Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia, Andrew developed a profound love for the outdoors during his childhood spent exploring the lakes and rivers in the picturesque mountains of Northwest Georgia and Western North Carolina. This formative experience ignited his lifelong passion for nature and laid the foundation for his commitment to preserving and enhancing the natural beauty of outdoor recreational properties. Andrew’s hobbies include hiking, golfing, fishing, tennis, nature photography, and landscaping, all of which allow him to immerse himself in the natural environments he works diligently to enhance.

Crystal Lester
Crescent Fish Camp
Born and raised a city girl, I have recently embraced a new chapter of my life as I transition to the peacefulness of lake living, I’ve mastered the art of loving plants, even if they don’t always reciprocate the sentiment. As a newbie to the camp life by the lake, I’m like a fish out of water—figuratively, of course – Balancing the art of managing a lake campground and performing back-breaking manual labor is like juggling flaming marshmallows—it requires finesse, resilience, and a high tolerance for hilarity. So, prepare for an adventure filled with laughter, quirky anecdotes, and the occasional well-intentioned chaos, as we navigate the campgrounds together!

Wilderness Cove
Hello! My name is Susan Mckissick and I am the General Manager at Wilderness Cove Campground. A Florida native, I love spending time on the beach and paddling the ocean. I never thought I would leave the beach, but working here has allowed me to be outdoors, live by a river and share my love of the outdoors with others who share the same passion! I can’t wait to meet you in the great outdoors at Wilderness Cove and help you make the most of your adventure!
