You might be surprised to learn that we’re the largest non-governmental provider of recreational facilities in Georgia.
Our lakes, rivers and parks are perfect for indulging in your passion for the water and the great outdoors.
Please note: Due to COVID-19 restrictions, certain facilities at some of our lakes and campgrounds remain closed. This can include but may not be limited to bathrooms, boat docks, fishing piers and picnic areas.
We own over 100,000 acres of land in Georgia, much of which is accessible for outdoor recreation.
Of that, 30,000 acres is being used for wildlife management areas operated by the Wildlife Resources Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.
We also own and operate reservoirs all around Georgia which provide a host of outdoor recreational opportunities including boating, paddling, fishing, swimming, picnicking, camping, and many more.
