This is a funny little park, just a gravel parking lot with RV hookups in the middle of an RV dealers lot. It is right off I-40, but the lot full of huge RV's for sale seemed to deaden the noise somewhat. The manager was extremely nice, volunteering the procedure for tornado alerts, and the restrooms and showers were clean and well set up. It was within easy walking distance of a nice restaurant, The Catfish Hole. This is not an RV resort; it a place to spend the night while traveling. As such, it was just about average. Low marks for the ambiance; high marks for cleanliness and convenience. We camped here in a Class B, accompanied by friends in a 5th-wheeler.
We reluctantly registered to camp here on July 3. The manager did not take credit cards, and required more information on our check than we were really comfortable giving. After registration we learned that the restrooms had burned and the showers and toilets were in the basement of the owners house, down a steep incline. Since these facilities were located a significant distance from our assigned campsite, we asked for our check back and did not stay.
We camped here several nights while touring Gros Morne NP. Since we were in a small camper (Class B -van), we had a beautiful shaded site with lots of privacy. The sites for the big rigs were less desirable. All of the facilities were clean and well kept. There is no longer a restaurant on the premises. We would definitely stay there again.
This is a very basic camping facility, but it was a good place to spend the night and the restrooms were clean. They did have a "boil water" order when we were there. There were only two campers in the campground that night. I have paid a great deal more to stay in worse places and would stay there again if in the area. We felt safe and comfortable.
This is a very nice park. The owner was super helpful and hospitable. We enjoyed the walking trails and watching the sunset from a beautiful viewing area. I highly recommend it for those seeking a quiet, peaceful environment.
It was still cool when we camped here but the campground was about half full. Very nice sites, well-spaced. The bathrooms were clean but could use some repair. The Park itself is outstanding; Great Falls of the Caney Fork River, and a very historical area. This is a great base camp for folks who like to hike and look at waterfalls as the area is full of them. Burgess Falls State Park (no camping) is nearby and it is a short drive to many others.
We camped here on a cold winter weekend. Only two loops were open and there were a total of four campers in the entire park, although there was a group from UT in the group area. The restrooms in loop D are new and were very clean and heated, but we could not camp there because it was reservations only. (There was one pop-up camper there). The restrooms in our loop were old but were clean and functional. The area is beautiful and we enjoyed the trails very much. The campground was certainly adequate.
This is one super state park! Like most Florida parks it is beautifully laid out to maximize privacy. The rangers here are just top notch, very helpful and knowledgable. Facilities are always clean and everything works! The free shuttle for the St. Augustine sightseeing train will stop at the main gate if you (or a ranger) calls ahead. Buy a ticket for the train and you can ride around all day.
We use this campground as our "break" between NC and St. Augustine, FL as we use US 441 for the trip. It is always clean and quiet with good facilities. There are lots of opportunites for walking or biking. There is a golf course, lodge, etc. on the State Park grounds as well, but the camping area is near the lake and is separate from those facilities. They rent canoes, bicycles, and pedal boats. There is a swimming pool for lodge, cottage, and campground guests only.
This is a surprisingly nice, little campground off US 19 between Albany and Thomasville, GA. (It is actually at Ochlocknee, GA). Spacious sites are arranged among pine trees and are level. The restrooms were exceptionally clean and each one is a separate unit (toilet, basin, tub or shower) that opened onto a central porch. It is close to the highway, but noise was not an issue. Opportunities for walking were limited (just around the campground circle). We stay here overnight on our way from NC to Tallahassee,FL and have never had a problem with just pulling in and finding a campsite, but have not been here in the summer.
Although the Woodall's advertisement claimed 62 sites, they only had one "overnight" site and it was by Highway 90 "on the grass, beside the fence". A hole had been cut in the fence for the electrical cord and the water hose. We did not hook up the water because the faucet was bent. No sewer connection was available at this site. The women's restroom was locked and when I got the key and opened it, I decided to pass it up and returned the key. It did not look as if anyone had been in there in a long time. Our "site" was just a grassy area but we were fortunate that it was distanced from the rows and rows of other RV's set up for semi-permanent living by construction workers on a nearby electrical utility project. We ran our fan all night to drown out the noise from the very nearby highway. Despite all this, the lady who registered us was very nice and we had a good night's sleep. This is a very old campground, I remember it from the '60's when it was called Bell's Lakeside Campground. I believe it was safe, we did have electricity, and we had an appointment to have our RV worked on at 7:30 the next morning just two miles down the road. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it.
