Peacock Slough River Camp — Suwannee River Wilderness Trail
Reviewed Jan. 4, 2021

WOW! River Camp Oasis

We did a 65 mile paddle on the Suwanee River and stayed at two river camps and a campsite! We loved all the spots. These river camps are a TREAT! WOW!

Dowling Park and Peakock Slough were both really nice river camps. Here are some things we liked

  • free! didn’t require reservations during our winter COVID trip time
  • screened in pavilions with light/fan and outlets. Each one has a fire pit, grill and water spigot! Quite cute :)
  • decent amount of privacy between sites - but we were the only ones there at the end of December!
  • bathrooms with hot showers. This bathroom was quite clean and a bit bigger than the trailer bathrooms at Dowling Park
  • canoe racks
  • larger pavilion with picnic tables
  • wheelbarrows to wheel your stuff from the river to campsite. Amazing!
  • extra primitive sites
  • dishwashing area

There’s a spring just before the river camp that looked like a great swimming spot! It was too cold when we there but Would’ve been great paddling break :)
