REST and REFUEL with some outdoor therapy at our primitive glampsite. The peace and even healing that can occur from spending time in nature has hugely impacted our lives-- so much so that we wanted to create a space for others to enjoy as well. This cozy retreat is nestled into the woods overlooking our spring-fed pond on our 9.5 acre homestead. While the location is only minutes away from bike trails, walking paths by the river, and our local downtown restaurants/ shops, our unique space on our property makes you feel as though you have escaped into the mountains.

This Property was purchased by Grandfather in the 70s and then was passed to my Mother. In 2013 I decided to live life differently and start from the ground up building with natural materials and found materials. At that time I was fortunate enough to have the land passed to me and I started building a home for myself and to be close to my mothers home nearby. After achieving the basics I decided that the best use of this beautiful land was to create a place for people to relax and enjoy, a park like environment dedicated to preserving natural beauty and amplifying it through a permaculture lifestyle. 8 years later I am blown away at how far the dream has become a reality and love sharing my space with people from all over the country.

I hobbled into Sunny Day Adventures on an almost-flat tire on Christmas Eve, thinking I would have to wait until the day after Christmas to get it repaired and then continue on my journey. But, lo and behold, the host has a tire shop behind the house! Joe patched up the tire on Christmas morning and I was on my way. What a Christmas blessing!
Extremely kind hosts, sweet family and cute Airedale puppy.
The camping spot has a full hook-up behind a little building used as an Airbnb. It is on a rather busy road, but the noise was barely noticeable. It felt like a peaceful country setting, even though it's just a couple of minutes from the historic town of Abbeville.
I highly recommend Sunny Day Adventures!

James and Jessica are some of the BEST HOSTS WE HAVE MET OVER THE LAST 6 YEARS!!! Good ol southern hospitality has no limits at Fenn Farms. The property itself is beautiful and so, so peaceful. Our first night here our diesel pusher front tire was leaking air and James was so helpful!!! I absolutely love the creek that runs along the back of the property with all the mini falls and all the farm animals are right there just waiting for a visit! Added BONUS ...the stargazing is phenomenal!! Thank you to the both of you, we are so happy we crossed paths!!! IYou two have gone above and beyond! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. I hope you have a beautiful Christmas with your family and friends, we'll catch up soon!!!...Merry Christmas, Nicole & Chris

Super peaceful spot! The big open field was great for stargazing at night, and there was a set of trees near the pond that worked for my camping hammock. Loved seeing the ducks as I walked around the pond. This is a very well kept bit of land, and I felt like I had plenty of space to enjoy and it was nicely secluded. The most I heard was dogs barking in the distance and the ducks splashing a bit at night. I'll have to come back!

My husband and I lived stay at lizard sniffer! And we will definitely be back again. My favorite part was the fenced in area for our two dogs. This campsite was everything I wanted it to be.

Nice toilet and shower, very clean and host was kind! I was in park 4 which is same price as the other sites but was relatively smaller than the rest, but secluded more than the other spots if you want more privacy

Second time solo camping here at this quaint site. Beautiful area and the campsite is down a country road. Very peaceful for a great nights sleep. Chip was very accomodating and communicated well, even though he was out of town. I definetly recommend.

The setup was perfect. I was a little worried about making it down to the site with my travel trailer (27 ft) but it was doable. Plenty of space to spread out and had plenty of privacy. We would definitely stay again.

Overview
About
Perched on the western shore of Clarks Hill Lake, one of Georgia’s largest lakes, Elijah Clark State Park takes its name from Revolutionary War hero Elijah Clark. A history lesson is top of the agenda for park visitors, so follow in the footsteps of the pioneers at the Log Cabin Museum, before heading down to the sandy swimming beach to cool off with a swim. Getting on the water is also a must, whether you bring your own boat, rent a kayak or canoe, or go fishing and hiking around the lakeshore. Campers can choose between RV sites, hike-in tent sites, and cozy cottages.
Notable campgrounds
- Best for lake views: The main Elijah Clark State Campground has 172 tent, trailer, and RV sites with space for up to 40’ trailers and full hookups available.
- Best for hikers: The Walk-In Campground provides tent-only camping just off the trail, plus a bathhouse, picnic tables, and fire rings.
- Best for glampers: The 20 Lakeside Cottages sleep up to eight people and have air-conditioning, heating, and kitchenettes.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- You can reserve campsites and cottages at Elijah Clark State Park via the Reserve America website.
- Online reservations open up to 13 months in advance and can also be made for same-day arrivals.
- Campsites can book up fast for summer and holiday weekends, so book at least three months in advance.
When to go
The mercury soars in Georgia during the summer months, making it the perfect time to cool off at the lake in Elijah Clark State Park. Alternatively, come in autumn to admire the fall foliage and spot wildlife—this is the best time to see bald eagles, white-tail deer, and foxes. The park is busiest from April through November, but the campground stays open year-round.
