Absolutely amazing place! JROTC Raiders competition was great here. The views are amazing!

★★★★★Marie M

Just got back from an awesome weekend camping with our troop. I stayed in the cabins with some of the other adults. I made sure to take pics of the cabins since there are none on the internet . The cabins were very comfortable. Do bring toilet paper, sheets (full/queen) and cleaning supplies. It was cold out but the rooms were comfortable. The cabins are split in two. So a full separate "apartments" top and bottom floors. Each having 4 sets of bunks.

★★★★★Jason Bushmire

A great Scout base. There is a wide range of activities for scouts.

★★★★★Barrett Thompson

Beautiful property and fantastic program for our Troop and Venture Crew for over 15 years. This is our local council camp and it's a hub of activities all year long. Our Philmont crews train here in backcountry sites built just like the real thing! Highly recommended.

Takes me to another place. Its a farcry from the other campgrounds around georgia, this is unique. A beautiful spot in the foothills, you get a sense of the values set in place on stones, signs and buildings around the base by the Boy Scouts. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit this last weekend. Thankyou to the kind folks that run the camp.
