Best Time to Camp at R Shaefer Heard
Experience the gentle rhythms of the Georgia-Alabama borderlands, where mild winters invite year-round camping adventures and warm summers create perfect conditions for lake activities. As autumn arrives, the landscape transforms into a breathtaking canvas of crimson and gold, while spring brings fresh blooms and renewed energy to the trails. Though occasional storms may roll through, bringing dramatic skies and refreshing rains, the temperate climate ensures comfortable camping conditions throughout most of the year.
Summer is busiest season and ideal for boating, swimming, and fishing.
Mild autumns, fewer crowds and pleasant temps make fall ideal for visits.
Mild spring temps and active wildlife/boating make it a very good season.
Open year-round with mild winters but fewer outdoor water activities available.
