The entrance to the Refuge is on the left after 6.2 miles. Closed two weeks in fall and winter for deer hunting. Barbour Landing is open 4 a.m. to midnight, seven days a week. Facilities Temporary, wheelchair-accessible restrooms at entrance. Two piers at entrance.
Nothing is terribly close, but that's the idea.
Besides the McDonald's back at I-95 Exit 67, you might want to check out local haunts with more character at Shellman Bluff, itself deserving of more ink than space permits. To reach Shellman Bluff from Harris Neck, head back towards Hwy. 17, turn left on Young Man Road, turn left on Shellman Bluff Road, and right at the fork in the road. There are also three small marinas with ice, drinks, and snacks in Shellman Bluff. This is the country, and plastic is not always an option.
