Rep. Marcus Wiedower Announces Extended Booking Window for Georgia Residents at State Parks

ATLANTA - State Representative Marcus Wiedower (R-Watkinsville), chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on General Government, announces that Georgia residents will now have an extended booking window of 14 months in advance for accommodations at sites operated by Georgia State Parks and Historic Sites. This initiative, championed by Georgia's Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and Chairman Wiedower, allows local residents to book one month earlier than out-of-state visitors, providing them with greater flexibility and convenience in planning their outdoor adventures.

"This initiative guarantees Georgia residents priority access to our state's natural gems, and I'm honored to collaborate with Georgia's Department of Natural Resources in establishing this extension," said Chairman Wiedower. "I encourage all Georgians to take advantage of this extended booking window. Now, it will be easier for families to plan their outdoor adventures, create lasting memories and continue the traditions of enjoying our state parks for generations to come."

The extended booking window includes access to newly renovated full hookup campsites at Vogel, historic Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) cottages at F.D. Roosevelt and yurts at Cloudland Canyon, among other facilities across the state.

Representative Marcus Wiedower represents the citizens of District 121, which includes portions of Clarke and Oconee counties. He was elected to the House of Representatives in 2018 and currently serves as the Chairman of the Appropriations Subcommittee on General Government.
