3. Overlook at Seven Islands

31mi from Macon · 3 sites · Tents, RVs

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.

The campground offers beautiful views and walking/ biking trails around the campground. A 5 acre pond is stocked for campers to fish. We are small town happy and like to enjoy the simple things like watching striking sunsets over the fire, stargazing into the night, and listening to the hum of the quiet. Green Acres Farm is a local attraction that has Fall frenzy on the farm, strawberry picking in the spring, and a Christmas light display all of December! A locally owned restaurant makes one of the best burgers in Georgia along with the best fried chicken you will ever eat!

Jessica and Scott were amazing hosts. Lots of wildlife to see as well as chickens and some loving dogs. WiFi was very fast. They also had a nice bathroom with a hot shower. The city of Dublin was cute with lots of different restaurants.

Dwayne is a great host he went out of his way to make sure we got to our site even when we didn’t arrive until 9pm. We awoke in the morning to peaceful surroundings with goats , cows , horses and a few mules in the next field over along with the sounds of peacocks in the distance. Heavenly peace 🙏🙏

Overall a very nice RV park. Everything was just fine with the exception of the bathhouse. The showers have no shelf to put your soap/shampoo on and no place to sit to get dressed - only the commode, and the floors had not been swept in some time.

We only stayed for one night. Having full hookup was wonderful and check-in was a breeze. The owners were very kind with great communication and accommodations. The park was in great shape, spacious, and easy to get to. I recommend this park if you are in the area. We would stay here again if we find ourselves in the area. :)

Where to go

Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park

Explore the ancient landscapes of Ocmulgee Mounds National Historical Park, originally settled by Paleo-Indians over 12,000 years ago. Mississippian burial mounds, eight miles of wilderness trails, and Walnut Creek wetlands promise hiking adventures year-round. Ocmulgee Mounds also provide an exciting backdrop for annual events like September’s Ocmulgee Indigenous Celebration and the Lantern Light Tour held in spring. Nearby campgrounds and cabin rentals are available.

Lake Tobesofkee Recreation Area

Fish, swim, or boat at the Lake Tobesofkee Recreation Area, a popular Macon attraction for all ages. The park features family-friendly amenities like kids’ playgrounds and a popular disc golf course. Launch a boating excursion from Lake Tobesofkee’s 35 miles of shoreline, or camp year-round within its 1,800 acres of protected forests—many of the area’s campsites offer paved tracks for RVs, picnic pavilions, electric hookups, and bathhouses.

Amerson River Park

Camp near the high bluffs of Amerson River Park to enjoy pristine views of the river and its tree-lined banks, then head out to kayak, canoe, or float downriver. Seven miles of trails offer scenic views of the park's meadows, forests, and marshes, too. Although no camping is allowed within the park, there are plenty of campsites nearby for tenting or RVing, as well as rustic and fully furnished cabin rentals.

When to go

Macon offers fun year-round, with peak camping between April and October, when weather allows for a more diverse range of outdoor activities. Though some campgrounds shut down for winter, many remain open with basic amenities such as restrooms and water. It’s also possible to find cabin rentals and RV parks that offer year-round accommodations near Macon’s most popular recreation areas.
