This is a party park, beer bottles caps all over each site. The low lifes on site 6 were up until 3am. There hearing must go bad when they drink because the more they drank the the louader they got and higher the radio volume got. 09/08/2019 . The outhouse toilet seat are very low to the floor. Very hard to get off the pot if you have bad knees. Never did find the boat launch, banks along Back Creek very steep to walk down. Good luck. Wilson State Park is suppose to manage this park, all they do is collect the money from the steel post at the registration box and leave.
The entrance has the permits right at the front. Its a manless stand where you fill out the permit place it in the window and put the money in the associated envelope of your permit. The campsites are pretty spacious. There is a dumpster. A water fountain and onsite porterpotties. Great trees for hammocks. The water isn't swimmable but located within 10 mins are water access points. Campsite 4 is downhill and we got flooded and had to divert water but it was warm the rain didn't stop us from having a blast
