Torreya State Park. We found out that the park also has some backpacking campsites available. We haven't been backpacking yet, so we register for a site and get our gear together. There are two sites rather close (we don't have the daylight for a long hike in), Rock Bluff is overlooking the Apalachicola River and Rock Creek is on a small creek leading into the river. Both of these sites are not really "primitive" by our standards. Rock Bluff has a porta-potty near the camp sites and both have a huge cache of firewood cut and prepared by the forest service. We are not allowed to gather and burn downed wood here (understandable with rare endangered trees around), so we partake of the firewood and have a nice warm fire at Rock Creek campsite. Once again, we have the place to ourselves.
