The Retreat at Hird Island

A Georgia Low-country Adventure Basecamp Joint Lease opportunity with an estimated 20 members

Just north of Georgia’s exclusive Golden Isles lies a stretch of coastal wetlands and barrier islands free from development. Envisioned to be an all-inclusive, enchanting basecamp for guided or unguided coastal adventures, the Hird Island Basecamp is for those who yearn to get out and really experience what our Georgia low-country and protected barrier islands have to offer.

Reachable only by boat, Hird Island Basecamp is a 6 mile boat ride from Blue-N-Haul Marina in Darien, GA. If it’s low-tide, you can stop and pick your own oysters on the way out. The winding tidal creeks keep the sea quiet. Even on windy days, it’s a smooth trip.

Hird Island is a 200 acre barrier island with about 20 creekfront houses. The vast majority of the island is old and new growth live oaks and coastal pines draped in Spanish Moss.

The Hird Island Basecamp is at the south end of the island shown here with the red outline.

The 100% undeveloped beaches of Sapelo, Blackbeard and Little St. Simons Island are a short boat ride pr a hardcore paddle.

Hird Island Basecamp sits on 4.4 acres. There is an existing 2-story, deepwater, dock in need of some very minor repairs as well as the beautiful, 1,360 sq. ft. old growth cedar cabin with a wrap around porch.

The wrap-around porch is utter relaxation night or day, rain or shine.

Also on the property is an open sided barn shown in this picture.

All of the old growth cedar was milled just for the lodge and there is a lot left, appropriately stacked in the barn.

Great old red tractor, golf cart, flatbed truck included and will run with little repairs.

2500 ft. public grass airstrip at the north end of Hird Island.

Grab your own seafood… fish, shrimp & oysters are what’s for dinner.
