Callaway Gardens - Pine Mountain GA
#ilovervlife #callawaygardens #pinemountain Joan and I have been on a nature kick recently. Usually happens every year with everything in bloom and the desire to experience all Spring has to offer after a cold Winter. We visited Callaway Gardens located in Pine Mountain GA after stopping for a week in nearby FDR State Park and Campground. This is a great place to spend a day enjoying the beautiful gardens, bike and hiking trails and most of all, the butterfly house.
Callaway Gardens is a fun destination. Joan and I spent this Spring day walking the many trails and gardens. I wish I had brought the bikes. There are miles of paved trails throughout the Gardens that would have made touring even more fun. Aside from enjoying all the outdoor sites, we visited a log cabin, the Discovery Center and the Butterfly Center. There was so much to do, we just ran out of time to see and do many of the activities offered.
One of our favorites was the Butterfly Center. We had so much fun walking around the atrium surrounded butterflies of all colors and shapes. I had to laugh at my video. While editing, I sounded like a little kid walking around. Needless to say, we had so much fun!
The Gardens offer year round golf, summer has a large beach and pavilion area, in the winter the Festival of Lights is a treat, along with a full calendar of activities from photography, gardening, fly fishing, and a wide ranges of other classes.
Callaway Gardens is a great destination. Hope you get a change to add to you RV travels.

Callaway Gardens, Fantasy in Lights, Christmas Eve, Pine Mountain, Georgia, USA, North America
Callaway Gardens hosts several seasonal events. On Memorial weekend, the gardens host the Masters Water Ski & Wakeboard Tournament. The gardens also hosts the Sky High Hot Air Balloon Festival on Labor Day weekend and a steeplechase on the first Saturday of November. Fantasy in Lights, a Christmas light display, takes place in November and December. Callaway Gardens is a 13,000 acres (53 km2) resort complex located in Pine Mountain, Georgia, just outside of Columbus, Georgia. The resort draws over 750,000 visitors annually. Callaway Gardens was founded in 1952 by Cason J. and Virginia Hand Callaway to promote and protect native azalea species. His son, Bo Callaway, helped develop and run the garden. Today, Callaway Gardens features a wide variety of recreational attractions including a large enclosed butterfly habitat, the Cecil B. Day Butterfly Center, and the John Sibley Horticultural Center, known for its wide variety of cultivars and native plants. The native palm Sabal minor maintains one of its northernmost populations in the area. The garden was originally conceived in 1930 after Cason J. Callaway discovered a rare azalea growing in the area. Callaway Gardens opened on May 21, 1952 as the Ida Cason Gardens, with a number of lakes, a golf course, and scenic drives. The gardens were named for the mother of founder Cason J. Callaway. Robin Lake Beach and the Overlook Azalea Garden opened the following year in 1953. In 1955, The gardens were renamed Ida Cason Callaway Gardens. The Masters Water-ski Tournament, now an annual event, held its first competition in 1959. On April 12, 1961, founder Cason J. Callaway died and was succeeded as Chairman of the Board by his wife, co-founder Virginia Hand Callaway. The gardens have experienced numerous expansions following Cason Callaway's death. The Cason J. Callaway Memorial Forest opened in 1972, and was designated a National Natural Landmark by the United States Department of the Interior. The John A. Sibley Horticultural Center opened in 1984. Mr. Cason's Vegetable Garden was the location for years of TV shows about growing vegetable gardens, most notably the southern edition of The Victory Garden. The annual Steeplechase at Callaway Gardens ran its first race in 1985. The Cecil B. Day Butterfly Center opened on September 25, 1988. Fantasy in Lights, a Christmas light display, debuted in 1992. In 1999, the Azalea Bowl opened as well as the premiere of the Sky High Hot Air Balloon Festival. In 2000, the Virginia Hand Callaway Discovery Center was opened. The garden has several trails both for walking and biking. The Discover Bike Trail, a 10-mile (16 km) trail that weaves through the wooded gardens, provides guests access to all attractions. Robin Lake Beach is the world's largest man-made, white sand beach. The beach stretches a mile around 65-acre (260,000 m2) Robin Lake. Robin Lake Beach is opened from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day Weekend. The Florida State University Flying High Circus have taken up residence at the beach every summer since 1961. During the summer, the circus conducts a recreation program and performs seven shows weekly under the big top adjacent to the beach. The Cecil B. Day Butterfly Center, named after the founder of Days Inns of America, Inc., opened to the public on September 25, 1988. Mrs. Deen Day Sanders, Cecil Day's wife, provided the initial funding for the center. In 2004, the center earned a LEED certification. In 2005, the Day Butterfly Center underwent a $2 million renovation to accommodate more visitors. The conservatory is maintained at approximately 80ºF and 74% relative humidity. The center has 1,000 butterflies representing over 50 species. The butterflies are received in the pupa stage (or chrysalis) from Malaysia, the Philippines and Central and South America. Because the butterflies are considered to be invasive species, an inward blast of air is shot by a machine at the doorway to prevent any butterfly breakouts. As of 2011, Callaway Gardens has two golf courses in operation. Lake View golf course was opened on May 21, 1952, the same day the gardens opened. The Mountain View golf course, designed in 1965, hosted the Buick Challenge from 1991 to 2002. In 2001, Buick pulled its sponsorship of the tournament because of low attendance and little network coverage. A third golf course, Gardens View golf course, was opened in 1969 but was closed in 2002. Callaway Gardens hosts several seasonal events. On Memorial weekend, the gardens host the Masters Water Ski & Wakeboard Tournament. The gardens also hosts the Sky High Hot Air Balloon Festival on Labor Day weekend and a steeplechase on the first Saturday of November. Fantasy in Lights, a Christmas light display, takes place in November and December.

