This dwelling also offers an outdoor fire pit with seating and a cozy chair swing all nestled in the live oak and old growth cedars.

A bit more before you go: Rum Runner's Cabin is located on Emma’s Driftwood Farm. Where the trees weep with Spanish moss and the twisting waterways sail you far away from the outside world. Our historic property and stunning views are the perfect place for your private events and getaways. Our three water-front dwellings right off the inter-coastal waterway sit on sixty-five acres of picturesque marshland brimming with aquatic life, soaring waterfowl, and local flora.
Emma’s Driftwood Farm is the ideal place to call home while enjoying all the fly-fishing and inshore fishing, birding, crabbing, and boating that the Georgia Coast has to offer. Traveling yachtsmen will love the access and use of 2 communal deep-water docks on the property.
