This is one of two South Georgia farms with a large pond on each. Camping is available near the road and on the back side of the property, well away from everything. Back side camping is walk-in. Pond-side camping will be mowed if you let us know a day or so ahead of time. Property on the back side is not mowed but has roads and firebreaks.
The property is managed for timber and row crops. During hunting season, the family may show up to hunt deer.
Fishing welcome in the pond. Double digit bass, 2 pound bream possible. Boat available, $20 a day. Life jackets required, $5 per jacket rental. Missing jacket or boat, we bill you $500. Please release carp as unharmed as possible. Other fish you can keep or release.
**DO NOT HARM THE OAK TREE NEXT TO THE POND. **If you need firewood, go around the pond into the woods and pick up any limbs you see. If you choose to go in the woods in deer season, please check at house first to see if anyone is in a stand and where.
This is a working farm. You may and hear see tractors, trailers, workers and irrigation systems. The irrigation sounds are actually soothing at night. Do not take any produce from the fields without permission. Check at the house first.
This location is 45 minutes or less away from attractions like

ScoutTent camping was really more of a job than a vacation night and bathrooms were nasty

We really enjoyed our stay at Georgia Veterans Memorial SP. we stayed in site 72 on Camping area #3. It faced the woods with a walking path. It was very private with the exception of the occasional hiker. So it was very nice to feel so secluded.

Street lights, and some grill I place. At end of the road.

Really liked this campground, I would return. Nice walking trails And you can also kayak down the river. Bathrooms are clean and kept up. I stayed in site 9 - it was a pull thru and very shady with a nice area in the back. Would choose that site again. Did put up the screen over the table as the gnats are fierce. Mosquitoes were there but not that bad
Traveler
Stayed here overnight while returning from South Georgia. Was only camper that night, perhaps 10-12 other groups making use of lake/fishing vicinity further into the park -- all of whom exited the park at dark. There is a really nice covered pavilion overlooking the lake if you get rained out (4 picnic tables.) Bathrooms with flush toilets and hot water available 200 yards away from pavilion. Park is split in two sections. The upper section (when you first drive in) is where the camping spots are. The lower section has 3-4 small lakes popular with fishing. T-mobile showed 2 bars 5G allowing you to grab a 1 day fishing pass ($8) to satisfy permit.

Chris was very welcoming when we arrived. Got a beautiful ahaded spot in an end and right across from the site.as a beautiful field our dog, Blaze, really enjoyed. The pool was open and already in use. Wevwill be back again.
RangerSpot #30 has a Water view and is less expensive than a site on the water. So if you bring a boat you can pull it up on shore by your site. Very nice camp ground, park, marina, golf and military museum. #30 is a long pull thru site with water and electric. Well worth the visit.
GuideBeautiful peaceful and quiet.
ScoutMy family and I stayed here our first night with a camper without any camping experience. The facilities were great and hooking up was a breeze! I will be going back for a more extended stay but we just wanted to spend a night away with our new camper for this one.
ScoutWe camped here over thanksgiving weekend and were the only ones camping. A few people here and there to visit during the day/evenining but we were the only ones overnight. Very remote and quiet. As others have said, no water or bathrooms. We did have two trucks come unload their loud boats at the ramp around 3:30-4am which was annoying but that’s the risk you take.
GuideVery nice spot. No toilets or drinking water available. There is a trash barrel by the picnic pavilion, but I think the expectation is to pack out trash. You just can’t beat the location though. Right on the water with a great view.

This RV Park is clean, friendly and has Full Water and Sewer Hookups. It's off Highway 341 which connects Coastal and Middle Georgia.
Guide
Clean and Shady camping space with newer, clean showers and restrooms.
The park has many amenities just a short walk away. Nearby golf course seems to be appreciated by several campers. Take a walk down to the dam and read about the construction of the park and the lake, by the CCC, in the 1930's
As of September 2023 the construction on the Cottages continues, so there is some noise during the day. But considering we were the closest to it, it was not bad.
TravelerWe stopped here on our way south to Florida out of curiosity. Earlier in the year, we had been in Cordele to ride the SAM Railway which was based next to the park and had decided to stop on our way back through and check out the campground. The GVSP is well maintained with alot of open space, lake access and a historical museum honoring Georgia Veterans. The camping area is spacious with back in and pull through sites. The roadways were narrow and paved with the sites being gravel and level in most cases. Sites along the lakefront are a bit more expensive but the lake can be viewed from any site. Shower houses are cleaned daily by camp hosts and are well maintained. We were advised by another camper that sites fill up quickly on weekends but are usually available during the week. We only spent 2 nights (on a whim) but will return for a longer stay in the future. A great area for biking, fishing and boating.
TravelerGreat place to camp for a night or multiple nights! It is free and there are already some fire pits set up. It's close by the river so it has the potential to flood and cops come by to check up on the spot occasionally.

