Directions to St. George from Atlanta
Take I 20 14.8 miles and get onto South Bypass 285 (Exit 67A).
Go 14.9 miles and take exit 61 South to Columbus (This will be I85).
Take Interstate 85 49.8 miles to 185 (exit 21 to Columbus).
Go 46.8 miles to Exit 1A( Cussetta Exit).
Go East on S27 11.7 miles to S27 (Cussetta).
Turn right towards Westville.
Stay on 27 for 109.8 miles to Bainbridge.
When you cross over the Flint River, you will get off on exit 97 connector.
At the end of this exit ramp (you will see a park across the street) turn left going south.
Go 1.5 miles you will yield and get on 97 going south for 9.1 miles.
Bear left on Ga. 302 (Fl. 267) and go 13 miles.
You will then turn right onto 90 in Quincy and go 4 miles.
Bear left onto Hwy. 12 at the Gas Station and go 1.6 miles.
Make sure that you fill up with gas in Quincy – you are fixing to go into a National Forest and drive with nothing around you!!!!
Turn left on Hwy. 65 and go 71.5 miles.
The road dead ends into the bay. (You can see St. George Island across the bay!!!!
Turn right and go 3.7 miles.
You will take Island Drive on your left.
This bridge leads you onto the Island.
Once on the island you will go to the last stop sign and turn left and go 1.2 miles. Coppertone House will be on the right!!!!! Copper Roof!
Going Hints:
*Eat in Columbus or you will have to wait to you get to a Hardee’s (not very clean and bathrooms are terrible) in Colquitt or you can get something in Quincy.
*Also, the Chevron station on the left side of town, after you pass Hardees, in Colquitt has a clean bathroom. I like to get gas here.
*Not a lot of gas places on 27 or 65 so be aware of this!!!!
*65 is long, dark and has animals running out in the road!!
*65 comes to a end without you realizing it so watch your mileage or the bay will be there fast!!!!
Coming home some hints:
*When getting onto 27 from 97, you will pass the park on your left, go under the bridge and you will have a place that you can turn left to get on the entrance of 27.
*This entrance onto 27 dumps you into traffic immediately ~ BE CAREFFUL!
*When you take 285, take 285 east back to Macon. This will be the far right lane.
