Our land forms a peninsula, which is very private, secluded, and SAFE.

This was a nice, quiet camping spot right by the water, great for fishing! Just be aware that bottom fishing isn't ideal due to snags, and we didn't catch much. Paddleboarding isn't an option here, you'd need to drive elsewhere for that, but kayaking looks like a good choice! 🏕️🎣🛶 #Camping #Fishing #Kayaking

Beautiful, small and remote, directions easy to follow and welcoming host, James. Small town-Saluda Creek, with Food Lion Supermarket and other stores and car wash close by. The facilities (single stall toilet and shower in separate buildings) provided were exceptionally clean, charming and unique with air and heat. History given for some sites as to what was previously located there etc. Short walk to creek area. Price was excellent. Will definitely return!

Vic is a phenomenal host and we loved the occasional visits from Blue. We arrived Saturday afternoon and had our choice of tent sites located on the ponds. The property is beautiful and you can see the work and effort Vic has put into it to provide you with a great stay. The 11lb catfish was just icing on the cake.

We have been to Deerfield a few times now and we have always enjoyed our stay. Thomas is an excellent host and it is always nice to chat with him while we are there. The location cannot be beat, giant pond, great screened in game area/hangout area to cook in, eat in or just enjoy hanging out together. There is a outside bathroom which is great to have access to along with an outdoor shower. You have all the hookups for rving as well. You are in a beautiful area with open areas to spread out, let the kids run around, let your pets to stretch their legs. You are in the peaceful countryside where you can see all the stars put in a spectacular show, if there are no clouds. You will never want to leave! Thank you Thomas for sharing your beautiful property with us.

We loved camping here! We took our dog camping for the first time, and he was so sad to leave. He really enjoyed it and even learned to swim. We caught about seven fish in one day. Mr. Vic was very nice and helpful throughout our stay. There’s also a drive in movie theater about 20 minutes away that we definitely recommend.(the big mo) a fun thing to do while camping. We can’t wait to come back!

Absolutely incredible campground!! Location was epic—loved the privacy of the treehouse spot. Hosts were so incredible. Very helpful and went above and beyond to make sure the stay was wonderful. We were able to get the canoe through the woods and to the lake easily and docked it at their boat ramp when we came back in. Highly recommend and will be booking stays here until it’s not open anymore!

Where to go
Mistletoe State Park
This recreation area, which is home to Clarks Hill Lake, is known for its bass fishing. But that’s not all this park entails. In fact, Mistletoe State Park, about 45 minutes from downtown Augusta, offers sandy beaches, shady walking paths, and cool creeks. There are also a number of cabins, cottages, and RV sites for campers, as well as backcountry and group campsites. You can also take out boats or canoes (available to rent for overnight guests) on one of the region’s largest lakes.
Diamond Lakes Regional Park
Diamond Lakes is situated in Georgia’s Sand Hills region—a rolling, green landscape with forests and water features that are ripe for exploring. This park is a great jumping point to explore the region, with its tennis and basketball courts, fishing ponds, sand volleyball pit, picnic areas, community center, public library, and campsites. With no shortage of options for activity, Diamond Lakes is great for both day use and overnight camping.
Lake Olmstead
This lake is right in Augusta and offers both motorized and non-motorized boating. The lakefront is great for picnicking and enjoying the day, while a gazebo and walking track offer additional activity options. Another way to enjoy this lake is to kayak the Augusta canal, a trip with the Savannah River Rapids Park that takes you on a journey through the local areas and ends at Lake Olmstead.
When to go
Like other places in the southern United States, the best time to visit Georgia is in the spring and fall. During these times, the weather is cooler but still warm, so you can camp and enjoy water activities without the freezing temperatures of winter nights, nor the scorching hot days of summer.
Know before you go
- Check the prices for parking and day use at the parks you plan to visit.
- For kayaking, consider making a reservation with Savannah River Rapids in advance.
