Located 6 miles north of Blakely. Off U.S. Hwy. 27 bypass take First or Second Kolomoki Road and follow brown park signs.
This small park was a perfect stop on our trek across Georgia. We went on a week day in December and there were very few people in the campground. The campsites were very nice, especially the ones right on the lakefront. We had a lovely walk exploring the mounds at sunset. They have a story walk trail and change the book each month. We could hear owls and saw an otter in the lake. Wish we had time for a kayak rental or museum tour! Actually, we tried to go on the museum when we arrived at about 415pm, but the kinda snippy ranger at the desk said we couldn't because she was about to close it, despite the sign that said open till 5. 🤷♀️ Other than that, all was great! Bathrooms were clean and showers were hot.
Absolutely beautiful park, hiking trails were nice, some areas a bit harder than others. Visit the museum, the film is very informative. The RV camping area has good size sites and the comfort stations for campers were clean, nothing spectacular but clean.
This is a beautiful State Park. We tent-camped at site #3 on the lake for 6 days. Make sure you have sturdy tent stakes and a metal hammer to get through the compacted rock on the pull-through drive. The campsite hosts were friendly and accommodating, and the Rangers and staff at the visitors center were great. Be sure to see the film and the museum, very informative! Firewood and ice are also available at the visitors' center.
We had a fantastic weekend camping at here.The natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere were truly refreshing. The campsite was well-maintained, and the facilities were clean. We enjoyed hiking the trails and had a great time by the campfire in the evenings.
Waking up to the serene view of the lake was a treat for the eyes and soul.
The campsite feels little congested should be more spacious.
Restroom was clean and well maintained.
Activities include swimming, kayaking, Paddle boating and nice trails.
