This is a private fishing and hunting club on an oxbow of the Altamaha River known as Hughes Old River. I’m grateful to the caretaker for allowing me permission to photograph here.

Thomas Lee Howard jr, my uncle, lived in the 1850ish home at 1042 Jones Creek Loop Rd. His sister, Margie, owned Hughes Old River at one time. I spent hundreds of hours fishing with there in my youth. Incredible place now ruined because I see that outboards are allowed. We paddled and loved it.

Do y’all still rent cabins or have year memberships? My husband and his dad used to be members and I would love to set up a weekend for them for Fathers Day. Do you have someone I could call perhaps to set this up?
