    Coleman Lake Rec Area

    Quiet, friendly, and affordable

    We spent one night here on the way down to Florida. It is first come first serve and we had no issue finding a space on a Thursday. The lake and surrounding area are full of birds and wildlife. The sites are well maintained, level, with clean bathrooms. So happy we stumbled on this national forest campground!

    No cell service. Poorly marked trail around the lake, still worth checking out! Just follow the lake!

    Lake Life

    This is a great camping spot with a beautiful lake. The trail around the lake was perfect. Caught 3 bass in the lake. You can't beat the price.

    Sandrock Sanctuary

    I’ve camped at Cherokee Rock Village (affectionately known as Sandrock to the locals) since 2011, starting back when it was still largely undeveloped and free…totally worth paying for these days - they’ve made it such a great place: showers, bathrooms, dumpsters, plenty of walk-in and car camping sites. Best climbing in the southeast, bouldering and sport, and a lot of RC car rock crawling, etc. Sandrock is a must go-to spot in Alabama. The views are awesome, climbing is awesome & camping is awesome. Charcoal grills at most sites, fire rings, firewood available at the front gate/office, etc. Good Verizon coverage, too. Plenty of gas stations and grocery stores within 20min, too.

    Great "Away From It All" Camping

    Great campground. Secluded with electrical and water hookups. Make sure you use Highway 78 to enter. Google Maps will send you on a 11.5 mile mountain trail ( Dugger Mountain Road) that is a dirt 2 track over the mountain...an interesting trip with a camper. The campground is very well maintained. The bath house is very clean and up to date. Sites are level and we'll spaced

    Great campsites at a fantastic price

    Beautiful campsites near a small lake. Very quiet. Forest Service campground with electric and water. $16 a night or $10 with senior pass. No cell service- a big plus for me!

    Beautiful Campsites!

    We were so lucky Dyrt recommended this campground! It was perfect! We have a class B. The cost was $18/night for 2 of us. You choose any campsite that is available. They are not numbered, but they are clearly identifiable. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. Very well maintained. Staff very friendly too.

    Well-equipped campground by a pretty lake

    Popular campground with 39 sites, water & electric, flush toilets and shower. $16/nt. Overflow area has no hookups. Lake is pretty and fish are accommodating. We had site #30, and did not feel crowded at all despite the campground being full. County Rd 500 was overgrown and twisty. Presence of 35’ trailers suggests there’s a better way in (maybe FS500 or FS548?)

    Overflow for tents

    First time here. Clean camp, clean restrooms, great scenery. Main two loops are really for campers/RVs and are really close together with little privacy but have water and electricity. We ended up checking out the “overflow” area - didnt know it existed - and those campsites are more primitive, no water or electricity but have fire rings and pea gravel. Overflow is more spacious and private. Our spot was right above the lake. Main two loops are $16 and overflow is $6. The overflow is on the right as you pull in the campground - some people had campers up there but definitely the spot if you are tent camping. Had a great time, will return!

    Very nice campground with FHU for $16

    Beautiful, mostly shaded sites. My site, #7 had a path that led right down to the lake. Very nice bath house with shower and flushing toilets. Has a Beach area and playground in the day use area.

    Update

    One of my favorite spots for climbing and car camping in the state. They have both top rope and sport climbing routes, as well as a first, come first serve campground. The bathrooms are always clean and there are tons of spaces to set up a tent. If you go in the spring or fall the weather is perfect.

    Beautiful area

    We enjoyed our stay here. We stayed in our boondocking trailer. Site was well prepped. Easy to find. Only issues at all was showers had no hot water that night and the local drink around at night drinking crowd was little aggravating. Will definitely go back regardless.

    Quiet and comfortable camping experience

    Nice little lake to play on and around. Very family and pet friendly. Restrooms and showers exceptionally clean. Not alot of paid spots with water electricity and first come first serve so no reservations. Plenty of dispersed throughout the area though.

    Well Maintained, Perfect Get Away

    Heard about this place from a co-worker and I was not disappointed.

    Check in is easy, either call and leave a deposit or drive up and pay. They let you peruse the sites before paying which was nice.

    Hosts stop by to introduce themselves and how to contact them if needs arise.

    Everything is well maintained from the roads, campsites, unpaved trails, and bathrooms. I was impressed with how clean everything was despite being a campground.

    Trails are great for running or just nice stroll, and there is a small lake onsite that could be used to fish with convenient benches around it.

    The only downside would be that the campground is close to a highway, so occasionally there will be loud subs or burnouts, but not to the point that I’d remove a star.

    Overall great experience and will be camping here frequently.

    Awesome RV Park in Carroll County GA!!

    Great RV park that is owned and ran by the county. We stayed in the horse camp section because the RV area was full. They use the horse camp area as overflow. Plenty of space there with power and water. Sewer hookup is only available in the RV section. Tons of walking/horse trails to go along with a creek and a couple of lakes.

    Even a Snow day

    We checked in and I was impressed with the reception, she worked with me to get everything right. Spot was not far from the bath house. And My only issue was the noise of another group of people halfway through my stay.

    Convienient, clean, and quiet

    We stayed here in June and wanted to go climbing. They have an envelop/cash payment system so make sure you have cash. Super clean bathrooms, hot showers, and a tub basin to wash dishes. There is a community area with a playground and picnic tables as well. Our campsite had a fire ring, a grill, and a picnic table. It backed up to the climbing area and we could walk down the trail to the climbing from our site. We would definitely stay here again.

    Nice weekend trip

    I took my 6 and 8 year old girls, tent camped 2 nights. We had a great trip. This is a great place for kids to hike/climb/ explore. My kids are accustomed to 6+ hrs in the heat everyday, so it wasn’t an issue. Nice and cool/breezy at night this time of year. The park has a close bathhouse with attached dishwash station and they have a drinking water tap right in the middle of the campsites. Be aware of you go on the weekend you may encounter groups that do not observe quiet hours. I do not recall being near campers that loud + music in my 30 years of camping/ backpacking, but I still do not regret going. Just looking forward to getting some sleep tonight back home. Did not climb this trip- needed another adult- but would definitely go back to do so. Climbing was clearly the biggest draw and the views from our campsite were amazing. Camp store staff were helpful and answered all my questions when I called prior to the trip.

    Very good!

    Coleman Lake Campgrounds is a really nice campground with clean bathhouses, paved roads, relatively flat camp sites, great bike and hiking trails, and big lake for fishing and swimming. Lots of things to keep the kids entertained or just a quiet getaway for the adults.

    Nice County park

    Stayed for two weeks while working in Villa Rica. Park is quite and well kept. Has nice paved walking/bike trails and well kept natural trails. One trail follows the Tallapoosa River with areas that have benches. Pond and lake are a bust for fishing. Doesn’t seen as if stock was kept up. Has only one washer and dryer and very nice bathhouse. Would stay again if we had to come back.

    Nice county park

    Nice big spaced out spots, that offer full hook ups. Friendly staff, good hiking trails, creeks for kids to play in. Pull through and back in paved sites. They also offer tent sites.

    Cons - have to call to book, weekend campers destroyed bathhouses, and lack of cleaning crew
