Cassidy Bridge Hunt Camp
The Cassidy Bridge Hunt Camp is located in a nicely wooded area along the banks of the Chauga River, one of the popular fishing streams on the district.
During big-game and turkey hunting seasons, the campground is opened free of charge. During the rest of the year, the camp is available by reservation. Families like to reserve the camp for reunions, cookouts and camp outs. When the campground is reserved, the general public is not allowed to use the site.
Surrounding area: The Chattooga River and commercial river outfitters are within 15 minutes.
