The Ralph E. Simmons Memorial State Forest (formerly the St. Mary's State Forest) is in the U.S. state of Florida. The 3,638-acre (15 km2) forest is located in northeastern Florida, near Hilliard, although it is closer to Boulogne. The forest was renamed in 1996 for Ralph E. Simmons, a former member of the St. Johns River Water Management District Governing Board.

Access to the forest is available from Lake Hampton Road, the northernmost west to east paved road in Nassau County.
