Discover the most magical spots to pitch your tent or park your rig on your next George L. Smith State Park adventure.
Discover the serene beauty of George L. Smith State Park.
Human civilization may not have invented a time machine yet, but that doesn't mean you can't blast to the past. Head over to George L. Smith State Park, where a gristmill and refurbished Parrish Mill are so 1880's. Keep an eye out for the Georgian gopher tortoise, or navigate your canoe paddle through tupelo strands and cypress trees adorned with Spanish moss. Hikers will enjoy the view of the seven mile stretch of trails, the perfect spot for wildlife watching. Best of all? Campers may be able to sleep right on the water's edge, lulled to sleep by the gentle coo of pond animals. Sometimes, it pays to live in the past.
The best time to visit George L. Smith State Park is during spring and fall when the weather is mild and the natural beauty is at its peak. Summer offers lush greenery, but be prepared for warmer temperatures. Winters are quiet and serene, though some facilities may be limited.
