When the weather starts to cool off, many people don't think about camping in Georgia. But we're lucky enough to have mild winters through most of the state, and even our coldest regions are not too bad when compared to more northern areas of the country. We've got plenty of great opportunities for year-round camping at state parks in Georgia. No matter the season, you'll be met with incredibly scenic beauty and ample opportunities for recreation. Here are a few of our favorite places to pitch a tent or park an RV:

1. Fort Yargo State Park: 210 S Broad St, Winder, GA 30680

Fort Yargo State Park is perfect for summer, with its 260-acre lake with a beach and fishing areas. But it's great for a visit at any time of year! You'll find a wonderful year-round campground with cabins, cottages, tent and RV sites, and even six yurts for rent.

2. Skidaway Island State Park: 52 Diamond Causeway, Savannah, GA 31411

4. Tallulah Gorge State Park: 338 Jane Hurt Yarn Rd, Tallulah Falls, GA 30573

7. George L. Smith St Park: 371 George L Smith State Park Rd, Twin City, GA 30471

You'd think that George L. Smith State Park would be well-known: after all, it boasts 1,600 acres of amazing landscapes. However, it's tucked away in Emanuel County, a bit of a remote area that isn't frequented by visitors. There are primitive campsites and walk-in sites available here, plus a few cottages.
