We needed a last minute place with electric hookup to spend the cold night on our way north. I could easily instantly book this spot on the way. Janna was responsive and accommodated our late night arrival. We enjoyed the open grass land and sun in the morning.

Weekend Trip to Cassabl Farm

We had amazing time tent camping here. We got to meet Steve and April as they brought wood to our campsite when we first arrived and they were very kind and answered all our questions. They told us all about the budding vineyard visible from the campsites and how it will soon support a winery that will be opening next year. We were lucky enough to be able to try a few of their wines and they were all delicious. We'll definitely be coming to visit the winery once it opens up! The camp sites were all well mentioned and felt safe and secluded. There was plenty of firewood available to purchase and the porta potty was clean and centrally located. My wife and I explored the property a bit with our dog and it was very nice. The sunset view of the marsh at the far edge of the property was absolutely gorgeous and it was really cool to be able to walk around the vineyard and check out that area of the campsite. We will definitely be coming back to camp here regularly!

Weekend Trip to Cassabl Farm

Quiet, private and excellent hosts. Great for a guys weekend, family or just to get away and relax. The weather was 70s in the day and 40s at night and the bugs were only out for a couple hours in the morning and in the afternoon. Firewood was dry and well stocked, for 10$ a night. Great place, great hosts, will save the location for future getaways.

Our campground was founded in 1980 on a family owned estate established in the mid 1800. We are just a short drive off of I-95 in Coastal Ga, near Brunswick,Ga; only minutes from the beaches of the Golden Isles of Ga, Okefenokee Swamp Park and Northeast Fl.

FoxPen

47mi from Fort McAllister State Park · 17 sites · Tents, Lodging · Hortense, GA

Tucked away on 140 acres of quiet woods and open skies, FoxPen is a place built on dreams, hard work, and a love for the land. For over 24 years, Doyle Watson—along with his wife Lee, two daughters, local friends from Hortense, and a whole lot of heart—has shaped this hidden haven into a space where people can slow down, unplug, and reconnect with what matters most. What began as a single tiny cabin in 1999 has grown into five hand-built cabins, each crafted from local and reclaimed materials and brimming with rustic character. One cabin, the Briar Patch, was once an old tobacco barn and still holds its original door as a proud piece of history. Every cabin, every trail, and every campfire circle has a story—and if you’re lucky, you might hear a few from Doyle himself as you walk the land, sit beneath the stars, or join him on a Tractor Trailer Ride. Before becoming the peaceful retreat center it is today, FoxPen was once a fox-hunting preserve—hence the name. When the Watson family purchased the property, they kept the name but relocated the foxes, allowing the land’s natural wildlife to thrive. At FoxPen, life moves slower. Nature leads the way. And there’s not much to do but play, relax, and savor the simple, timeless things that never go out of style. Managing the rentals is the youngest daughter, Evan—that’s me! Feel free to reach out with any questions.

The best camping in Fort McAllister State Park, GA guide

Overview

About

While best-known for its Civil War connections, Fort McAllister State Park, which is nestled among giant oaks, Spanish moss and salt marsh on the banks of Ogeechee River, is a beautiful setting for fishing, hiking, biking and boating. There are more than four miles of varied and scenic hiking trails to explore by foot, as well as some designated biking trails. Paddlers can explore the river by canoe or kayak while anglers can enjoy fly fishing, bass fishing, and trout fishing. Fort McAllister State Park Campground has 67 campsites for tents, trailers and RVs, while backpackers can hike into the two designated backcountry sites.

Tips for snagging a campsite

Bookings can easily be secured online or by phone, up to 13 months in advance.
Campers wishing to use the backcountry sites should book well in advance: There are only two sites and they book up quickly.
Any sites that have not been reserved are available on a first-come, first first-served basis.

When to go

The most popular time to visit is in spring and summer, so it’s a good idea to make reservations during that period. Summers in the area tend to get hot and humid (with temperatures typically in the low 90s) but the park has the advantage of water-based activities to keep you cool. Fort McAllister State Park is known for its educational programming, so check the calendar to see what’s on before planning a visit.

Know before you go

Bicycles are available to rent in the park, as are canoes, kayaks and paddleboards on a seasonal basis.
Free Wi-Fi is available in the park office and museum.
Pets are welcome, as long as they are kept on a leash.
Georgia law requires that anyone 16 and older have a fishing license
