Hostel in the ForestStarting at $25

The Hostel in the Forest has operated as an International Youth Hostel for 35 years. They are world renowned for their geodesic domes and 9 tree houses, which were built and have been sustained entirely by volunteers. Hundreds of loving hands have gone into making the Hostel what it is today.

The Hostel sits on 133 acres of forest and wetlands, 2 miles from Highway 95 in Brunswick, Georgia. It is located short distances from the famous “Golden Isles” of St. Simons Island and Jekyll Island.

At the Hostel, the Sweat Lodge tradition was started over 10 years ago by one of the staff, who was of Native American decent. It is now a rich tradition of the hostel, taking place almost every full moon and on other special occasions.

A vegetarian family style meal is prepared each evening by staff and guests. Food donations are accepted and they also offer a work exchange program.
