Dungeness Ruins
Remains of a 59-room Queen Anne–style mansion rebuilt in 1886 with a cottage from 1803.
Amazing place but I would highly recommend bringing bikes as the distance between places could be long and you will not have enough time to see everything before the ferry is ready to take you back. You'have to pay an extra $10 to bring your bike which I think is a rip off, but due to the long distances, it is worth it
Highly recommended. The island does not have stores or access to water or food. If you go to the island read about going first! This place is beautiful and has wild horses. You can catch the fairy to the island from downtown St. Marys. Watch out for snakes!
I backpacked and camped on Cumberland Island in 1986. It was spectacular because there were no loud people. I watched the wild horses grazing amongst the ruins. There were armadillos at night and alligators. Also enjoyed seeing manatees …
These are interesting ruins. Best seen with a guide who can explain all the history and the Carnagy family. Be sure to check out the beach here on the Atlantic side. Likely to see the wild horses in the grassy areas around the ruins.
Super cool stop. National Park has a great audio tour. Lots of history to explore. A great place for a lunch picnic.
