About

Hester's Ferry campground is on Clark Hill and it is a great location to get away from it all. Escape the hustle and bustle of the city by visiting the town and enjoying the shaded campsites on the lake, just a few miles away. It is known to be one of the best fishing on Thurmond Lake. The sites are on the water. Water and electrical hook ups are available at sites 1-16. There are ten primitive sites in a separate loop.
