Experience the hometown charm of Richmond Hill.

Far from the hustle and bustle, yet minutes from Savannah and I-95, Richmond Hill is the kind of place you’ll love calling home.

Like Savannah, Richmond Hill is rich in history, but here you’ll discover a more relaxing way of life. This secluded paradise feels like another world, yet it’s just 20 minutes south of Savannah and seconds from I-95. Just like Henry Ford and his wife Clara did in 1925, you’ll discover that it’s the perfect place to call home. Before his death, Henry Ford owned 85,000 acres of what was once old Southern rice plantations in the Richmond Hill area.

Enjoy local flavor – If you love fresh seafood and stunning sunsets, dine out at a rustic restaurant overlooking the Ogeechee River. Catch your own with a charter out of a nearby marina, or pick up some freshly caught shrimp at a local market. Richmond Hill also features quaint cafes, delis and restaurants specializing in Lowcountry cuisine.

Take a historic adventure – Stroll through history or enjoy a riverside picnic at Fort McAllister State Historic Park, site of the “End of Sherman’s March to the Sea.” Prior to Sherman’s victory in 1864, Union forces attacked the fort from the river (and failed) nine times.

Top 10 school system – Families with children will love Richmond Hill’s highly ranked schools. According to the Richmond Hill/Bryan County Chamber of Commerce, Bryan County schools are ranked in the top ten school systems statewide. Furthermore, student test scores are consistently higher than state averages, and many faculty members hold master’s or doctorate degrees.
