We will be paddling an approximately eight mile stretch of Turkey Creek through Sumter National Forest from County Highway S-19-68 / S-35-227 (Key Bridge) to the take out at State Highway 23 West. The nearest town to the take out is Modoc which is a few miles west. This trip is suitable for open canoes, whitewater and plastic sea kayaks. There are a few small class I shoals.
