Will not go back

While the camp hosts were very nice and the bathrooms were clean, that’s where the good ends. The sites are on top of each other in the inner loop and very much out of level. There is no place to dump trash in the campground. The only places were at the boat ramp and beach. Worst of all was the dump station was overflowing and could not be used when we were leaving.

Location is great. Bathhouses need some work!

Loved the location. Great access to Lake Oconee. Bathhouses are a mess. In one bathhouse only 1 of the 3 showers was working. In the other bathhouse, all 3 showers working but paint peeling off walls so bad I had paint chips on me after my shower. Beach was closed due to Covid.
