Life can be so stressful, can’t it? We all just want to get away sometimes. Whether you’re having family issues, you’re sick of your job, or are just feeling the wanderlust bug, it’s normal to feel the need to escape at times. The next time you’re looking for a middle-of-nowhere getaway, we’ve got just the spot for you in South Georgia. Seminole State Park is tucked away in the far southwest corner of the state, right on the border with Florida, and if you ask us, it’s one of the most underrated state parks in Georgia. It doesn’t get much more quiet or tranquil than this 604-acre park, and it’s one of the most peaceful places around for a private getaway.

The park's crowning jewel is Lake Seminole, a 37,500-acre reservoir where you can boat or fish. There's a small sandy beach if you'd like to relax by the water's edge.
