    I wanted to wait a few days before writing this review -- truthfully, I wanted to wait until after…read morewe checked out. I dreaded the retribution of Mrs. Cynthia "Cindy" Farmer, the campground manager, which I was sure would follow. Our church group had been looking forward to this camping trip for nearly a year. I've personally camped at Bald Ridge Creek Campground many times and never had a single issue -- until now. Our church typically takes two group trips a year at another Forsyth County campground, but this year, we decided to rent nine sites at Bald Ridge. Even Cindy seemed excited that we were coming! We're a Baptist group -- not exactly known for our wild nights. We sing, we fellowship, and we're back in our campers by 10 p.m. But according to "Queen Cindy," you'd think we were a pack of college kids throwing keg parties. Our crime? An evening of worship and fellowship -- a small keyboard, a guitar, and around 50 people spread over three campsites for a couple of hours each night. Cindy declared it an "event" (apparently forbidden) and told us we couldn't do it again and threatened to make us all leave. She also banned us from eating together -- saying we could gather while serving food but had to disperse to our own campsites immediately once we got our plates. The only actual rule violation came from one site where a tent wasn't put up right away. Cindy seized on that excuse to call dispatch and have three sheriff's deputies sent to "deal with" our peaceful group of families, children, and worshipers. To their credit, the deputies couldn't have been kinder, yet embarrassed that they even had to be there. They laughed at the situation, noting they're called out to the campground frequently because of Cindy's pettiness and made-up rules. They said our little keyboard -- which Cindy had described like it was a baby grand piano -- was no problem at all. They simply advised us to set up the tent and let her stomp it out. Cindy even claimed that someone had called the Corps of Engineers to report us -- at 7:00 p.m., during the government shutdown, when the office wasn't even open. For context, Cindy lives at the campground for free as part of her role as host. It's time for someone new to take over. She also wears a body camera and records campers (which is legal, I know), but as a county employee, those recordings are public record. We'll continue to pray without ceasing for her -- that the Lord softens her heart. But until then, I can't recommend Bald Ridge Creek Campground to anyone who values fair treatment, hospitality, or simple human kindness.

    Everything about this campground is great, from the beauty of Lake Lanier to the incredible sites…read moreand of course the professional management team that excels in your expectations! We have been happy campers here for the last 23 years. Thank you Cindy Farmer and team for your hospitality!

Plenty of options on the property with golf, pickle ball, game room and water park.

    I'm very surprised Lake Lanier has so few reviews. After all, it was one of the water sport venues…read moreof the 1996 Olympics, one of the most popular summertime destinations in the state. Most any warm season holiday is celebrated at Lake Lanier making it a popular place for vacation rental homes. Here you can go boating, fishing, swimming, hiking, golfing, as well as experience a fabulous fireworks show in the summer or Christmas lights and snow sleds in the winter. There is a spa, a beach, a waterpark, a luxury resort and good times @ Margaritaville. You can rent jet skis, go horseback riding, charter a fishing boat, rent a house boat, go camping or take a hot air balloon ride nearby. It was created by the completion of Buford Dam on the Chattahoochee River in 1956, and named for Confederate Army poet Sidney Lanier. Its primary purpose was for flood control and water supplies and has a water volume of about 1,049,400 acre-ft. The narrative will tell you its construction destroyed more than 50,000 acres of farmland and displaced more than 250 families, 15 businesses, and relocated 20 cemeteries along with their corpses in the process. But I want to pause here and dive a little deeper under the surface of its waters and introduce you to: [ OSCARVILLE, GEORGIA ] "The truth is rarely pure and never simple." ― Oscar Wilde Lake Lanier is partially located in Forsyth county. It is a county that prided itself on not having black residence so much that Oprah came to film an episode of her Emmy Award-winning talk show here in 1987 (trigger warning): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WErjPmFulQ0 The show makes mention that "no black person had lived in the county for 75 years", which was a direct reference to a predominantly African-American community known as Oscarville. It was home to 1,100 black people prior to a racial conflict in 1912 which was so brutally violent that it caused blacks to flee the county... even those who were landowners. "According to Elliot Jaspin, a historian and journalist quoted by the Digital Library of Georgia and the New Georgia Encyclopedia, only about 24 of the nearly 40 Black landowners in Forsyth County at the time were able to sell their land. The other properties have no record of sale, and some believe the abandoned land was simply taken by White residents." - The Times Oscarville began as a small farming town around 1870, but after so many fled the county in 1912, it was practically a ghost town. Those still claiming ownership of their land either had it seized or were "asked" to to forfeit their land to build the Buford Dam by Newport Dam Development according to an article published on April 6, 2021 by The Signal. Prior to the violence, Oscarville was actually known for its agricultural prowess in fighting off the boll weevil infestation that hindered many farm crops and enriching the soil with chicken feces. A technique that has been duplicated to this day to revive poor farming/gardening soil. "Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored." ― Aldous Huxley [ MUST WATCH ] Link to Oscarville | The Town Submerged by Lake Lanier (Intrigued Mind): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifMKfBO_R6s [ FINAL THOUGHTS ] Lake Lanier is a beautiful lake and a rich resource for Atlanta. It provides approx. 70% of the drinking water for Metro Atlanta as well as power, recreation and businesses. But there is more than what meets the eye as you look across its glistening surface. An entire town is buried by its waters and has been nearly forgotten, and the hard truth is this is not an isolated story. There are several other towns across the country who suffered the same fate. They include: Kowaliga (Benson), Alabama Seneca Village In New York City Susannah, Alabama and Vanport, Oregon The story of Lake Lanier and Oscarville will be featured in an upcoming TV series called Oscarville - Below the Surface. Here is the link to the trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVux8Y96cok Thanks for reading. 2022 / 59 #BlackHistorySeries

    Excellent water park in Lanier Islands. The wave pool is great, and the slides are fun as well…read more They have tubes that fit up to 2 riders but if you are over 100 pounds you can ride alone. The inflatable island and obstacle course looks great as well. We got the season pass and plan to return to try all that Margaritaville at Lanier Islands has to offer. Lastly, the snack shops are excellent and have great customer service and ice creams available. The souvenir shop seems like it's well stocked as well. I have nothing to fault Margaritaville for and consider this a 4.1 star rounded up because it's summer. Thank you to the staff and Lanier Islands for having such an awesome water park so close to home. 5 stars!

    I am a season pass holder at the water park, and I recently brought my son for our first visit of…read morethe season. While we always look forward to spending time at the park, I was disappointed by its overall condition. Many of the water slides had visible mildew on them, and I also noticed mildew on the metal roof of one of the snack shacks. More concerning, I witnessed a young teenager nearly step on a nail protruding from the concrete while waiting in line for the four slides that share the same platform. This poses a serious safety hazard and should be addressed immediately. We also tried to relax in the sand area beneath the awning above the beach, but it was clear the area had not been raked or cleaned this season. The sand was covered with sticks, leaves, acorns, and other debris, making it feel neglected. I hope this review reaches the appropriate person who can address these issues. The water park is a wonderful facility with so much potential, and I would hate to see it fall into disrepair.