FDR State Park - Pine Mountain GA
#ilovervlife #fdrstatepark #campingingeorgia FDR State Park and Campground is a located in Pine Mountain, GA, just minutes for I-185 and Columbus, GA. The camping area are made up of a number of loops with camp site ranging from spacious wooded lots to those with a great view of Lake Delanor. The campground was very clean, lot sizes were reasonable, a number of small play grounds, water craft rentals, and several large bath houses The sites have water and electric with some having both 30 amp and 50 amp hookup. No sewer, but a large dump station is located at the back entrance leaving the campground. The roads are paved and the lots were graveled and level. All sites had picnic tables and fire rings and most had large spaces in between. There were a mix of back-in and pull-through sites and we saw a wide range of campers from tents to large 40 foot or larger 5th wheels and class A's.
We arrive around 2:30PM on a Sunday with reservations. Good news, with the State of Georgia's new reservation system, you can view the campground map and reserve your space. Reservations are recommended during the busier vacation periods, with the 100+ campground sites filling up quickly.
This is a great area for tour and hike. The Pine Mountain Trails are minutes away offering over 40 miles of trails along with primitive camping for those overnight jaunts. The valley views from the Pine Mountain Ridge are fantastic. There's much to do around the Park. Summer months provide a large swimming pool and picnic area, house back riding, also within a 10 minute drive is The Little White House in Warm Springs, GA. This is well worth the small fee to tour and history buffs will have a field day. The little town Warm Springs is nearby with shops and a few eateries.
Also 5 minutes east of the campground back entrance lies the town of Pine Mountain. Grocery stores, hardware, Dollar whatever were available along with an excellent Mexican restaurant, Oyster House, Fox Pizza (yummy) and others . And a destination into itself, Callaway Gardens offers golf, water recreation, hiking and biking, garden tours, and my favorite, the butterfly house.

Callaway Blue
The 1,000-acre watershed surrounding the unique quartzite aquifer that supplies Blue Springs was purchased by Cason and Virginia Callaway around 1930. The previous New York state owner had not been able to realize his dream of supplying the city of Columbus with water from this spring and another nearby.
In 1937, President Franklin D. Roosevelt commissioned studies of native springs in the area including Warm Springs and Blue Springs. This report includes the description of the 100-mile long vein of quartzite rock that encloses Blue Springs, originating near Hollis Crossroads, Alabama.
The flow rate of Blue Springs at that time was measured at approximately 350 gallons per minute. Since then, it has been measured as high as 500 gallons per minute.
President Roosevelt visited Blue Springs several times and this beautiful place has hosted other dignitaries, both political and horticultural, since that time. The area surrounding the spring is home to several varieties of native azaleas as well as abundant mature Mountain Laurel, Rhododendron, ferns of many species, and mature timber such as sycamore, white oak, poplar and longleaf pine. The secluded area is now protected by the Cason Callaway, Jr. family, who are committed to maintaining the pristine nature of the spring's environment.
Camp Callaway Model Cabin
Carolina Jessamine is a rustic jewel box Callaway Gardens cabin nestled into a nature forest with minimal landscaping. The EarthCraft Eco-friendly cabin was built with attention to detail by Pine Mountain Builders and thoughtfully decorated by Elizabeth Spangler.
Creating lasting memories with loved ones for generations.
