We really enjoyed our stay at Georgia Veterans Memorial SP. we stayed in site 72 on Camping area #3. It faced the woods with a walking path. It was very private with the exception of the occasional hiker. So it was very nice to feel so secluded.
Stayed here mostly to visit Rigby's and the aviation museum. My girlfriend loved the horses - different ones are coming and going frequently. My 6 year old had a great time with the other kids and pond and playground. Great facilities and staff.
Spot #30 has a Water view and is less expensive than a site on the water. So if you bring a boat you can pull it up on shore by your site. Very nice camp ground, park, marina, golf and military museum. #30 is a long pull thru site with water and electric. Well worth the visit.
Park was easy to get to. We were on site 1, a back in site. Sites were kinda close together, we heard a little more of our neighbors than we would have liked to. Campground was dog friendly and many were around. Bathrooms and laundry facilities were roomy and clean. The grill and fire pit were in good shape. We didn’t see a store for firewood and charcoal, so bring your own if you’ll need it. Although we didn’t use it, the grounds had a putt putt course that was available for guest use. The camp hosts were very kind.
We had pull thru site with full hookups. Everything worked and site was level. We made reservations and arrived after staff was gone. There was a detailed map and directions to get to our site. Worked great as a stopover to our final destination.
The park has too much to list for amenities! Dog park, clean laundry facilities, camping, chalets, excellent pull thru's, boat rental, post access and MWR office, and more! Check website for eligibility
We stopped here on our way south to Florida out of curiosity. Earlier in the year, we had been in Cordele to ride the SAM Railway which was based next to the park and had decided to stop on our way back through and check out the campground. The GVSP is well maintained with alot of open space, lake access and a historical museum honoring Georgia Veterans. The camping area is spacious with back in and pull through sites. The roadways were narrow and paved with the sites being gravel and level in most cases. Sites along the lakefront are a bit more expensive but the lake can be viewed from any site. Shower houses are cleaned daily by camp hosts and are well maintained. We were advised by another camper that sites fill up quickly on weekends but are usually available during the week. We only spent 2 nights (on a whim) but will return for a longer stay in the future. A great area for biking, fishing and boating.
Large sites with tall trees and plenty of shade. Easy check in with a friendly park ranger and also met the camp host who was also very nice. There is a big lake for boating and fishing and you can rent a small boat on site. The bathrooms and laundry room were clean but hot and muggy with just a couple of fans running. Not much else going on at this park. Down the road however is Providence Canyon SP and that is an absolute must if you are staying here. Providence Canyon has some great hiking and amazing views.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. They have an amazing staff that made us feel welcomed and safe. Their pool and splash pad is nicer than most hotels. The site bathrooms/showers and laundry area are kept in very well condition. We saw all types of wild life, deer, boar, and a variety of birds. 10/10. Can’t wait to go back.
This KOA is just off of i75, super convenient for an overnight stop (which was what we did). Our boys loved the early 80s Era playground, but unfortunately it wasn't kept up well and was frankly dangerous- the large swingset wasn't anchored to the ground, the fence was partially torn down near the roadway, and there was rust on the equipment. They didn't kbiw the difference and played on it for an hour having lots of fun, but it is an accident waiting to happen. The woman who we dealt with at check in was awesome- super nice and friendly, and gave me a teacher discount. Our site was a nice large pull through with a picnic table and fire ring. Setup wasn't difficult. There was some wet dirt, could probably use some gravel. The campground looked to be in a retired pecan Grove. Not a ton of privacy but large sites and nice trees. While you can hear the highway, this one is not immediately adjacent but one property away, so it isn't bad. The property between the campground and the highway is a large abandoned building.. slightly shady but not a problem. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
Everything this KOA has to offer is exactly what you would expect for a KOA Journey location. Full amenities, clean park, decent camp store. The only thing that is lacking is not anything to do with the KOA itself but the lack of anything else at this exit on 75 including gas and food. Have to head up the interstate an exit or two to find this stuff.
We stayed 2 days. Close to providence state park which was our desired destination. Quiet. Sites aren't particularly private but not very site had sewer hookup - or at least our site did.
We camped here on the way to Florida. We enjoyed all of the military history around the park. There is also a disc golf course my husband played. Best part for us full timers was the FREE laundry. 🤣
It’s a decent park to stay for one night. You can feed some goats and there’s a playground that’s really old and a little dangerous. The staff is very friendly and accommodating.
