Everything was ready and clean. We had a picnic with 250 member of our church and we all enjoyed!

I've rented the same shelter twice, once for my son's graduation party and again for the 4th of July in the same year. We had a wonderful time and loved the surrounding area. We loved the privacy and the convenience of the close by restrooms. We absolutely loved the nature surrounding us. The children watched a family of Armadillos dig for food. All around great time and the price is reasonable. We will be back again.

My family and I had the best experience using Riverside Park Day Use Area (Ga)! The space was clean and had great access to the dam stream - wonderful for wading in the water and tubing. There were ample grilling pits and a covered seating area as well as a sand volleyball court and children's playground. I would recommend and will probably be back next summer!
