Georgia Veterans State Park was established in 1946 as a memorial to U.S. veterans. Located on the banks of Lake Blackshear in Crisp County, the 1,308 acre park offers an array of recreational activities and historical experiences.

Other activities include an archery and air gun range, a hummingbird and butterfly garden, a disc golf course and an outdoor fitness center. 

The Georgia Veterans Memorial Golf Course and the Military Museum pay tribute to U.S. service members from the Revolutionary War through the present day. The museum features outdoor and indoor exhibits showcasing jets, tanks, a helicopter, uniforms, weapons and aircraft, including a Boeing B-29A.

The 18-hole golf course has picturesque views and affordable prices. The SAM Shortline Excursion Train runs through the park on its way from Cordele to Plains.
