A lake with a small bridge is the main attraction, with some areas around it to walk and a picnic enclosure. The highway is nearby and audible to some extent. There are some short trails, but signs caution against swimming in the water (which is true pretty much anywhere in the region given the robust reptile population).

It was a beautiful day last Friday and my youngest and I had been cooped up in the house most of…read morethe week, so for Adventure Friday, we decided to explore Chatham County Wetlands Preserve. This 494-acre wetland preserve and park is another piece of property purchased by Chatham County. They created a 20-acre lake and have planted more than 20,000 trees. This park is tucked away on Highway 17, on Chief of Love Road. Parking - When you turn off on Hwy 17, you just have to continue driving until you get to a fork in the road. I stayed to the left and then we found ourselves in a huge gravel lot where it seemed the most appropriate to park the car. Trail Description - Once I parked the car, we walked to the fork where I could see the barrier and hiking sign (I saw it on the drive in). We started there and kept to the left. It started out as a pretty well marked path, under the trees. Once you get out of the shaded part, it's just grassy. It will bring you around the lake, and it's wide open, so there is no way you would get lost. We opted to take a shortcut and cut through on the bridge. There was a man there fishing. He said some days the fish bite like crazy and other says, nothing, so just a tip to anyone who likes to go fishing. There are picnic tables and a covered picnic area in the middle by the bridge that are great spots for meal and snack breaks. There were beautiful flowers along the way and also a patch of what I think are called Cypress Trees at one end of the lake. They are pretty much dead, but I thought they were pretty to look at the cluster of them. The reflection of the trees on the sunny day was just perfect. My Fitbit clocked the portion we did as about 1 mile. Kid-Friendly - Absolutely! Very flat trail, however not paved. Unless you have a B.O.B or a jogging stroller with bike-like tires, I would just use a baby carrier. Thankful that Chatham County is very nature focused and is committed to providing green space in the area for its residents. There seemed to be another trail by the park sign, so we will have to come back to explore that portion!

He got there a few weeks before I did and Melanie, the owner, was in constant contact with me about him. Anytime my horse has had medical issues, she immediately let's me know with updates. I was deployed for 9 months and didn't worry about leaving him there. Melanie sent pictures while I was away. I have been there for over 3 years and I hate to leave. I have never had any drama there, have always been able to go and enjoy riding when I want, and can trust that he will be fed and happy. Highly recommend to all horse owners!!!

Rob is a stand up guy. Excellent local dive shop. I'm so glad it's here in Richmond Hill. They do a significant amount of dive training of all locals and many people from Ft. Stewart. Rob and staff did a great job training my college age daughters for advanced diving certification. It's a great place to get tanks filled and gear serviced, see Scuba Pro stuff and talk diving. This is a great place for experienced divers to stock up or to get beginner certified. Right off I95 and exit 90 in Richmond hill, exit and turn two quick rights and it's less than a 1/2 mile off the exit. Closest dive shop to I95 between North Carolina and South Florida (can find one shop of I295 in Jacksonville). Down to earth , very good people who have been here in Richmond Hill for years and now he also owns and runs the best dive shop in Savannah (which he managed years ago). If you are I.

They do a "date night" every other month on the third Thursday, and then a "social" on the alternating month. They are free; just need to sign up on their website. They also plan and book scuba trips if you are already certified and are looking for a group to join! My husband, daughter, and I just finished the PADI open water scuba certification and we had a blast! We cannot wait to try our new skills out! Would highly recommend this place to anyone!

The wildlife refuge, like a lot of land in the area, used to be a plantation and was converted into small farms after the Civil War. More surprisingly, it also used to have a WWII-era airfield. This means that much of the reserve is actually paved because its the remnants of said facility. The signs of the park's pastoral era are less evident, but an isolated stone fountain hints at the mansion that once occupied the area. Now the place is consumed with Spanish Moss and various tropical plant life. There is a loop which offers some waterside access. It isn't exactly prime tourist territory, but this is a wildlife refuge and not a park, so if you go in expecting something touristy you're in the wrong place. I did not see any alligators, but coming during the winter also meant that I wasn't swarmed by bugs, which is often the case around these parts. But for the hardy adventurer, this is an intriguing site.
