As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.

Many of us think of the warm months as “camping season,” but there’s really no reason for that. Much of Georgia has a pretty mild climate, and even in the dead of winter, you’ll find people wearing shorts in the southern part of the state. We have plenty of year-round campgrounds in Georgia that make for wonderful getaways, no matter the season. If you’re looking to avoid crowds and chaos, visiting one of our wonderful campgrounds in the cooler months is a great experience. It can be so much easier to feel in touch with nature when you’re not surrounded by noisy families out on a summer vacation or spring break. One of our favorite year-round campgrounds in Georgia is Okefenokee Pastimes Cabins and Campground near Folkston, GA. This place offers up some of the best camping near the Okefenokee Swamp, and you can enjoy it at any time of year.

I know the mighty Okefenokee Swamp needs no introduction, but just in case you need a refresher, this mighty blackwater swamp is considered one of Georgia's seven natural wonders.

It lies right along the border with Florida and encompasses 438,000 acres. It is the largest blackwater ecosystem in North America and has a remarkably large swath of protected land.
Okefenokee Pastimes sits directly outside the national wildlife refuge, giving you easy access to the park and all its wild adventures.
