Welcome
A 35-minute drive from Savannah's old world charm and historic attractions, Melon Bluff's unspoiled 2,200-acre landscape of woods, marshes and river provide miles and miles of private grassy trails abounding with wildlife. This gorgeous, pristine part of the vanishing Georgia coast offers sweeping river views, mysterious wetlands and majestic moss-draped ancient oaks. Over the past several hundred years, the land has been influenced by early Native American culture, Spanish occupation, the first introduction of African culture, English settlements and a once-thriving rice culture. It has also withstood the devastation of the Civil War, abandonment and subsistence farming...later contrasted to the glamour, bathtub gin and rum-running days of Prohibition. It has renewed itself after massive timbering, and now, instead of dying under asphalt and subdivisions, Melon Bluff has assumed a vital new life through historic and environmental research, education and eco-tourism.
