What Guests Are Saying
Petersburg Campground features friendly staff and well-maintained, clean facilities, making it a pleasant place to stay. Many campers appreciate the spacious, diverse sites and beautiful views, despite ongoing recovery from Hurricane Helene, which has affected some amenities and scenery. While there are some drawbacks, such as restroom accessibility and low lake water levels, the overall experience remains positive, with many expressing a desire to return.

Visiting family in Augusta, and this COE was a perfect base of operation. Site 47 is a very nice pull through right on the reservoir. Very quite other than the speed boats and jet skis running up and down the Lake, but you soon learn to tune them out. Definitely looking forward to a second (maybe longer) stay one day.

Great place to relax besides the last night when some kids were being rowdy all night. Campground was clean and accommodating. We enjoyed the bike trail even though it was flooded. We will try to come back. Thanks
