Baker County, Florida
Baker County is a quiet corner of northeast Florida. It’s just west of Jacksonville, but feels a world away. Small towns and rural landscapes define the area.
The county’s heart is Macclenny, the largest town and county seat. Folks here enjoy a slower pace of life. Outdoor activities are big, with the Osceola National Forest nearby. Hunting, fishing, and camping are popular pastimes.
The St. Mary’s River forms part of the county’s northern border with Georgia. Local history runs deep, with roots in logging and agriculture. Community events bring people together throughout the year.
