Chinquapin Group Campground has become a very special place for me and my entire family. We had our 1st family reunion there 4 years ago when my sister got married there. It was a great way for our family and my sisters spouse's family to really get to know each other. We stayed there for 5 days while we hiked the wilderness and went swimming in what we now call the swimming hole. I know that's not a grand name for this spot but when you go there you"ll understand. It's like a little piece of paradise where two streams of shallow waters into one and change directions. Right in the center of all if this is the swim hole. There is a deep spot for swimming or floating on a tube or mat. There also is a rope swing where many of our children have watched the older siblings jump and in later years conquer their fears doing the same. From below it looks scary and from what I hear it is scary from above. But after doing it once most of the kids are hooked. They absolutely love swing on the rope and continually challange themselves by taking it higher and higher. As for me I would rather play on what I call the little island. This just a small spot where you can put your blanket or towel down to soak in the sun and take some R&R. I almost dont wNt to tell other about how great this place is because I love it so much I dont want too many people to know about it because then it may be over run with people and not be our secret paradise. So if you find this camp sit and live it too, please take care of it. Did I mention that the campsite cost under 20 bucks a day.
