Bolding Mill campground, Corps of Engineers park on Lake Sidney Lanier, GA. Best-maintained, most scenic Federal campground we have visited in 39 states and Canadian provinces. However, it is now operated by Hall County, so is not available through recreation.gov and I have no idea if it is as well-kept.

Thanks for sharing these sites, they all seem very nice and worth looking into. Hopefully by the end of this year, or possibly next year. Can’t wait to get back out on the road……
