Bannockburn is an unincorporated community in Berrien County, Georgia, United States.[1]

The former Central of Georgia Railway ran through the settlement.

The Riverside Hotel in Bannockburn was built around 1905. At the same time, the Massey Felton Lumber Company operated a sawmill on the west side of the Alapaha River, about 1 mi (1.6 km) east of Bannockburn. The mill closed about 1910.[2]
