WELCOME TO GEORGIA FRESHWATER CAMPGROUNDS
Shhh! Best kept Camping secret in Georgia..
Along the Freshwater Coast of Lincoln County lies three secluded Campgrounds only the locals know about.
In Lincoln County Georgia are three distinctive campgrounds which offer the getaway we all deserve.
Clarks Hill – Strom Thurmond Lake is the Largest U.S. Army Corps of Engineers lake east of the Mississippi River.
Our campgrounds are unique…. You and your family can kick back, sleep late, enjoy some fishing, hot coffee in the morning while looking out over the lake, and conversations around the fire at night. No busy interstate noise, only the sound of crickets nearby. No bright lights, only the stars and moon, a whole lot of nature and beautiful Georgia pines & hardwoods to keep you cool during the summer time.
A lot of History is embedded in our county for those who love going back in time.
Come enjoy Georgia Freshwater Campgrounds and make lasting memories with your Family!
