Spend The Night In An Authentic Yurt In The Middle Of Georgia’s Lake Hartwell
Spend a weekend away exploring the beauty of nature and solitude in this hidden gem park in Georgia. While camping has become a huge pastime for Georgia residents and visitors, renting a yurt for the weekend is somewhat uncharted territory. At Tugaloo State Park in Georgia, you can rent one of six authentic yurts in the yurt village for an epic weekend away.
Tugaloo State Park is a hidden gem on the border of Georgia and South Carolina nestled snugly within one of the Southeast’s largest lakes—Lake Hartwell.
Many visitors to Georgia hit the 55,000-acre lake for a variety of recreational activities on the water, but most overlook the beautiful state park right next door.
Tugaloo State Park is a fantastic place to spend a weekend out in nature, especially when you rent one of their authentic yurts in the park’s yurt village.
Enjoy the sunsets from your back porch—and a little tip for any renter—try to score Yurt #4 for your stay, it has the best waterfront views and is right on the edge of the peninsula.
