Best Campgrounds near Chattahoochee, FL

Nice free camping area on water mgt land. Reservations must be made online. Sites all have firepits, picnic tables under a shelter and some have a grill grate. There are three tent sites that are a very short walk with the furthest being a double picnic shelter length. The other spots are drive up and can accommodate a roof top tent or small rv. There is a boat ramp And a sandy swimming/fishing area in clear water.

Remote campground that has fishing and off-roading opportunities. I like that it’s free, but they also have fire rings and tables unlike the hunt camps. The shelters are all on the wrong side for RV’s expect for one spot. We were the only people here in early August. The camping area gets very boggy when it rains. No trash cans but they do have a pit toilet. I’ve never seen TP stocked in it though so bring your own.

A small beautiful park. Boat ramp, dump station and showers. Docks by many sites. Check size of site. Some can be tight. Water and electric.

The last 2 miles of the entry road is unpaved. There are 2 areas next to each other for dispersed camping. About 10-15 campers total when we were there. Some people look like they live there (chain link fences). Quiet. Port-a-potty but didn’t use it.

I’m a tent camper. The CG isn’t very big and the sites are close to each other but fortunately, it doesn’t seem to be too popular and there was only one other camper besides me so it was fine. This place is used mostly as a boat launch into the river (no nature trails or much to do really). Port o potty like toilets but no showers, water, or electricity, very basic camping. The host is a very laid back nice man. Quite affordable at $10 night. Good for a short quiet stay.

Very clean, easy in and out sites. Excellent BBQ restaurant within walking distance. Highly recommend. Entrance and office marked well. Would stay again if in the area.

Nice spot for a quick getaway from city life. It’s near hunting and lots of road noise from the nearby bridge but overall it’s a nice overnight getaway from the daily grind. There’s toilets and a non potable spigot to clean off personal items.

Very pleasant with a lakeside view. Our site didn’t have any shade but the adjoining site, with friends, had plenty. Sites were absolutely level with gravel. Plenty of room between and little noise. The only drawback was that the bathrooms were up and over the hill and road. But they were clean. Boat ramp is just down the road. If you want to bike, be warned that this area of Georgia/Florida has hills! Finally, it is in the eastern time zone with the dividing line in the middle of the lake.

We were evacuated, hurricane Milton, and found this as the last place that had a place only four of the spots have electrical. It’s very very backwards, camping, huge mosquitoes, huge bugs, alligators in the lake, bear boxes and bear meat racks, the road to it is terrible very very bumpy like driving over a river. You need to be almost in an off-road SUV vehicle to get to it and it’s 2 miles… Once you get there it’s just downright scary! The only good thing that we found out out of this is that there is an unknown RV park 10 miles down the road off of Bristol called River Landing RV park because they’re not listed on any of the pages so far we didn’t find them. But you can look them up online. I don’t know if I’ll be allowed to post their link here but if so, here it is. https://riverlandingrvpark.com/ Even the host of the other place sent us here

This campground is so pretty! I think we have the best spot because we’re in the shade for about half of the day. The lake is really pretty and relaxing to sit by. The bathhouses are a bit on the older side, I know funding is not there to do much. We have a big, beautiful tree behind out site that we sat under. There was a nice breeze coming off the lake and it was great (even though it’s 94° out). The camp host came over to us the next day after we arrived and gave us great info about things to do and see around here. That was so very nice! We rode our bikes to the dam and then to the park that’s on the other side of the bridge.

We do need to talk about that huge hill getting down to the campground. Holy moly. I’m from southern Florida and we don’t have those near us. 🤣 It was intimidating to say the least. lol

Yes, we use the showers at the campground because we have kids and we like to spread out in a shower. Plus we don’t want to fill up our tank, go dump and then hook back up. That’s our preference and that’s what we like to do.

This cg is a great small one. It has three small loops. We stayed in loop A. It’s basically on the water. Big spacious sites, 50 amp, and water. Very clean cg and camp hosts very friendly. Several roads coming in were very steep down, but manageable with our 38 ft coach. Some trees in loop A. Restroom very outdated, but one in loop C is better. We road our bikes to the dam. Great time! FREE LAUNDRY!

Easy to find and roads in are OK. Not all that busy outside of hunting season. Four spots have a picnic table. Spots are reasonably private. Did have portable toilets but some drunk idiots smashed them. Does have a trash bin.
