Free camping, clean clear sites north of Okefenokee

This is a hunt camp so be sure to check the season before going. I went in late December and had the spot to myself. There was a little bit of trash but overall it was much cleaner than some other hunt camps I've stayed at. The site was clear with flat sandy ground. Perfect for pitching a tent and plenty of trees that would be good for hammocks. It rained all night so I didn't get any photos before packing up. All in all not a terribly awe inspiring place to camp but if you're needing to overnight in the area and there's not a hunt going on it should not disappoint. From US 1 take 177 east, look for the check station sign
