Hosting with Georgia State Parks

Come to a state park in Georgia, chances are, the first people you see in the campground are our hosts. The campground host program is one of our most popular volunteer opportunities. In exchange for a free campsite and utilities for your RV or motorhome, hosts serve the park and the public. Retired couples often find it an ideal way to spend a few months. Hosts commit to a minimum of 2 months and up to a maximum of 6 months. Hosts contribute a minimum of 24 hours per week per couple. We require hosts to register with us to be insured and to submit and clear criminal background checks for all participants in the hosting program.
