River Trip Day 5 Satsuma/Welaka to Palatka


River Rat docked at Murphy Creek, an incredibly beautiful primitive campground run by the St. Johns River Water Management District. The site features a handful of campsites situated around fire pits. We stopped for a short hike on our way to Palatka and plan to stop for the night on our way home. During our stop, we had the place to ourselves. There is no cost to stay at the campsites and the sites may be occupied for up to a week. Facilities are limited: no potable water and only compost toilets. Still, the beauty of this place makes it a must-see.
