    Towns Bluff Park

    Primitive Site Bullard Creek WMA

    About 8 miles north of Hazlehurst, GA, on a dirt road turn off just before the Altamaha River, this primitive site lies in solitude amongst the loblolly pines. Besides the people who were really loud camping near us, it was a wonderful space. No water or electric hook ups unless you go to the RV site. There are showers, sinks and bathrooms near the river which is only a short walk from the site. There is a boat ramp there and tubing/floating down the river was a popular activity. Bugs weren't too bad thankfully!!

    General Coffee State Park Campground

    Memorial Day Weekend 2020

    We tent camped for 2 nights in campsite #1 in campground #1. This site is the first site to the right when you pull into the campground. There are trash cans at the campground exit and a direct line of sight view of the dump station. The west river trail runs right behind the campsite. The site itself is spacious with plenty of shade. There are a couple of good sets of trees for hanging a hammock. The electric box is a little further from the tent pad (which is packed sand and not gravel) than most sites I’ve stayed at, so I was happy that I brought an extension cord. The camp restrooms are adequate but not at all ADA accessible at campground #1. There are 3 toilet stalls, 2 that have working latches, and 2 shower stalls- both with working latches. Both of the showers have a small little room for you to change clothes with a hook on the wall and a hook on the door and a little bench. If you’re tall, be ready to duck to get your head under the water because the shower heads are low. Temperature and pressure were good. Bonus perk- stray cats at the campground.

    The park itself has some cool trails. We hiked the west river trail all the way to the farm at the front of the park. It took us over wooden boardwalks over swampy Cyprus areas and through the forest around the 17 mile river. It was pretty and the heritage tobacco farm was really cool. There are restrooms and a coke machine at the farm. The coke machine takes cards, but bring lots of water with you. There are lots of animals that are used to being fed, so buy some food at the visitor’s center, or prepare to be made to feel guilty. The farm is situated next to a small lake, and when the world isn’t shutdown due to COVID-19, they rent boats. The lake is big enough to boat around in for a little while and there are fish to be caught- carp from what I could tell.

    There was a small gravel road that split off from the first group picnic shelter area that takes you down to the 17 mile river for fishing access. The 17 mile river dries up some years, but the deeper “lakes” keep water in them during those dry years. The river wasn’t flowing while we were here, but there was some standing water in places that would have been dry if it hadn’t rained recently.

    The park is about an hour and a half drive from the main entrance of the Okefenokee swamp. We drove down there and rented a kayak so we both could go paddle the swamp. On the way down there, somewhere outside of waycross, we passed a mudding course, if that’s more your style.

    Overall, this is someplace that I probably wouldn’t come back to because I’ve done all the things that the park has to offer, and there are more parks to explore. It’s definitely worth a visit for a night or two, or as a jumping off point for other activities this part of the state has to offer.

    General Coffee State Park Campground

    Great campground for younger campers

    We have always liked “quieter” campgrounds with less crowds, more open spaces, and larger sites. That being said, this park has some nice hiking trails, equestrian trails, a really interesting and enjoyable farm with animals, and a lot of stuff to do. The store has the basics, like firewood and ice and some odds and ends. We stayed in the equestrian campground, which consists of four sites. They are very close together. They also only have pit toilets and no shower facilities. We had to buy a shower pass in order to use the shower facilities in the main campgrounds. The campgrounds there have no privacy; they are jam packed together, but great if you are a social camper. Very little foliage in those areas leaves you zero privacy. It’s very noisy also. Facilities were relatively clean. Campsite loop one is older, campsite two is newer. If you want some peace and quiet, and don’t mind the lack of showers, the equestrian sites are the way to go. If you’re a social camper, go with loop two. Loop one just looks a bit tired and in need of updating.

    Jack Hill State Park

    Perfect For First Camping Trip

    This place was great! It was our first camping trip as a family. We had the one tent only site. It was so quiet…until we got there…then our little kiddos were loud haha. It was actually perfect for our kids, we didn’t even get to do all the activities in our two night stay. We fished but didn’t catch anything. We did however see two small alligators in the lake! We were a little bummed the nature trail was still closed due to the hurricane Helene damage. There was a main road nearby but if you can handle the noise of a few passing cars then you won’t have any problems. Bathrooms were clean, staff was very welcoming and helpful, and campground was very clean. We plan to go back!

    Little Ocmulgee State Park & Lodge

    Quiet, Clean and plenty of activities.

    Clean and Shady camping space with newer, clean showers and restrooms. 

    The park has many amenities just a short walk away. Nearby golf course seems to be appreciated by several campers. Take a walk down to the dam and read about the construction of the park and the lake, by the CCC, in the 1930's

    As of September 2023 the construction on the Cottages continues, so there is some noise during the day. But considering we were the closest to it, it was not bad.

    General Coffee State Park Campground

    Still recovering from Helen

    Came in June 2025. Only one trail open and it’s not the one with access to swamp. The park has beautiful bone structure and I’m sure once fixed, it will be great. But as of now, very limited hiking. We did not visit farm but it seemed cute as well as its little lake where we saw brim and bass. Campground 1 is on an unpaved but well packed dirt road. Sites are small with limited privacy but very quaint. Campground 2 has a paved main road, with bigger sites and more privacy. All sites are pull thru. Outer ones give you access to the nature trail (closed except for small loop). Because it’s near the swamp, it is hot, humid and buggy. Bring your thermacells.

    Jack Hill State Park

    Small State Park with a Golf Course

    Jack Hill State Park is a small campsite in Reidsville, Georgia. The state park features a lake, golf course, mini golf and splash pad. There are less than 35 campsites on the property and each campsite was well spaced out. The bathroom/shower house facilities were clean and seemed quite new. They had 1 washer and dryer on site on the backside of the bathrooms. While it would be great if they had another set of laundry machines, I understand as it is such a small park and there is laundry very close by. The Park featured only 1 or 2 trails that were really short. I wish they had more trails. The Park was within a few minutes of basic amenities like gas, groceries and a McDonalds. The nearest Walmart was 30 minutes away in Vidalia, GA and it featured restaurants and tons of stores nearby. The campsite was $35 per night and we had full hookups.

    Jeff Davis County Towns Bluff Park RV Park and Campground

    Nice spot

    If you keep left instead of going towards the rv campground, there is a free primitive camping area that has multiple spots for camping. There was one other person camping while I stayed here. It is not a large area and privacy could be an issue if there were a lot of people camping. There was also water from a hose towards the back of the site. I stayed in early October and the weather was great. 75 as a high and upper 50’s at night. Bugs were not much of an issue either. We walked down to the river where the boat ramp is and there are also plenty of areas to explore and gather wood.

    Jack Hill State Park

    A little gem

    Small campground with some campsites that are Lakeside. Brand new bathhouse. Very nice golf course, driving range and store. Brand new office and ranger station. A pretty little campground. They do have a splash pad, mini golf course, and playgrounds for kids. There is a short nature trail. We like to go here once or twice a year when we don't have a long weekend and just want to get away for a couple days.
