Lifestyle

 

 


Independence Community is nestled within the treasure trove we know as the Georgia Coast.

Here, residents enjoy a serenely unique quality of life with pristine waterways, rich cultural and historical heritage, close proximity to Savannah, and numerous regional offerings. Beaches are within a 1 hour drive to Tybee Island in Savannah or Massengale Park on Saint Simons Island. Excellent shopping within a 1 hour drive to Savannah and Brunswick and drive an additional 1/2 an hour further to Jacksonville to visit St. Johns Towne Center, Jacksonville Zoo and a host of a variety of beaches and restaurants.

  Take a carriage ride through Historical Savannah, browse unique shops and enjoy fine dining at The Lady and Sons owned and operated by the famous Paula Deen. Savannah has hosted many movies, music videos, and is the home of many celebrities who have visited Savannah and chose to purchase seasonal homes. Savannah is also the birthplace of The Girl Scouts and you can tour the Juliet Gordon Low house among many others. 

Our sister development, The Peninsula at Golden Isles located in Glynn County, Georgia offers coastal deep water access via the Little Satilla River and Laurel Grove Creek and affords a natural eco friendly environment as seen here with these two young kayakers enjoying a day on the Lagoon.
