunch and the Submarine Museum was next door to the restaurant so after lunch we went to the Museum. The small admission charge was well worth the price, they have a movie about submarines, lots of memorabilia and a gift shop. There are two floors of exhibits, but they have a chair lift for those visitors that need the assistance getting to the second floor.

This is a great store with lots of little things ... gifts, nik nacks, tshirts, candy, etc. The fudge and pralines were delicious! Definitely a place to visit while in St. Mary's.

Walking around the ruins was very interesting, I was surprised that it was as large as that. Several paths along the ruins allow for some nice walks.
