Eastbank Campground is located on Lake Seminole on the Georgia-Florida state line.
The lake and surrounding area provide a variety of outdoor recreational opportunities for fishing, camping, boating, picnicking, hiking, biking and birding.
Lake Seminole is known as one of the best sites for sports fishing in America. Extensive stump and grass beds provide abundant cover where anglers fish for largemouth, hybrid, striped and white bass. Sizable populations of catfish, crappie and bream are also present. Over 79 species of fish have been identified in the lake.
Boating, water skiing and swimming are popular activities. The campground offers a boat ramp, dock and a fish cleaning station.
The campground is open year-round and offers a total of 65 sites, most of which have both electric and water hookups. Flush toilets, showers, drinking water, laundry facilities and a dump station are provided. A group picnic shelter is on-site.
Lake Seminole has a surface area of 37,500 acres with 376 miles of shoreline. A pine and hardwood forest covers the rolling hills around the lake. A variety of wildlife makes its home around Seminole Lake, including raccoons, alligators, ring-necked ducks, canvasbacks, scaup, hawks, bald eagles, black vultures, tortoises and snakes.

Absolutely stunning! Huge sites, most on the water. So quiet!
Like it very much overall. The only things I saw that could be improved is the grass was a little overgrown, and the trash container is a big open top container .
People have made wonderful comments on the Corps of Engineers FB page about this campground. It did not disappoint. The layout is not your typical rows of campsites. The walk to the dam is pleasant with gators, turtles and birds. There were no laundry facilities when we were there April 2023. Sunsets are fantastic.
Can't believe there are not more people here. Beautiful, spacious spaces. Right on the lake only $26 per night. The only negative is that there are not black/grey water connections at the site, but other than that gorgeous views, facilities, location, accessibility etc. Definitely recommend C spots.
