Meet Us at Crooked River State Park!
Adventure is calling once again! Get away with your FBC family and friends at the gorgeous Crooked River State Park February 13-16, 2027! (As always, come early or stay later than those dates if you like.) Located just a few miles from I-95 on the southern tip of Georgia’s Colonial Coast, this park is the perfect spot for enjoying the Intracoastal Waterway and maritime forest. Campsites are surrounded by palmettos and Spanish moss-draped oaks, while cottages are set near the tidal river. A boat ramp is popular with anglers who often take to the water before sunrise. Just down the road is the ferry to famous Cumberland Island National Seashore known for secluded beaches and wild horses.
The park’s nature trail winds through forest and salt marsh, and hikers may see gopher tortoises, fiddler crabs, herons and other birds. A nature center features fish, snakes, turtles and other animals native to coastal Georgia. Visitors may venture to the nearby ruins of a tabby mill, built around 1825 and later used as a starch factory during the Civil War. We can even take an optional day trip over to Cumberland Island.
Getting away into nature with FBC folk is an excursion you just don’t want to miss! We have a worship service on Sunday morning and a meal together. Don’t wait to book your accommodations because Georgia’s state parks fill up quickly!
