Hardridge Creek Campground is situated on the shores of Walter F. George Lake on the Georgia and Alabama border. The lake is a great place to get away for a week, a weekend or just an afternoon.
Boating, swimming, fishing and camping are popular activities.
The Chattahoochie River lakes are an angler's paradise, where largemouth bass, white bass, hybrids, crappie, channel catfish and bream are found. The lake's 640 miles of shoreline offer many excellent locations for bank fishing, and a boat ramp is conveniently located nearby.
The lake and its surrounding forests provide a great locale for hiking, hunting or simply observing wildlife.
This recently upgraded campground offers 74 sites, 55 of which have electric and water hookups. Buddy sites that can accommodate up to 16 people each are also available.
Amenities include flush toilets, showers, drinking water, laundry facilities and a dump station.
Walter F. George Lake, sometimes called Lake Eufaula, stretches 85 miles up the Chattahoochee River. Visitors come to relax and play among the natural beauty of the area.
The lands surrounding the lake are forested with dense stands of mixed hardwoods. A wide variety of wildlife is commonly seen, including waterfowl, deer, squirrels, rabbits, eagles, hawks, bobcats and dozens of species of songbirds.
The historic towns of Eufaula, Alabama and Cuthbert, Georgia are nearby. Eufaula boasts more than 20 structures and districts listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Beautiful antebellum mansions are located throughout both towns.
Site 67/68 need to be changed to $48 per night being that its a buddy site. 2 sites.
From Eufaula, Alabama, take US 431 south. Turn left on SR-95, then turn left on CR-97 and continue for 10 miles. Follow signs into campground.
Enjoyed our visit. My lot was nice and shady, steps from the water.
Several different "sections" with something for everyone.
Some of the sections seemed a little tight, but there were some sizeable rigs in there, so it is doable.
My wife and I are still here on a little weekend getaway (only 65 miles from home), and so far we've really been enjoying it. We're at site 69 and it's very nice, probably the highest spot in the park, not really sure. We got one of the spots with a full hookup and it was only $28 per night. Great deal as far as I'm concerned.
When we got here yesterday we were greeted by a very nice lady and a gentleman (not born in the south...lol), they were both great to us as lomg as you understand people's personalities can be different depending on where you're from. A review I read said they were rude, (and I can see that) it could be taken that way if you're not used to people being blunt and to the point. Anyway, the site has a large (double or even triple some we've been in and it's been very well maintained. Unless something changes, I feel like we will be back pretty soon.
I visited the HARDRIDGE CREEK campground in Alabama, where I found the campsites to be roomy and some with picturesque waterfront views. The swimming area was inviting, but I decided against taking a dip due to the time of year. (February) Unfortunately, my interaction with one set of camp hosts left me feeling unimpressed as they seemed irritable and unwelcoming. I had a problem with the washer and the camp host said it wasn’t her problem (even though the sign in the laundry area stated to speak to a camp host with issues). They told me to go to a different washer and dryer. I explain they should put a sign on the washer. They never mention to me how I shall get my $$ back so I could re-wash my items. And before this situation happened during check in she was rude with me. They need to get some more pleasant workers or something. ( a older couple was the camp host at this time. I didn’t get their names otherwise I would post it)
