George L. Smith State Park Campground is a beautiful example of the diversity that camping in Georgia offers. You can choose between lakeside camping perched right on the water’s edge, or enjoy the natural beauty of being nestled in a cozy cottage in the woods. Hop into a kayak or canoe and explore the thick stands of cypress and tupelo trees draped with Spanish moss. The park has boats available for rental, or if you'd prefer to remain on land, seven miles of trail await those seeking a stroll littered with natural wildlife sightings. This secluded park is the perfect south Georgia retreat.

Bliss Hills Farm

39mi from George L. Smith State Park Campground · 8 sites · RVs · Claxton, GA

Our beautiful unique property has been in the family for 3 generations. Over the years, our family, plus artists, musicians, & writers have come here to refresh and get inspiration from nature. But with Hipcamp, we've opened up for others to enjoy. We limit the number of guests staying here to no more than 10, but the daily average is only 4. We have walking trails, a pond where you can kayak, relax on the dock, or feed the huge fish (sorry no fishing allowed.) Also, on our property, there are swings, a tree house deck, obstacle course, fire pit area, wooden bridge, picnic table, and abundant bird life. There's also plenty of wide-open space where you can play frisbee, run, do yoga, and stargaze at night. There's plenty to do in this area, using the farm as your base. Claxton, our hometown, is a great friendly, small-town with grocery and hardware stores and restaurants. Many guests like to side-trip over to the towns of Statesboro, Metter, Vidalia, and Savannah, plus the Golden Isles.

The Neature Preserve

28mi from George L. Smith State Park Campground · 2 sites · Tents · Twin City, GA

The Neature Preserve (formerly known as "Tabby's Trees") consists of 74 acres made up mostly of pine forest situated in the coastal plain. A creek runs along the western boundary of the property with an ephemeral (seasonal) wetland to the southwest. The overstory of the forest is dominated by loblolly and slash pine with a few longleaf pine sprinkled in, as well as turkey oak, live oak, laurel oak, and sweetgum. We have ~1.5 miles of trails that wind through a variety of ecosystems (trails can hiked or biked). The property has three primitive camping sites. Two of the sites are for tent camping only (where you would park your car along the hiking trail and then follow a separate path to get to the campsite), with one site that has enough space to park multiple cars or small camper right at the campsite. The Neature Preserve is all about restoring native habitat! Prescribed fire is used at The Preserve to safely and efficiently restore and maintain productive ecosystems and to support our native plant and animal species. Info about prescribed fire as well as other restoration practices and projects going on at The Neature Preserve can be found below. View more photos and learn more about the wildlife and plants that inhabit The Preserve as well as the habitat management plan on the "The Neature Preserve" Facebook page. Prescribed Fire: - The interior of the South Loop was burned for the first time (in recent history) on February 14, 2024 and again on April 17, 2025. - The interior of the North Loop, along with the similarly sized unit just east of the North Loop, was last burned April 11, 2023 Timber Management: - Future plans include a timber thinning to reduce canopy density, clear cutting some sections to be replanted in longleaf pine. Wetland/Bog Restoration: - Currently in progress: 1) Canopy and midstory reduction (cut, pile, and burn) to support native, understory species 2) Planting rare species, such as pitcher plants, to help improve their population size and genetic diversity

Small campground, well spaced out. Watch out for gators. Have made tons of improvements to Park over last few years.
