Forsyth, Georgia Campground | Forsyth KOA Journey

Halfway between musically rich Macon and cosmopolitan Atlanta-and with easy access to I-75-the Forsyth KOA lies in the heart of Georgia.

Halfway between musically rich Macon and cosmopolitan Atlanta - and with easy access to I-75 - this KOA lies in the heart of Georgia. Though you'd never know it from the quiet country setting, the campground is convenient to the city services of Forsyth and a host of regional attractions. Sample true Southern hospitality in lively villages. Explore lovely lakes, splashing waterfalls and rivers plump with catfish. Snap photos in charming Juliette, where Fried Green Tomatoes was filmed, then cool off on 3,600-acre Lake Juliette. Movie fans can relive Gone with the Wind at Jonesboro's Road to Tara Museum, less than an hour's drive. Visit Macon during its Cherry Blossom Festival for a burst of spring color. Gather your group at KOA's rally center with its full-service kitchen. Basketball, volleyball and pedal boats keep everyone busy. Early spring to late fall (Fridays/Saturdays), the Forsyth KOA Express Train provides free late evening narrated tours of the city of Forsyth. Email: ke123@msn.com. Pool: May 1 - September 30. Max pull thru: 100 feet. Your hosts: Ken & Mary Ann Bowman.

Nice pull-thru. Checked in and a gentleman guided me to our site. A few minutes later he brought me a "welcome" box of baked cookies. Since it was pouring rain... 4/9/2021

We really enjoyed our stay. Loved the pond and enjoyed a little fishing. 4/6/2021

It was just a quick stop over. Arrived later in the evening and all paperwork was out front and we had no problem finding our site and setting up. Campground is just off of I 75 so it's easy to access. Very clean. 4/6/2021

Always good stop. Hot cookies! Do not wait to reserve site. They go fast. 4/6/2021

We stay at this campground every year when we travel back and forth to Florida. It is a wonderful facility. The grounds are beautiful and clean. The staff is helpful and friendly. They bring warm cookies to your RV shortly after you check in, what a treat... 4/5/2021

Great hospitality. 4/5/2021

Stopped on our way back from Florida. Site we were in had a hill where our steps came down so it was a little hard to navigate. Otherwise well taken care of. Thanks for the warm cookies! 4/4/2021

Just passing through 4/4/2021

Staff was great. Pizza shop mad a great pizza and it was real nice having it delivered to the site after a long day driving. sites are narrow but sufficient for a short stay. Only concern was the branches on the pine trees... 4/4/2021

Wonderful check in except for the person not offering military discount in spite of the fact I had on my Vietnam Veteran cap. The guide to my site asked me about it,"Did they offer military discount"? I told her now and she went back to office and got it for me... 4/4/2021

Our site was convenient and overlooked the pond but it was difficult to level. 4/4/2021