We stayed here over Memorial day in order to visit nearby Providence Canyon. The sites were large and neighbors were not too close. We were close to the bathhouse which was a plus. The bathhouse was clean during our stay. The host was nice and gave out popsicles to the kids nightly. There was a putt putt course which we played on. It needed to be turfed and maintained better but we still had fun. There was a large building which looked nice from the outside available for rent for events. The park has a marina and boat ramp. I was able to put in my kayak and paddle around the lake. Swimming is not allowed due to the gators. Also you could not go on the Marina docks unless you had a boat and rented a slip. There was a very small dock near the campground area where you could fish or just watch the gators. There were some walking trails. One of them which lead out to a peninsula on the lake was very overgrown and appeared to have been used for a haunted trail at one time because there were props all in the woods on the trail. It also looked as if this was the site of the walk in camp sites at one point because there were campfire rings all along the trail with clears spots. However it was obvious these were not in current use. There really isn’t much to do here without a body. They do have a small store and bait shop at the park.
Pros: if you have a boat; great Spanish moss hanging from trees. Clean large bathhouse with indoor washers and dryers. There is a recycling station for cans and bottles and a soda machine. A simple PuttPutt course is available for five bucks. The sites are well shaded.
Cons: Campground sites are small, and your rig backs up to your neighbor, so you have 15 feet between you and them. To the left and right is a neighbor as well with 25 feet between.
Zero LTE for Verizon users. Texts weren't even coming through. No phone calls were able to be made.
The hiking trail is abysmal. It is decorated year-round for Halloween, very odd, and isn't a loop.
There is no swimming here because of gators. If you are there in the summer months, it gets hot and muggy without any way to cool off.
Site 3 is on end, so you only have neighbors directly behind you and on one side.
Great location off 75. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful! Sites are level as we didn’t have to disconnect our trailer for the night. Would stay here again!
Sites are spaced better than most KOAs that I’ve been. 27 is a pull through. Plenty long for my 26’ class c and toad. Kamp kitchen was closed. Host were very friendly. Place looked like it needed a little love, but it is January. Maybe it will be nicer in the spring. Right off I75 but really didn’t hear the traffic too much. Arrived at 2pm and only stayed 1 night.
This park is gorgeous! We only spent one night here but we will definitely be back!! Love this park. Bathroom & shower were clean. Campgrounds were clean and well manicured. We were right on the lake! And the view from our RV was beautiful.
Love the lazy river! Pool is beautiful! Sites are small though.
Had a nice weekend at this small state park. The site was very clean with fire pit, picnic table, and full hook ups including cable. The fire pit had been cleaned out before we arrived which was a nice surprise. The bathhouse was centrally located and was spotless. It included an interior wash room and was heated which was appreciated on the chilly evenings. Plenty of hot water and good water pressure. Showers also had a separate changing area with plenty of shelves and hooks to keep clothes dry. Loved the recycling on site! The sites are pretty close to each other and because it’s located in a pine forest, there’s not much privacy but enough space to enjoy the patio. We’re glad we checked it out!
The owners were so kind and helpful We had a great spot Very clean all around loved there little parakeets
I would give this Campground five stars if the sites were a little nicer.
Very pleasant staff that took you to your site. Good size site. Table, fire ring. Clean restrooms
This campground became an unplanned stop for us following an accident on I-75 where we were hit and our fifth wheel incapacitated for about five hours. We called and they happily put us in a spot for the night if we could make it / be towed there - and didn’t bother with the financials till later since we weren’t sure we could. The staff work super hard and the park is well kept. It’s a quiet setting which has been a fantastic for us with so many insurance issues and tasks to recover our losses on our totaled rig. We had friends come and camp by us for several days just to offer support and they noticed the manager Bob works way harder than any one person should.
The only reason it wasn’t five stars is the pool is not open - a fence is down from the highway department doing some road work and the big yellow sign is also down. This made it very difficult for us to find the entrance in our damaged RV in the rain.
I stayed here in my NoBo 16.2 camper for almost 6 weeks waiting on a house. The site is clean. Cable, electric, water and sewer. The wifi has been out for a while. Tent sites and cabins also available. Lots of wildlife. If you're into C130s flying over due to being in close proximity to the US Army Airborne School, this is the place for you.
Spent a weekend in March 2021 at Oz. Had a great time even though it was early in the season.
