Cumberland Island National Seashore - M710 ICW It took us 2 visits to the Cumberland Island National Seashore park which encompasses Cumberland Island in Georgia, to fathom what an amazing place we had found - from the uniqueness of the ruins of the Carnegie mansion, complete with its recreational building, cemetery and decaying autos to the breath-taking beauty of the wild horses on the miles of sand, ocean beach. While hiking we encountered an armadillo and wild turkeys who were on the run like they knew Thanksgiving was near. The island houses a museum with items from the past that show the extreme wealth and opulence of the island's former residents - the Carnegie family. A sea-shuttle from St. Mary's Georgia brings campers, with their gear, to enjoy camp-sites on the island ($2.00 per night). The sites are surrounded by the beautiful moss-draped oak trees and ferns that cover the island. The unspoiled natural ocean beach edging the island is a nesting place for Loggerhead turtles. We were in awe of the natural beauty we encountered as we enjoyed this National Seashore park.
