Site 4 - drive up site
We stayed here for one night on our way down to Florida. It was a peaceful site set back in the woods. We wish we had time to stay longer. The site was nice and private and was set up with a fire pit, homemade bench, and cooking table. We will definitely stop here again next time we are in the area.
Easy check in process. The owner met us at the address and showed us where the campsite was. She provided a potty, TP, hand sanitizer, basic pot and pan and firewood! So perfect.

Beautiful spot to camp. The host was soooo nice and helpful. Too bad I could only stay one night. Highly recommend.
I had a great stay at Surewood ForRest. I embedded up at site 4 because site 3 isn't suited for driving into the site. Could have easily fit 2 vehicles, or tents workout being on the path. Fairly quiet. Lots of forest sounds. Some distant industrial sounds but not enough to disturb.

Site 4 - drive up site
Such a lovely campsite and host. We had a wonderful time and would definitely be back.
This campsite was amazing! I hiked in with my 10 year old son and his friend, with 2 small dogs - very easy walk for about 3-5 minutes (was even offered assistance) but it ends up in a secluded forest clearing.
You reach a well appointed campsite with plenty of flat, well-groomed ground space for tents, and equipped with large fire ring and cooking grate, lots of countertop space and a new wooden bench. Small stream (no fish) runs by. Not for adventurers, but perfect for a quiet, relaxing, private night in the wilderness. Solar lighted pit toilets and very accommodating host. Would highly recommend. Wonderful stay.

This site was great! We booked last minute and went down for the night and had a wonderful time. The hosts were very communicative and helpful. We walked around in the morning and said hello to the goats and chickens. The site was well kept and well shaded. Would definitely return!

My husband and I camped out for a few days here and it was so beautiful and relaxing! The hosts go above and beyond to help improve your stay and there’s gas stations & restaurants a short drive away, I highly recommend Surewood FoRest!
We loved the drive-up site (#4). It was perfect for our overnight stop. There was a great firepit which we enjoyed both evening and morning and a permanent bench and table right on the site. Host is really responseful and helpful and we loved hearing the peacocks!

We stayed at site 4 with a Ford F-150. The site was far enough from the house that it felt private. We only stayed one night, but would definitely stay again!

Site 4 - drive up site
SureWood FoRest is a fantastic spot for escaping to nature. The sites are a way back on the property and well separated. It was a little muddy where I set up, but rain will do that. My dog loved being off lead and exploring nearby while I cooked and tended the fire. She was a little disappointed that the goats didn't want to meet her. We took some nice walks around the property, and drove over to High Falls State Park to hike the trail there.
I definitely recommend this camp if you're looking to unplug and unwind.

Great location. Spent two nights. Great amount of hiking in the area. The cooking table built outside is a game changer. Tons of land for my dog to explore too

The campsite was secluded and very private. Very nicely kept. Fire pit and a food prep table. Plenty of room. The hosts were very hospitable.
This is a great secluded spot for over night or a weekend trip. Me and my two brother in laws wanted a quick getaway. It was easy to get to. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. I had plenty of room for my sprinter and a jeep with two tents and space for cooking around the fire. I would highly recommend checking this spot out.

Site 2 - walk and deepest in woods
We had such a great weekend staying at site 2! The owners were so sweet, helpful, and accommodating to any question we had. The site was clean and had some extra things provided that we could use during our stay. The owners even brought me a birthday gift to make our trip even more special! I would highly recommend this place for a camping trip!
I had a wonderful stay on JoLane and Sam's place. JoLane offered prompt replies and all information needed for arrival. Sam (a veteran) met me and guided me to Site 4. We had a nice chat about local going-ons... all the more making me feel at home. The site was just right for my Colorado and 16ft camper. That being said, this site would be perfect for single or multiple tent camping! I enjoyed the peaceful feeling of being in remote, deep woods... without really being far away from conveniences or access to major roads. Do yourself a favor a spend a night or two here!

Site 1 - near goat pasture
Staying at the farm has been one of the best camping trips I’ve ever taken! Mrs Jo and Mr Sam were the absolute best hosts anyone could ask for! Had help unloading and bringing my gear to the site. They were also so nice to let me borrow a small heater for when it was going to get down to freezing. The weather was beautiful and the walks through the property were great. My dog and I thoroughly enjoyed being around the goats and the mule since we stayed at the goat site. Enjoyed waking up to the roosters and peacocks. Plenty of good deadfall for firewood and the sites are set up very well. I also brought home some soap and honey that were made at the farm. Couldn’t have asked for a better weekend of relaxation and time in the woods. So many great things, but too many to list! You will definitely have to go experience it for yourself! I will definitely be returning!

We had such a great time. My wife and kids had to set up camp before I got there, and Mr. Sam helped them carry our stuff to the campsite and even loaned use a few items to make things easier. The site was private and secluded, perfect for our weekend getaway!

very welcoming and accommodating hosts. It was a peaceful stay. Their goats are very cute. The peacocks are beautiful. At the time of our visit there was plenty of firewood and if you are a mushroom hunter, plenty of what I believe to be chanterelles.

I unfortunately had to cancel due to travel circumstances and JoLane was so accommodating. My cancellation request didn’t process and she fought to get me a refund, on her own time. I am so appreciative of the time it took to ensure I got the refund and the kindness shown to me. I can’t wait to visit this little slice of paradise
Awesome campsite. Very nice host and caring people very secluded from other campsites. If I’m ever back in Griffin, GA, I’ll be back this campsite.
