Guild, TN · 23 sites · Tents, RVs, Lodging
Running Water Creek is a unique, fully off grid campground just 20 minutes to downtown Chattanooga. We have 80+ campsites spread out over 120 acres. Most of the roads are accessible in any small car, but some roads require 4x4 (they're marked with a sign). We have a bath house with toilets, showers, and sinks and even offer hot water! Our well and cabins are all solar-powered as we are not on the electric grid.
Some info about the property:
-we DO NOT have water or power hookups
-we have gravel roads with a 5 MPH speed limit on the property (if you drive too fast the roads will seem rough)
-we are right next to a highway and train tracks so there will be some noise (some days are better than others and we have no way of predicting how many trains will/will not go by)
-none of our campsites have picnic tables (please plan accordingly)
-most campsites have fire rings built, but if you choose a site without one you need to build your own

There's so much fun waiting for you to explore! Tubes are available for a $5 charge per day. If you're feeling extra adventurous, there are rope swings that let you swing over the river, and there are super cool places to splash around and swim, part of which, is in the Indian Fish Trap.
When your tummy starts rumbling, don't worry. We've got you covered with grills in the community area where you can cook delicious food. So you can have a tasty meal with the sound of the river flowing in the background. Also we are within 5-10 minutes to stores, restaurant , etc.
But wait, there's more excitement! If you're looking for an even bigger adventure, this is the perfect spot to begin an awesome kayaking trip if you brought your kayak. Castleberry Bridge is where people from all over the country come to experience going through the Miner's Tunnel.

So whether you want to float, swing, swim, or paddle, Castleberry Bridge is the place to be for all kinds of outdoor fun!

St George, GA · 10 sites · Tents, RVs
🌿 Welcome to Blackwater
Just 40 minutes outside Jacksonville, Blackwater is a secluded 10+ acre private riverfront property tucked along Georgia’s southernmost edge, right on the FL–GA line.
Set on a quiet bend of the St. Marys River and backed by 150+ acres of protected Florida preserve, this is real privacy, open space, natural beauty, and true “Old Florida” country vibes you won’t find in crowded camps.
🌊 The River Experience
Fed by the Okefenokee Swamp, the water carries natural tannins from peat, giving it that deep black look in the depths and a golden “sweet tea” color in the shallows.
✔️ Clean, refreshing water — ideal for swimming
✔️ Soft white sugar-sand bottom (no mud, no rocks)
✔️ No pollutants or runoff
✔️ Naturally filtered water with antibacterial properties
Swim between two states at once — the middle of the river is the state line!
🏝️ A Rare Natural Setting
Blackwater sits on Trail Ridge, a prehistoric coastal dune that once formed the edge of the Atlantic Ocean.
Today, that elevated sand ridge meets the river, creating a rare white sugar-sandbar beach, a natural feature you won’t find on most riverfront properties.
🏕️ Built for Groups & Private Gatherings
At the river’s edge sits a 70-ft covered riverfront pavilion, the heart of the experience and a true standout feature.
✔️ Power & water hookups
✔️ Shaded gathering space with river views
✔️ Room to cook, relax, and host
✔️ Custom Firepit, grills, fans, tables & chairs
This setup is ideal for:
• Private group camping
• Family reunions
• Birthdays & bachelor trips
• Weddings & full property buyouts
👉 Want the entire place to yourselves? Full-property bookings are available for complete privacy in a one-of-a-kind Southern country setting.

Although just a one-night stay, this was the perfect reset I needed. I booked space number five, which has a platform. Glad I did because the covering sheltered my tent from the rain. I think being elevated a little kept my tent base dry, too. (I did put a tarp down first and had my rain fly on.)
The campsites are nicely spaced for privacy. The bathhouse was very clean and the running, hot water was much appreciated.
I met some of the resident farm animals and they are so sweet.
At night, I listened to insects and birds and saw fireflies. My dog camped with me and he enjoyed the serenity of the visit.
I’ll definitely stay here again when I’m in the area.

Our first night there we got hit by a thunderstorm, but we made the best of it. Even as adults we played in the rain lol. The creek helped us sleep like a baby, and the river made for some good fishing. We plan on coming back multiple times throughout the summer with our kids!

This was my favorite campsite I’ve ever been to! George and Gini were very nice and accommodating. Our campsite was right on the river. It was a beautiful view. There was nobody else camping when we went, so we had the whole place to ourselves! Endless firewood was provided, the wood was already set up, and George gave us a torch to light it (because it was raining), firestarter, and lighter fluid. Trash cans were accessible everywhere and there were port a potties a little ways down. You can tube down the water for $10 and the water is extremely clean. There’s lot of fun little easter eggs you will spot as you explore the campground. The instructions are clear on how to get there.

I was visiting friends in town and actually left my camper for a couple of days and felt very safe doing so. While away, the host checked in with me asking if I needed anything. Very thoughtful. I would definitely stay again and would recommend to anyone considering. They also have fire pits setup and the space is pretty easy to navigate a trailer.

Where to go
Atlanta & North Georgia
The north Georgia mountains provide some of the state’s best camping and hiking terrain, including part of the Appalachian Trail. The vast Chattahoochee National Forest is dotted with historic sites and campgrounds, while cascading waterfalls, RV camping, and glampsites await at Amicalola Falls State Park. Canyon hikes and waterfalls are among the highlights at Tallulah Gorge State park and Cloudland Canyon State Park (the latter also has yurts for rent), and Red Top Mountain State Park lies less than an hour from the state capital, Atlanta.
Central Heartlands
Augusta, Athens, and Macon have a rich musical legacy—artists from James Brown to Otis Redding hail from these parts—plus some of Georgia’s best camping right on their doorstep. Head to Mistletoe State Park to hike, kayak, and fish on the shores of Clarkes Hill Lake; snag an RV campsite or cabin at George L. Smith State Park; or rent a cozy cottage at Indian Springs State Park.
South Georgia
Rolling farmlands form the backdrop for a road trip through South Georgia, perhaps checking into an RV park in one of the many small towns along the way. The region’s most impressive hiking trails are found in Providence Canyon State Park, along with backcountry tent sites, while Stephen C. Foster State Park is an International Dark Sky Park and a wildlife haven set on the banks of the Okefenokee Swamp.
Coastal Georgia
Georgia’s 100-mile slice of Atlantic coastline stretches down from Savannah to Cumberland Island, peppered with sandy beaches, saltwater marshes, and barrier islands. Rent a camper cabin or RV site with full hookups close to the beaches and waterways of Skidaway Island State Park, explore the biking trails or take a dolphin-spotting cruise around Tybee Island, or escape the crowds at the hike-in campsites along the Cumberland Island National Seashore.
