Redlands is a boat ramp access point on the Oconee River near Wrayswood in Greene County, Georgia. The Oconee River is a large river system classified as a seventh-order stream with a substantial drainage area of 5,275 square miles. At this location, the river has an average flow of approximately 5,146 cubic feet per second with an average velocity of 2.91 feet per second, indicating moderate current conditions typical of a large river environment.
The access site provides entry to a 220-mile stretch of river with significant elevation change, dropping 435 feet over its course. The average gradient of 2 feet per mile suggests a river with moderate flow characteristics suitable for various types of boating. Paddlers and boaters should be aware that this is a large river system with consistent water movement, and conditions can vary based on seasonal water levels and upstream dam operations.
Users should come prepared for river conditions with appropriate safety equipment and skill levels suitable for moving water. The site's proximity to the main channel of this major river system makes it a viable access point for multiple types of watercraft, from paddled vessels to motorboats, though individual skill and experience should match the river's dynamic conditions.
