About this house rental
The river is calling your name! Answer the call at Skip’s River Cabin on the Upper St. Marys River between Folkston and St. George, Georgia. Sits right at the river’s edge, the cabin is the perfect home away from home for outdoor enthusiasts and adventurers.
Located just 3 miles from the East entrance to the legendary Okefenokee Swamp, this retreat serves up a bounty of fishing opportunities. Bring your small boat or just enjoy swimming, kayaking, and canoeing the beautiful St Marys River.
Important note: The St Mary’s river floods every other other year or so and when it does, the road in can be impassable. There are two options: I can make arrangements to have canoes there for you to load and paddle a short distance to the cabin or you will need to cancel as the guest and get a full refund. We know several days in advance when its going to flood and I will let you know as sops as I see I will flood. It’s actually my wife and my favorite time to go during the rare flood. It’s an island paradise and an incredible adventure. (-:

We had a great, relaxing weekend. Everything was as advertised and just what we were looking for.

Cool location. Wildlife everywhere, quite, peaceful, easy to find.
6 / 10Average·Feb 2025
Beware of sulfur water and a problem with limited hot water for showers. The kitchen and bathroom could use an update. The entire house could use a decluttering and purge of worn-out, damaged items (pots and pans, blankets, window treatments, towels, etc). However, we enjoyed our stay. The remote setting is quiet and relaxing. The outdoor space is a wonderful place to unwind and take in nature. They have a fun display of collectibles that adds whimsy to the ambiance.
