Mixon's Hammock Canoe Shelter

"The camp area is great but the public toilet on the island is a disgrace. It costs too much to camp and be forced to use that toilet. As you enter the camp ground, you WILL HAVE TO PADDLE AND WADE THROUGH THIS FECES FILLED WATER. BE READY!"

"Neat little canoe accessible campsite"

"Stayed here overnight with my wife at the end of Feb. 2019. Some of the weirdest night sounds imaginable that night. An easy paddle from Stephen C. Foster State park. Have to hang your food in a tree to avoid potential issues with prowling black bears at night. The bed of an old logging trail line is evident with a well used game trail right down the middle of it. Last used in about 1937 when the federal govt. bought the Okefenokee from a logging company called Hebardville Cypress Co. You do have the whole island to yourself when you camp there. Not a place for beginners, I would say."

"Nice area to explore and overnight."

"You get the whole island to yourself!"
