Large Group Stays

Hard Labor Creek State Park Group Camps

Rutledge, GA · Morgan County · State parks and public lands · Run by Georgia Department of Natural Resources, State Parks and Historic Sites

Worth knowing

  • Two separate group camps are offered, one sleeping 75 and one sleeping 120, so one group can pick the smaller or larger site.
  • The page marks the group camps as seasonal without giving dates, and lists a deer-hunt closure on 2026-11-03 and 2026-11-04.
  • Same park also rents an Event Room seating 100, two group shelters seating 85 and 120, and 20 cottages.
  • Group camp terms: one-night deposit at booking, balance at check-in; cancelling 181 or more days out costs $50, closer in forfeits half the use fee.
  • The agency describes Georgia group camps as rustic youth-group camps with bunk-style sleeping, large kitchens and assembly rooms, but this park's page does not list its own buildings.

Ask before you book

Built from what the operator's page left open when we checked.

  1. Is your stated capacity the permitted occupancy, or a count of every bed and sofa?
  2. Is there a kitchen your group can use, and how many people can it feed at once?
  3. Can meals be provided, or does your group cook for itself?
  4. Which rooms and bathrooms work for a wheelchair or walker?
  5. What is the minimum stay?
  6. What is the full price, with cleaning fees and taxes?
