This is a very beautiful park and the staff are so friendly and helpful, and what I truly appreciate about the staff and community is that they are very inclusive and welcoming to everyone. This is a great place to camp right out of your car if you prefer. The check in was easy, you can do it by phone or in person, now finding the primitive camping spots were a bit tricky at first. One of the easiest way to find it is go down straight past the check in area, then past a large cabin, when you see the road spit into three, go to the left, you will see spots with gravel suitable for one car, a fire pit and one table, they are really spaced out so you will get lots of privacy! its gated, safe area, and there is a creek and walking trials one 1mile the other 2mi, the bathhouse has a shower with warm water! Walk to the one that is near the creek side its easier to get to from the camping sites. There were not many people camping during the week so you will get much peace and quiet. Check it out, I highly recommend, have fun...
Read moreBy the scenic Chattahoochee River with beautiful lookout deck, (you can drive right up to it) plenty of woods & hiking foot trails. Horse trails and nearby horse rental service available. (Foot trails are not paved) Rustic campsites available among shady pine trees near a rocky outcropping - great for photo opportunities. Use caution if driving a small car with low clearance in the camping areas as those are not paved and there are a few rocks or muddy hazards. Playground & splash area for kids, open mowed firlds for romping, historic 2 story cabin (empty/ not furnished) open to public to explore. Great place to hike or picnic. NO swimming allowed in large river, it's too dangerous. A small $5 fee per vehicle at ranger station gets you in all day or buy an annual Carroll County parks pass for $40 which is good for one year till the last day of the month you buy it in. (Example: If you buy it on March 1st, its good till next year through March 31st) Hours vary slightly but tend to coincide with...
Read moreBeautiful park, quiet, clean bathrooms, pond to fish in, large pavilion areas, well maintained. The playground area is fairly basic with climbing & slides, there aren’t any swings at all. They say they have a splash pad, it was not in use when I was there but it was also April and still chilly when the sun went down. It costs $5.00 when you enter the park. The call it a parking fee. You can park at the playground area or at your rented pavilion space. The rental fees are very reasonable and the parking fee is $5.00 per carload. The pavilion we used had a fire pit and basketball goal (although no pad) as well. The signs to navigate to your pavilion can be a bit difficult to figure out, even more so, which pavilion is which because it is not easy to see the numbers on them from the roadway. The staff at the front gate was very friendly & helpful explaining directions but finding the actual pavilion was still a bit difficult. Over all, I really liked this park and most definitely...
