Broad River Campground

Overview

Situated near the banks of the Broad River, this park emphasizes a return to nature without sacrificing essential comforts. Whether you are arriving in a large motorhome or looking for a primitive tent site, the atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming. It serves as a primary gateway for those looking to explore the water-based recreation and the historic charm of Wilkes County in a peaceful, natural setting.

Location & Surroundings

The campground is located in the rural landscape of Tignall, GA, providing a peaceful buffer from the hustle of urban life. The property is characterized by its proximity to the water, where the river meanders through the Georgia countryside. Surrounded by dense woodlands and rolling hills, the site offers a lush, green backdrop for evening strolls. It is an ideal spot for those who appreciate low light pollution and the opportunity to view starry night skies from the comfort of their campsite.

The park features full hookup RV sites with both 30 and 50-amp electrical service, accommodating various rig sizes and power needs. Practical requirements are met with on-site laundry facilities and a modern, clean bathhouse. For those traveling without an RV, the park offers cozy rental cabins. The inclusion of spacious pull-through sites makes arrival and departure simple for those navigating larger fifth-wheels or motorhomes, and the entire property remains pet-friendly.

Nearby Attractions & Things to Do

Outdoor enthusiasts will find plenty to do just minutes away from their home base. The river itself is a prime spot for kayaking and fishing, particularly near the scenic Anthony Shoals area. A short drive takes visitors to Richard B. Russell Lake or Lake Thurmond, both famous for boating and tournament-style fishing. History buffs can explore the nearby city of Washington, GA, which is home to numerous historic buildings and antebellum architecture that reflects the rich heritage of the southern United States.

I was harassed by someone for using the boat ramp between park hours. Paid my fee, but was cussed at for the water being low and I shouldn’t be putting my mud boat in.

One of my favorite campgrounds in Georgia. Has WiFi at check in but no Verizon service. Just far enough out that you can relax but with a three min walk can call loved ones and check in on them.
