Located off I-75 in middle Georgia,
Indian Springs is thought to be the oldest state park in the nation. It was acquired by the state in 1825 and became an official
"State Forest Park" in 1927. The Creek Indians used the springs for centuries to heal the sick and impart extra vigor to the
well. During the 1800s, the area was a bustling resort town. Today, visitors can still sample the spring water while enjoying
the park's cottages, camping, swimming, fishing and boating. Many structures within the park, such as the spring house, were
built during the Great Depression by members of FDR's Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC).
