Duckett Mill

Couldn’t give it five stars because of the wonky dump station set up and the tiny, old playground. 

Great waterfront site! Lots of details and photos linked here. https://imaginecamper.com/2019/09/26/duckett-mill-campground-73/

Great waterfront sites

What a beautiful site!   Nice and shady.  Near the water, but higher up and hard to walk down.  Went down to fishing area.   Kinda hilly and turns.  

Lovely!

Had a great time here for a weekend. Very quiet area. Most of the sites are up a steep bank from the water, so it’s a bit tricky to get a kayak in the water from camp, but it is doable. 

Beautiful lakefront park

Duckett Mill is very clean and beautiful. See RV Camping Journal for more details. 

Duckett Mill COE 

But not that close. Literally its on the lake, but there's not a lot of beach access, for those who want to spend a lot of time swimming. 
Also, we were right on top of our neighbor, and it didn't really show that on the website. It appeared more spaced out. But it was nice and we had a good time

Close to the lake

Clean, private, easy access to water nice place to camp

Ga Camping 

Easy to get too. Great location on Lake Lanier. The sites are very large and trees between most sites. Lots of water view sites, some have easier lake access from your site than others for our kayaks. Has boat launch, huge beach area, older bathroom facilities but very clean. Did not try showers. I believe they have laundry at some of them. The walk in tent sites were very large and easy to walk to, all with lake views.The campground was very clean and  checking process was smooth. We were able to get in before 3pm because our site was vacant. Picnic tables are a little ruff but very functional. Fire pits are great and drain well. We had thunderstorm each evening. 🤪 had places for our golden retrievers to access water easily for swimming. We are enjoying the COE (core of engineer campgrounds). We enjoyed our site 19 and look forward to another visit. 

Great views and large sites

Site is very spacious. Beautiful site and location. Would love to go back. 

Beautiful site

Wonderful time here.  Beautiful campground.   Sites are spacious and plenty of room for a car.  Water and 50 amp, picnic table, trees!   

Calming and energizing !

Very relaxing Campground with spacious sites right on the water. Clean bathrooms and bathhouse. Pet friendly.

Relaxing Campground on Lake Lanier

Campground with beautiful lake views and beach. Site 6 was inundated with big carpenter ants that bite! Sites are level with a nice little distance between. The unkept bathrooms weren’t clean, stall locks were inoperable, showers broken with clogged drains. Only three restroom buildings for a campground with 100+ sites.
