Piney Hills Campground

17 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents106 acres · Mauk, GA
We purchased this property to have a homestead and a place to get away from the stress and demands of city life. We have over 100 acres here and lots of animals on our farm that you can see and visit from the campground. We also have hiking trails through approximately 80 acres in the back of the property with steep hills and ravines to hike or bring your mountain bikes! It’s very quiet here except for the sounds of the farm animals and roosters crowing in the morning. You can also hear the occasional train passing through nearby. If you enjoy seeing the stars you will really enjoy it here the sky is very dark at night. Don't forget to bring your flashlights. Lol! We have several spacious sites to choose from including~ 2 platform sites, 2 A-frame cabins with AC/heat, 3 primitive tent sites, 1 RV that is fully hooked up, and 10 RV sites with power and water and sewer available. Each site is set up with a fire pit, picnic table, and camp grill. All campers have access to our 2 bath-houses with hot/cold showers and flushable toilets. We just finished building our RV park with 10 sites with electric and water hook-ups that is NOW OPEN!- with a brand new 4 stall Bath-house, Laundry Facility and more sites to come later. You may also visit the farm animals, we have lots of them. Mini-ponies, zebu cows, ducks, chickens, turkeys, rabbits, sheep, goat and a EMU!! We have over 60 acres of hiking/bike trails. We hope to have E-bike/golf cart rentals for our licensed guests soon. We can't wait to see you! Book your site today!

Railroad Refugee Homestead

2 sites · RVs, Tents5 acres · Sylvester, GA
Hello friends, and welcome to my new Homestead in beautiful Southwest Georgia. I have almost 5 acres of wooded property that I am in the long, tedious process of clearing and using. So far there are no structures or services on the property, but I have a large, quiet, cleared area that can accommodate several RVs and has a large fire pit and picnic table. I also have a pile of firewood that you can use for a fee. Up until recently, there wasn't access to this property or even a culvert from the road. The place is on a quiet, dead-end road with only a few houses around, and it backs up to hunting plantation ground. I camp here several days a week with my small camper and it is a great place to enjoy an evening by the fire and a quiet night's sleep without being disturbed. Just understand that this is a passion project and a work in progress. Please be 100% self-contained and don't leave any trash behind. Pack it in, Pack it out.

Overview

About

On your way from Cordele to Plains, you stumble across this Georgia state park with a rich history and numerous activities. Boating, biking, and hiking are just a start to the fun! Bring your golf clubs to hit the links or try frisbee golf.

Relax on a ride on the Sam Shortline excursion train and take in the scenery. If you prefer something a little more precise, you can target shoot and practice archery. This park, dedicated to veterans, offers the Military Museum. Kids love seeing the tanks and old planes.

Pitch your tent or spread out in an RV at one of the 82 campsites. Enjoy the cable TV access, water, and electricity at the trailer and RV sites. No matter where you camp, you can take a hot shower in the modern restrooms.

If you want a solid roof over your head, book a room at the Lake Blackshear Resort and Golf Club. There are also 10 lakefront cabins to relax and unwind. At the marina, you can enjoy a sit-down meal at the Cypress Grill.
