Anglers, this one goes out to you. The Dodge County Public Fishing Area is the place to go for some fantastic fishing. You’ll be able to enjoy 444 acres in Georgia’s middle coastal plain, but you’ll likely want to head right over to the 104-acre Steve Bell Lake. The lake is managed specifically for fishing, and it shows. You’ll find coves, points, shallow creek channels, a small island, and even submerged structures that are all designed to give fish that “come hither” vibe. And, to top it all off, the entire area simply oozes peace and tranquility. There’s even primitive camping if you want to hunker down and stay for a bit.

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 🙏🙏

I loved tent camping here! Me, a buddy, and my doggo camped under the trees here for 2 nights. The place is great and well taken care of and the host Lorine was a dream Super Host! She let us use her spring water to top off our containers, sprayed the grounds with anti-bug spray, and checked on us occasionally to make sure we needed anything while also giving us a tour of her grounds! Loved sharing stories with you Lorine! Will definitely be back here again.

I think the yurt was absolutely great for a glamping trip. It had all the amenities you could want and even extra. I will say that it was a little difficult to get to but Kim's instructions work extremely helpful. I do suggest that you use a truck or a Jeep not that a car can't get down there but it's just easier. I think it would be really even much better once some of the debris from all the flooding and hurricanes is taking care of so that you can enjoy kayaking down the river unblocked but there is much woods to explore and it's perfect getaway to be with nature.

Took advantage of the kayaking on Sunday such a wonderful peaceful float.

Definitely a little confusing at first but was told they were still recovering from the hurricane. Even if it was confusing, it was perfect. Good views, active fish, going out on the lake/pond. Definitely going to come back if I'm back in the area. Would mark the campsites if it was me. If they were marked it would definitely help others.

This was a great place to stop overnight. Lori was a great host, she even built a fire before I arrived and gave me a stack of firewood. My dog loved running around on the land, and there was plenty of privacy. 10000% recommend!!!
