Now you can claim your own piece of this paradise with Little Raccoon Key, a unique 40-acre private island sanctuary that remains untouched by the usual hustle and bustle of the modern world. A mere ten-minute boat ride from neighboring Jekyll Island, Little Raccoon Key offers a sense of seclusion without complete isolation. Rich in marine, land, and bird wildlife, the island is perfect for those with a passion for the outdoors, offering an abundance of alfresco activities like fishing, bird watching, shelling, and paddle boarding.
The Timucua and Guale peoples were indigenous to this area, and it's believed that they inhabited Little Raccoon Key prior to the 1600s. These natives were skilled fishermen, and they harvested alligators, oysters, clams, and fish from the waters around the island. After the middle of the 17th century, the native tribes began to fade from the area as French, Spanish, and English explorations continued up and down what's now the Georgia coast. Centuries later, Little Raccoon Key has been kept unspoiled in hopes of preserving the same natural beauty that was enjoyed by the Timucua tribe so many years ago.
In recent years, Little Raccoon Key has been named by the luxury travel world as one of the country's best glamping destinations, appearing in outlets like Travel + Leisure, Oprah Daily, and Forbes. Glamping has allowed the current owners to share the natural beauty of the island while focusing on the ongoing conservation of the wildlife and plant species found here.
