The Little Satilla River (formerly the St. Illa River)[1] is a 22.6-mile-long (36.4 km)[2] tidal river that forms the boundary between Glynn and Camden counties in the U.S. state of Georgia. It is a separate river from the Little Satilla River, 20 miles (32 km) to the northwest, which is a freshwater tributary of the Satilla River.[3][4]
The Rural Felicity Plantation formerly stood near the southern banks of the river.[5]
