Great full moon experience

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.

Very nice

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 Some trees in loop A. Restroom very outdated, but one in loop C is better.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!

Awesome!

Beautiful campground. Many waterfront site, mostly all spacious and relatively flat. Be aware though that the crushed gravel pad base can allow your jacks to settle too far down. We have snap pads but even these sank to the point that one of our jacks had to be dug out. Had to use a Mobil Mechanic. Otherwise, beautiful, peaceful, view of the dam and lake outside our windows. Large level grassy areas with great shade trees. Some sites, like ours, would be great for solar…others had good shade. Amazingly very few bugs, and an almost constant breeze.

Quiet and peaceful campground

We stayed here for four nights starting with the Monday holiday. It was quiet, peaceful and everyone was super friendly. The sunsets were amazing! Get a lakeside site if you can for the most spectacular views. 

I thought I saw on their website that they had laundry facilities, but no, just a room with plumbing that should go to machines. No worries though, the wash can wait! 

Take a walk over to the dam breast. You can walk to Florida and back :)

We stayed here for our annual New Year camping trip. 

Nice big sites, loved the sites on the water. 

The bathrooms were good.

There was also a trail to the Dam, it took you from Georgia to Florida.

The gate closes at 10pm EASTERN Time. Once in the campground, your phone will go to central time, FYI.

Pleasant Lakside Campground

Eastbank Campground on Lake Seminole is a small, COE campground with 3 loops. Two are along the shore of the lake and provide great lake and sunset views. Trees are scattered throughout te campgrounds and provide some partially shaded sites. The campsites are too close together for my taste and provide for little privacy. If you are outside, your neighbors are in view unless you are looking at the lake. The bathrooms were clean, but the showers were only lukewarm. We had to keep our windows closed and air conditioning on until late at night because our neighbors were loud talkers.

Two tent only sites right on the water!

If you’re tent camping, sites B64 and B65 are a bit isolated in their own area and right on the water. Not much shade (though 65 next door does have a tree) so better for the cooler months, but you can fish or kayak right from your spot! Tent sites are on $14/night, and usually have good availability, so a great deal.

Another ACE Campground winner!

Have waited six months into our RV life to start reviews for fair comparisons. Stayed 6 nights in 35 foot RV+tow car in 2 different sites at$24/night. About par for the course for ACE campground: quiet, peaceful, on a lake. Not much to do in the park, and not really a whole lot in the surrounding area. Got caught up on laundry and just did a lot of relaxing. Lots of good bird watching, a few alligators seen as well. Road is very steep from the entrance into the park, but manageable. Based on other reviews about that steep section, we unhooked ahead of time. Camp hosts were so incredibly friendly and really helped us out with mail delivery.

Friendly COE campground

This is a great COE campground on Florida Georgia border. Everyone here was so friendly. Sites are large but very open. Three camping loops. We stayed in C 17. Great site all have fire rings, picnic table, lantern pole, charcoal grill, and prep table. Sites are paved or gravel. Several pull through sites. Great for larger rigs. Loops A & C have waterfront sites. Loop B is inner part of campground. Bathhouses have separate showers from restroom area. Campground is right on lake Seminole. Great fishing, boating, and kayaking. Went in February it was cold and very windy coming off lake. Not much to do in area but great for long weekend stay. Ate at local restaurant called Rutabaga cafe which was great. You are right on the time zone switch so your phone will switch from eastern to central several times. There are amenities close by such as grocery, liquor store, Dollar general. Jim Woodruff Dam is across the lake. It was closed to visitors but we drove to the overlook which was cool. Will definitely come back for another stay.

Ours had a deck instead of the gravel picnic area and it was perfect! Fire pit, clean grill, solid picnic table all included. NBC and CBS for sports via the antenna. Bathrooms were pristine!

Nice park! Sites are big! Only electric and water no sewage hookups but do have a dump station. Staff are nice! And you always see them doing something on a daily! We stayed 5 days. We were right off the water so the sunrises and sunsets were amazing! A couple things that turned sour! The ANTS and FLYING ROACHES! OMG they almost took over our camper! This was our first trip camping with our brand new camper so we didn’t have spray for ants or roaches! I was battling them with our Repel insect spray. If you stay get a site with no trees and that’s not near the water. The dragonflies at a certain time of day are outrageous too! On the positive note! The skies are AMAZING! At night especially with the stars, PERFECT!

Waterfront camping at its best

This was our second visit to this beautiful COE park. Due to the warm weather there were many sites available to us in early August. We were able to get a waterfront site with a long gravel drive, picnic table and fire pit. There are a variety of sites available depending on your preference for sun or shade. The campground hosts were very friendly and helpful. The campground has electric and water at each site with a dump station available. There is a boat launch and a very nice fish cleaning hut near the dump station to process your catch. The restrooms and showers were clean. We happened to be there during May fly season so there were a lot of bugs. We even saw a deer while out for a walk.

Great "RV sites" which are all about the lake

These sites are really for RVs of every size and are truly all about the lake. Either for fishing or for a nice relaxing evening enjoying the sunsets. There are 3 loops with both restroom/shower/laundry facilities on the B loop and for some reason, it seemed that everyone really wanted to drive from the other loops to the facilities in the back which had knobs for the showers instead of short timed buttons. There are unfortunately only 2 dedicated tent sites which are off to the side a nice distance from the RV loops, but it's right by the boat ramp which also has a nice bright streetlamp so be prepared for people coming and going early and/or arriving late in the evening along with the ever present light. We camping in our tent at site 59 which is one of the few sites which has a nice stretch of open grass and tree coverage along with the either leveled concrete pad or gravel "driveway" surfaces at the sites. Each site had a nice grill, fire ring, picnic table, prep table and lantern/bag hook. We thankfully had the trees to partially obscure the streetlamp, but thankfully had brought eyemasks... If you're afraid of animals sneaking up on your tent at night, then this campground is definitely for you, as with all the extremely bright lights on all night long you won't have to worry about anything bothering you in the slightest... Overall, the camp host and the staff were incredibly nice and went out of their way to make sure we were in a nice spot for using our tent. Although there are some better sites on loops A and C because they are right on the water people tend to book those out for weekends way in advance.
