The sites are varied and most are directly on the water. On a visit to Mistletoe State Park, visitors may use nature trails, visit a nature center, and probably see deer grazing within view of park roads.

Below is our campsite at Winfield Campground. We got here earlier than the rest of the group and spent our time visiting downtown Augusta, Thurmond Lake Dam, Harlem, home of Oliver Hardy, and the signal corp museum at Ft. Gordon.
Below is a picture of Strom Thurmond Lake and the dam. There is an excellent picnic and boat launch area just to the lower left, not in picture. The visitor's center has wonderful exhibits and a film on the dam.
On of the highlights of this trip was the Oliver Hardy Festival in Harlem, which is on the first Saturday in Oct. They showed Laurel & Hardy films in the museum all day and had the whole town blocked off for a parade and vendors. About 35,000 people showed up. There, I learned that there is an Oliver & Hardy international fan club which holds meetings around the world and throughout the US.
