Fort Yargo State Park - State park in Winder - 210 S Broad St, USA

A very nice state park. Probably the best that the wife and I have been to over the last 6 weeks. We have decided to go to one state park a week until we visit all of the state parks in Georgia. This park has it all. A beach RV camping, primitive camping cabins to rent and it even has a yurt if you want to rent a yurt as well. Several pavilions dozens of picnic tables and a large concession area with a very large covered pavilion next to the concession area. This park looks like it has a lot of visitors in the summertime. There are canoes available as well as paddle boats. The swimming activities are no lifeguard at this time and the boats that can be used are closed for the season. There are also plenty of trails and such for those that like to do that. This is a dog friendly park. The visitor center is very nice in the staff are very pleasant to work with.

Really nice state park. Campsites are close to the lake. The bath house was clean. Visitor's center is nice. We didn't like sharing the hiking trail with cyclists as they sometimes didn't alert us they were coming. I think it's dangerous.

Visiting my daughter & her family all the way from Arizona.... And this gem is 10 mins from her house. Literally it is half woods and half lake. Such beautiful scenery while you play in the lake. It was a bit busy, cuz it was Labor Day, but we had a fantastic day!!! Everyone was so very nice and respectful to each other!! I highly recommend this spot to have a family day!!

Book a yurt for a night to see how things would be, wow very serene and pleasant. Just make sure you bring your own bedding. The futon mattresses may not accommodate how comfortable you want to be.

I personally love Fort Yargo. It is one of the best places to take your kids or family. We just spent three days there camping and it wasn’t bad. People were nice. It was really quiet. Fishing is good for the younger kids. Plenty of bluegill and sunfish for them to catch. It’s a little harder unless you have a boat and you can fish the less fish areas for adults, I love Fort Yargo, though one of my favorite places to go escape from reality for a little while. The swimming area is also super fun for your kids and family as well. Pretty well-kept up the people in charge of it could be a little nicer sometimes, but they just try to do their jobs overall love fort yargo highly recommend for families.

This park is super nice. Lots of trail options, interesting things to see and experience. Yurts, water activities, events - all around fun for those that enjoy outdoor peace.

Really enjoyed the park this winter. Camping spots were quite large. Bathroom was nice. Enjoyed the mtn biking trails. Looking forward to returning sometime!

Such a beautiful park! Plenty of trails to hike and jog. Tons of accessible shoreline for fishing and paddling (kayak, canoe, SUP, etc). The beach is a fun spot to hang out and grill with family and friends and just launch your exploration of the park! Very well kept and maintained! Totally will be going back!!
