. It roughly follows an old Indian trading trail.
The southern terminus of SR 99 is at its junction with U.S. Route 82 / State Route 520 in southern Glynn County. The road follows a northerly route to its junction with State Route 32 just west of Sterling. SR 99 overlaps SR 32 for approximately 2 miles (3.2 km) to the junction with U.S. Route 341/U.S. Route 25/State Route 27 where SR 32 ends. SR 99 continues north through rural Glynn County to its junction with Interstate 95 at exit 42 and on to U.S. Route 17/State Route 25 in northern Glynn County. From there, SR 99 continues unsigned with US 17/SR 25 to Darien
in McIntosh County where SR 99 branches off to the east and forms a loop from Darien to Eulonia
through several neighborhoods, while closely following the gradient between the trees and marshes. In Eulonia, SR 99 once again intersects US 17/SR 25, where it continues west one more mile to its terminus at an interchange with Interstate 95 at exit 58. Continuing westward, the roadway becomes State Route 57, which continues west towards Townsend
