Discover Mistletoe State Park


Getting Outdoors

On your motorhome camping adventure at Mistletoe State Park, you'll no doubt spend most of your time down by the lake. Avid anglers will want to try their luck reeling in a striped or largemouth bass from one of the best bass fishing spots in the country. Trout is also on the menu here, so don't forget to pack your tackle box in the campervan rental.

Escape the infamous Georgia humidity and take a dip at the designated swimming beach. Note that the beach is open seasonally. If you'd rather be on the lake than in it, Mistletoe State Park campers can also rent canoes on-site. Launch from one of the park's three boat ramps and take your time exploring this 71,000-acre reservoir. Jet skiing is also a favorite pastime here.

Back on land, you'll find over 15 miles of hiking and biking trails to trek. Birders will want to hit the Beach Trail, a two-mile route which wanders through the woods and leads down to the beach. Adventurers looking for a longer, more challenging hike will want to take the Rock Dam Trail, a six-mile path that meaders past calm creeks and tranquil forest. Along the way, you'll find several places to extend your hike or cut it short. Hikers are advised to bring a map with them for this route.

Take a break from exploring this vast park and head to one of the five picnic shelters to enjoy a packed lunch. The park's educational programs are also a great way to learn more about the flora and fauna native to Georgia. Guided nature hikes and wildlife demonstrations are sure to delight the pint-sized campers in your crew. Time your visit just right to enjoy a full-moon hike, a canoe trip at sunrise, or the park's annual fall festival.

Camping at Mistletoe State Park

Lakeside loungers camping at Mistletoe State Park can take their pick of 93 sites which accommodate RV rentals. All sites come with water and electric hookups, and pull-through and back-in options are available. A handful of premium sites come equipped with full hookups. RV spaces can accommodate rigs up to 50 feet long. Reserve your site in advance and you just might snag a space with views of the lake.

You'll enjoy all the creature comforts you'd expect from a state park RV campground, including restrooms, showers, laundry facilities, and a dump station. Other options for camping at Mistletoe State Park include primitive tent sites and fully outfitted cabins. Leashed, well-behaved pets are welcome at all RV campsites and even the fisherman's cabin.

Exploring the Area

No Mistletoe State Park camping adventure is complete without taking some time to explore the attractions outside the park. Civil War history buffs will want to make the 40-minute drive to Washington to experience the Robert Toombs House State Historic Site. Toombs served as a U.S. senator, the Confederate Secretary of State, and eventually a general for the Confederate Army. Tour the restored home, trails, grounds, and museum for a unique insight into the life and legacy of the Toombs family.

If you're itching to get back to the city, you're just a stone's throw from Augusta. Your first order of business should be exploring the immaculate downtown area on foot along the Augusta Riverwalk. Snap photos of the Savannah River, play in the fountain, or make a beeline for one of the museums which bookend the path. Get cultured at the Augusta Museum of History and the Morris Museum of Art and end your day with a gourmet meal at one of the upscale restaurants along the riverwalk.

If Mistletoe was so much fun that you want to visit another park, but you want a new twist, try Hickory Hill. The former home of politician, lawyer, and writer Thomas E. Watson, this historic site features walking trails, gardens, fountains, and some excellent opportunities for birdwatching. Book a tour of the home and grounds and make the 20-minute drive to Thomson to see Watson's fully restored Greek Revival mansion.

Ready to hit the road again? Top up the gas tank at one of the gas stations near Fort Gordon Recreation Area. Then, head south towards I-20, which leads east into Augusta and west into Atlanta.
