4. Overlook at Seven Islands

18mi from Locust Grove · 3 sites · Tents, RVs · Monticello, GA

We live on site on 17 acres that is surrounded by large tracts of undeveloped land with the Oconee National Forest within 1/4 mile and the Ocmulgee river within 1 mile. The name Seven Islands comes from the rich history of this area and the nearby trading site between Native Americans and settlers in the 1800s on the seven islands of the Ocmulgee River. For Equestrian campers, we have an electric hook-up near the house and a round-pen size paddock for horses (or can make panels into stalls) +$7/horse/night. (Note: We reserve the right to refuse lodging to horses with runny noses/runny eyes or otherwise sick). *Cabin being remodeled. To be open some time in 2025* We are happy to ride with you when available if desired - or we recommend using the Outdoor Active or Gaia app. Our tent camping area is a peaceful, shady area overlooking meandering Kinnard Creek. The dirt road is within view, but it is a country road rarely travelled by anyone other than kayakers and other recreationists. You may hear the friendly nicker or see our 3 horses coming to check you out, but their pasture area does not intrude on the camping area. Hike or ride your horses on the nearby trails. The Fried Green Tomatoes cafe and Sac-O-Suds (famous from the movie "My Cousin Vinny") [Edit: Sac-O-Suds store is currently closed. But still a scenic drive-by] are an easy drive as well as Covington GA where you can see The Vampire Diary clock tower (or take a tour of other filming locations). There are many quaint shops in town, a 10 minute drive, or in nearby Madison GA. This is a great country getaway to reconnect with nature and peace. We are just far enough away not to be intrusive, but near enough if you need assistance.

6 nights at Sun Valley Horse & Hiking Camp!

This was such a fun place to stay! The weather wasn't the best the week I was there, rainy and cold. But nevertheless the experience of staying at a working stable was fun. Every morning the horses get fed, then let out of their stables into the fields. And every evening they get brought back in. I stayed around the back of the main stable next to the juvenile pen. They have 2 youngsters who I ended up making friends with. If you can't tell I'm not a horse person. But being able to stay at Sun Valley, I'm learning to love them! Definitely worth the stay. Note: you're staying amongst the stables, so expect flies and smells. Enjoy the atmosphere! It's all part of the experience!

Beautiful farm atmosphere complete with Wade and his sis Willow, farm dogs! Beautiful horses and a super quiet setting. Ocassional trains not as close as some RV parks. Rear hookups may require long hookups. Our Grand daughters really enjoyed the fall festival too. Water pressure may dip when filling horse troughs.

Liberty Stables is amazing! We felt very safe there and also very relaxed being surrounded by the animals. Lots of sweet horses and ponies, goats, pig, chicken. The bathroom was exceptionally clean and very well equipped. Good thing is that there is light through most of the path to go to the bathroom during the night. We will surely come back!

Enjoyed our quiet time at Liberty Stables. Waking up to the sunrise, drinking morning coffee and the goats talking to me while reading, can't beat that. The lot was great and everything was as advertised. The nights were very quiet. Kathleen was a great host and quick to respond. A big thank you to Liberty Stables for a great stay.

Nice private farm with full hookups. It was a great experience for our weekend stay for a local baseball tournament. The hosts were very accommodating and ensured our stay was pleasant. The kids loved running around the farm and seeing the different animals. Two large working dogs were very friendly and again the kids loved having them around. It is an ideal set up for those hauling horses to and from the stables, but also a unique little camping get away for those passing through or in the area for the weekend.
