Modoc Campground is located on J. Strom Thurmond Lake, only five miles from the Lake Thurmond Visitor Center and Dam. The 70,000+ acre lake and 1,000+ miles of shoreline are prime for boating, water skiing, swimming, fishing, kayaking, hiking, biking and bird watching. Thurmond Lake provides some of the best fishing, hunting and water sports in the southeastern United States. Anglers fish for largemouth bass, bream, crappie, catfish and striped bass. The gatehouse has friendly camp hosts and information about the campground and local area. Four bathhouses spread throughout the campground have flush toilets and showers, and the boat ramp and courtesy dock are conveniently placed with lots of parking. There is a playground on the first loop with a bathhouse conveniently next to it, a shaded hiking trail that winds through the campground showcasing the beautiful pine and hardwood trees, and a dump station and dumpsters. Modoc sits on the shoreline surrounded with a mix of pine and hardwood trees which offer shade and visual interest. Wildlife is abundant around the lake — visitors regularly see southern bald eagles, migratory waterfowl, neo-tropical birds, wild turkeys and whitetail deer. Average temperatures during the camping season start out at 76 degrees Fahrenheit and peak in July at 91 degrees; May receives the least amount of rainfall on average, with increased rainfall in June, July and August. Many Corps-managed day-use areas within 10 miles admit registered campers free with a campground hangtag pass, and within five miles campers may visit the dam, Visitor Center and various trails. Nearby cities house museums, art galleries, zoos, restaurants and shopping areas, and the Augusta National Golf Club hosts the Masters Golf Tournament annually the first week of April.
