I would love to see places like that. I'm not one of those spiritual hippies that say "nature calls out to me," but man, places like that seem like really nice areas to stay at for a while.
Those pics are of low country in SC...near Charleston, SC. Route 17 going between Georgetown, SC and Charleston, SC then up toward Myrtle Beach. Swamp areas...you can cross the marshes from I-26 to Isle of Palms, SC...all along the coast.
Also down around coast below Charleston, SC toward Kiawah Island there are rural areas like that. Those golf coastal clubs and housing has stripped a lot of that away. A lot of desolate areas like that not on beach too.
