Ocmulgee RiverFest

Spend a lazy day at the river, enjoying food, family fun, music and more! Delight in experiencing our picturesque small town on the Ocmulgee River. Nourish your soul with the Southern-fried feeling of being home & make memories to last a lifetime.

A 25-acre waterfront park located just south of Hawkinsville on the Ocmulgee River, Mile Branch Park features a number of nature trails, picnic shelters, a playground and a boat ramp.
