Dames Ferry State Park Campground

Got a last minute site next to the water. The peninsula we were on was tight turnaround for any big rig. Bathhouse was nice!

Been here 3 times so far. Small. Beautiful campground.

We were really just looking for a quick get away….and have never been here before; but, it’s pretty awesome! Clean. Beautiful. Quiet. Great site!

A nit, but you know it going in if you use Dyrt, but no full hookups. However, proper planning results in long water views, clean, mostly level sites. Site 25 is ~-2 degrees to rear from Level. Friendly staff with clean dispersed sites. Great views!!!

It’s a very small campground. Wasn’t that fun.

Recommended by our HVAC technician (fellow camper). Some really nice lake sites. Lake was great for a swim. Sites very well kept. Water seemed to have a very slightly brownish tint even after the new filter??? Bathrooms were dated, but clean. Great laundry, but expensive at $2 per load for wash or dry and would only take quarters. We liked this Dames Ferry park the best out of the three, Dames, Indian Springs and High Falls.

This was my first time camping as an adult with my 8 year old child. We LOVED it here. There is a playground and super clean bathrooms and a laundry area. I am pretty sure you can access the lake at almost every site. We stayed at site 25 and it was perfect for us as tent campers. (I had to go buy tent stakes because of gravel but that's my fault I had no idea about needing different stakes for different grounds sorry newbie issue) The lake is GORGEOUS and super clear. I could stay at any site and probably would be perfectly happy. Its such a gem!

We were not expecting the water to be so clear and blue! We stayed in site 16 just feet from the water. The park is small and well maintained. There Is a 25hp restriction on the lake so no loud motorboats, making it very peaceful for campers. We kayaked and chilled at our site by the water for 5 nights. A true r&r get away. We had full connectivity using Verizon and cable is provided for tv. Hopefully the paddle boats and kayaks they provide will be available now that covid restrictions are looser. There is some road noise and some sites that are closer to highway 23 we’re very loud. I would have been extremely disappointed if I were in those sites. We would definitely return to site 16.

We had camp site 19 and the views we amazing of the lake. Waking up opening the blinds to see the lake and ducks swimming around we’re just what we were looking for. It’s a bit of a hill to the lake but worth it. The showers were private and very clean, but the dump station DOES NOT empty your tanks because of the angle you have to stop at. Other than that, it was amazing!!!!

Be back to review

This is a great small campground. We stayed here one night as a half way point. Site #9. I loved our site. Great view of water. This camp is right on lake. Most sites are waterfront. Site #9 had no shade but it was spring time so not bad. The wind was pretty strong coming off the lake that we didn't put out our awning or get to have a fire. many pull through sites, bathhouse was clean. Well kept camp. Lake was busy with kayakers and boaters. There is a day use area with boat ramp. Not much around area but could spend a few days here on water or fishing.

Beautiful park, close to the road, but private enough to relax. Drop your kayak in from a waterfront site an enjoy Lake Juliette, popular for Bass fishing. Or set your hammocks up and enjoy the breeze and view of the trees. We paid for a premium site and had more area than others, totally worth it. If you have a buddy, it has a site next to it that you can enjoy time with. The only downfall is there isn't much more than a lake and campground. You can drive to High Falls (and you should) for a wonderful hike.

It’s beautiful, quiet, and right on the water. Good restroom facilities and cute playground with covered pavilion. Good cell phone reception.

I’m relatively new to camping life. But I know what I like. Quiet. Room to breathe. Nice view. Water or mountains...preferably both. Inexpensive or free.

Well taken care of plot, Great Lake to fish on. Peaceful weekdays, busy weekends. But over all good place for the family.

Site 25 not quite level but great view of Lake Juliette. One nice clean restroom for 30 sites. Only con, wish there were hiking trails.

Beautiful views, but many of the sites on the far loop are full sun. We stayed at site 26. The view was beautiful, the sun was pretty rough until it went down, that spot is particularly sunny. The road noice in the far loop is horrible, all night long!! I didn’t realize it was so close to the road! There are 18 wheelers for the nearby rock plant that run at all hours and they are loud!! Also there’s a train, not a once in a while train with horns, like all night long coming and going. This park has a magnificent lake and if you stay there stay close to the front of the park. I think this would have been a better option with the noise. If you and your kids are light sleepers, this might not be the location for you. The bathroom is also very far away from the far loop.

With under 30 RV spots with 30/50amp, and water hookups. This State Park Campground was awesome. 90% of the spots are right on the beautiful crystal clear lake. We launched our kayaks and swam from our sight so easy and convenient. Quite, relaxing and secluded the lake is situated with in the forest with no homes near or around the water we visited in the summer and can’t wait to go back in the fall when the leaves start to change. Clean and well maintained.

Camped by the lake and lot had plenty of room for multiple vehicles, Kayaks and great spot for fishing. Beware of the snakes!!!!

Great campground with ample size spaces. Electric and water only but peaceful and quiet. Definitely will return

First time nice and quiet. Well kept.

Campground on shores of Lake Juliette. Many of the sites are lake front. Quiet place. Great fishing.

This campground reopened in October 2018 as a Georgia State Park operated by High Falls State Park. The state has upgraded some of the sites. You can find them on the parks website as Dames Ferry State Park. It is on Lake Juliette and has a 25 hp limit on boat motors. Site specific reservations. No cabins or cottages.
