Located on the beautiful Broad River, summer offers views of kayakers and tubers floating down the river, close enough to see, but far enough away to feel alone. Eagle spottings and colorful landscapes make this retreat a camper's heaven. Learn more about this land: 20 minutes from downtown Athens. A quarter mile down a winding dirt drive will open up to a beautiful scene of river and nature. Quiet solitude and you are at one with this piece of heaven. Keep your eyes open for the bald eagle. If you are agile enough, climb down the terrain to the river for an early morning bath or fish for lunch. This site is a singular rental. You will have it to yourself. You may choose to camp with friends in which there is space for an Rv and a pull behind or two small rvs. It can also be used to tent camp. There is a small shed with a full bunk on bottom and a twin on top. A table with two chairs and electric fireplace. There is in addition, a small A/C unit in the shed.

Broad River Retreat

Spectacular!

I can't say enough nice things about this site! My husband and I came here for a mini honeymoon after our wedding and it couldn't have been more perfect. The view and constant sound of the river was so calming. The bunk house was really comfortable. The complete privacy was the best thing. We even climbed down to the river to swim a little. We loved it so much! We are planning on trying to come back in a few months!

Air-condioner in the corner was a life saver! Walk down to the river was easier and shorter than expected!

Broad River Retreat

Always a good time

What a gem. This is my favorite campsite on the Broad River, maybe in the state and of Georgia. Beautiful views, privacy, and a flushing toilet, the three hardest things to find in a campsite. Plus plenty of room to play cornhole or throw a football.

Broad River Retreat

Amazing trip!

We had an amazing time on the Broad River at Jean’s. It was the perfect combination of camping for my son in his tent & glamping with all the amenities (bathroom/shower/place to sleep) for the adults. The view was beautiful and we loved being up on the top of the hill, looking down at the river & all the kayakers going by. We floated the river, which was a lot of fun seeing the spot as we floated by. We will definitely come back! It’s been one of our favorite family trips so far.
