About this home

Picture this: a quiet run down the Wahoo River, not another boat in sight, and you pull right up onto your own beach. That's Wahoo Island, a rare private island in McIntosh County, Georgia, with deep-water frontage along its curved beach and no sign of civilization in any direction. For anyone who loves the water, the location is hard to beat. Wahoo Island sits on one of the fastest routes to offshore fishing anywhere on the Georgia coast. The beaches of St. Catherines Island and Blackbeard Island are about 5 minutes away by boat. Barbour River Yacht Club and the Harris Neck National Wildlife Refuge public ramp are about 15 minutes away. Boats of all sizes can make the trip at any tide; larger boats take a longer route at low tide, about 30 minutes. Power is already on the island. Beyond that, it's a clean slate: build your estate, raise a family compound, or keep it wild as your own private escape. There's even room to bring in a bush plane, float plane or helicopter. The island is currently in conservation use, which keeps property taxes nominal. On the mainland side, you're about 45 minutes from Brunswick, about 50 minutes from Savannah's airport and about 90 minutes from Jacksonville. Islands like this rarely come to market. Showings by boat. Buyer to verify acreage, zoning, permitting and all development potential with McIntosh County.