Excellent site and park! They have mini golf, swimming g, boating, biking and hiking! So much to do. Extremely clean rest rooms, showers, and laundry.

GuideWe stayed here a whole week while ducking out of some weather. This one is especially nice if you like some room! We enjoyed a fire two nights and many walks on the nature trail which is part of the property.

It was tough to find at first! You need to go I to what you think is the dam area and then campsite entrance is on the left when you are almost at the dam gateway. 10 sites with water but no electric or sewer. Very quiet right on the river. The dam makes a great white noise for sleeping! I kept thinking I had left a fan on the 1st night, lol! Just two of us here though it is weeknights. Bathroom and showers are across picnic area and up some stairs...always closed when I tried them.

Our RV GPS and WAZE took us right to the campground(CG). There’s plenty of space to park in front of the clubhouse where you check-in. We were then escorted to pull through site 6 with FHUs for our six-day stay. Our daily fee of$46 consisted of discounts from Passport America at 50% off for 3 days and then a 10% Good Sam discount. The CG had a mixture of permanent, seasonal, transient, and short-termers like us. We stayed here last year at about the same time in early January and really enjoyed ourselves, so we decided to stay longer. Water pressure is around 60 psi here, and we got quite a few OTA channels. There are a few trees in the CG, but we were able to get a good shot for our Starlink. The CG WiFi was okay but glad we had our Starlink. We got two bars on Verizon. The sites are adequately spaced with 6 being one of the better sites. The sites are gravel with a picnic table, standup bbq(in most sites, including ours), and a fire pit. We did not have a fire pit, but we could have fetched one out of an empty site. There’s a pool and laundry attached to the clubhouse. This is a no-frills campground, but there are plans to take out the driving range and put in upgraded RV sites. The clubhouse’s Fire Ant Grill has decent food. We tried their basic cheeseburger and the green olive sauce burger that is based on an old Michigan A&W Root Beer recipe. Both were delicious. Groceries at Dollar General are cheaper than Piggly Wiggly. Katz Veterinary is a good place for basic vet needs. We enjoyed our stay and had fun playing their 9-hole course.
LegendWe stayed here for just 1 night on the way back to Tennessee. Half of the campground was closed due to renovation. The other sites are almost all pull through sites, which is very nice of you have a bigger camper. Each site had a picnic table, firepit, water and electricity. The bathhouse and showers were very clean. Unfortunately we had no time to do any of the activities like hiking or kayaking. The lake looks very inviting for fishing or boating. We also saw several Gopher tortoise dens but unfortunately no tortoise. We would love to stop again and explore the park.
RangerStayed for one night and would have enjoyed several more. Good sized sites, nice trails and live oaks, a playground. Add 5 bucks to the cost of booking, because there is a 5 dollar park fee. Still reasonable, cheap actually for what you get. 8 to 10 minutes off of 75, but worth it for the quiet and beauty compared to roadside stops.
Traveler
We got in after office closed. They called us to give us info for our arrival, even offering an bigger camp site due to our trailer size. Upon arrival the dam host Martha advised us to take shelter in a cinder block building due to tornado warnings. Everyone very accommodating & helpful!

Ashley here from The Dyrt! It was great to add this working farm with tent sites. From this property, you can day trip to The Little Grand Canyon, the Okefenokee, Tallahassee, FL, Westville, Macon. Give them a try and leave some reviews!

This KOA is just off of i75, super convenient for an overnight stop (which was what we did). Our boys loved the early 80s Era playground, but unfortunately it wasn't kept up well and was frankly dangerous- the large swingset wasn't anchored to the ground, the fence was partially torn down near the roadway, and there was rust on the equipment. They didn't kbiw the difference and played on it for an hour having lots of fun, but it is an accident waiting to happen. The woman who we dealt with at check in was awesome- super nice and friendly, and gave me a teacher discount. Our site was a nice large pull through with a picnic table and fire ring. Setup wasn't difficult. There was some wet dirt, could probably use some gravel. The campground looked to be in a retired pecan Grove. Not a ton of privacy but large sites and nice trees. While you can hear the highway, this one is not immediately adjacent but one property away, so it isn't bad. The property between the campground and the highway is a large abandoned building.. slightly shady but not a problem. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
