2014 Map of Boons Lake

About this map

The Satilla River meanders through the heart of this coastal Georgia landscape, forming a complex network of wetlands and oxbows at the convergence of Brantley, Camden, and Charlton Counties. This 2014 survey documents a region defined by its water-bound geography, where named bluffs like Upper Hog Pen Bluff and Big Oak Oquin Bluff overlook the winding river channel. The river's path is marked by distinctive features such as Knee Buckle and the Buffalo Reaches, creating a labyrinthine environment of islands and lakes including Blues Island and Boons Lake. Away from the riverbanks, the terrain transitions into the expansive Cross Swamp. Settlement is sparse, characterized by rural homesteads and agricultural operations like Creek View Farms, while local history is preserved at the Bethlehem Cem and Dowling Cem. The map provides a detailed look at the local road network, including the Wainright Loop and Riverside Rock Rd, which connect these isolated landings and rural communities.
