    General Coffee State Park Campground features an equestrian camping area with four dedicated sites designed specifically for visitors with horses. These sites are situated apart from the main camping loops and provide basic amenities for equestrians. Unlike the standard campgrounds, the equestrian area only offers pit toilets without shower facilities, requiring campers to purchase a shower pass to access facilities in the main campground areas. The equestrian sites are positioned close together with minimal privacy between them, but provide direct access to the park's network of horse trails.

    The park maintains equestrian trails that connect to the broader trail system throughout the 1,511-acre property. Riders have access to multiple trail options that wind through diverse terrain including cypress swamps and forested areas surrounding the 17-mile river. The trails offer peaceful riding experiences with opportunities to view wildlife in their natural habitat. While the equestrian sites lack the amenities of the main campground loops, they provide the quiet and seclusion many horse owners prefer. The park requires advance reservations for equestrian sites, especially during peak seasons. Sites accommodate both horse trailers and camping setups, though riders should bring all necessary equine supplies as the park does not offer feed or tack services.

      Great weekend camp

      This is a good campground divided into 2 loops. Many pull throughs. We had site #12 which was gigantic. All the sites are open to your neighbors. Small park with a few trails, small pond, and farm. The farm was great with chickens, sheep, donkey and horse. On our visit there were 3 day old lambs!! Can fish in small pond and rent peddle boats or kayaks but this pond is very small. This is a great place for 3/4 days. Went for dinner and to local bakery in nearby town of Douglas Georgia.

      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.

      Dixon Memorial WMA - Hunter Camp

      True Backcountry Georgia

      There is something beautifully wild about Dixon Memorial WMA, where the road narrows, the pine flatwoods open up endlessly and you quickly realize you are far from camp stores, strip malls and creature comforts. This massive wildlife management area offers dispersed primitive camping rather than a structured campground (meaning you are essentially choosing your own sandy clearing among longleaf pines, palmettos, and quiet forest roads). There are no developed amenities to speak of here: no bathhouses, no playgrounds, no hookups, just open land occasional fire rings left by prior campers, and the sounds of wind through the trees. The boys thought it was exciting at first, especially when we spotted deer tracks in the sand and listened for owls at dusk, but without designated facilities or nearby services, it quickly felt more like true backcountry camping than a manageable overnight stop for a family with younger kids. Since there are no marked sites, the best choice is to select a well-cleared area set back from the main dirt roads for added privacy and safety. While Dixon Memorial is likely a dream for seasoned hunters, equestrians or campers seeking deep solitude, for families wanting even basic campground structure, this one leans firmly into primitive territory and may be better suited for older kids or adults prepared for a fully self-contained adventure.

      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

      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.

      Loved it!

      The campsite was very private and backed up to the woods. The farm was so much fun and the people were absolutely amazing! They walked us around and gave us a little tour, they were super friendly!

    Guide to Hoboken

    General Coffee State Park offers equestrian campsites for horse owners looking to access the park's trail system. The four equestrian sites are distinct from standard camping areas, providing basic facilities specifically designed for visitors traveling with horses. Located 12 miles from Hoboken, Georgia, this 1,511-acre park provides dedicated horse trails through diverse South Georgia terrain, including pine forests and wetland areas. The climate remains mild throughout most of the year, though summer humidity can be challenging for both riders and horses.

    What to do

    Wildlife viewing excursions: Explore the West River Trail where campers can observe native wildlife in their natural habitat. "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," notes G.F. about General Coffee State Park Campground.

    Heritage farm visits: The park features a working heritage farm with various animals that visitors can interact with and feed. "We love buying carrots to feed all the farm animals and if you want some good exercise rent one of the pedal boats," shares Kirsten W. about her experience at General Coffee.

    Boating and fishing: The park offers access to small lakes suitable for fishing. "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," explains Kayla S. about Barrington County Park.

    What campers like

    Spacious campsites: The standard campgrounds feature generously sized sites with natural buffers. "We had site #12 which was gigantic. All the sites are open to your neighbors," reports Rachel G. about her stay at General Coffee State Park.

    Clean facilities: Many campers appreciate the well-maintained bathroom facilities at area parks. "Bathrooms are always spotless. Nice paved roadway. Gravel sites all of them pull through. Large private sites," Michael R. shares about Big Mike's Ranch and RV Camp.

    Farm animals: Unique to General Coffee State Park is the opportunity to interact with farm animals. "Humble and super hospitable super friendly people they've got baby goats donkeys horses chicken that roam free during the day and at night the donkey keep predators away so it's super safe and quiet if you don't mind the roosters," notes Theresa B. about her experience at Big Mike's Ranch.

    What you should know

    Trail conditions vary: Some trails may be closed or limited due to weather conditions or maintenance. "Only one trail open and it's not the one with access to swamp. Because it's near the swamp, it is hot, humid and buggy. Bring your thermacells," advises G.F. about General Coffee State Park.

    Road access considerations: Access roads to some campsites may require careful navigation. "The long sandy road coming in is often washboard and occasionally has big dips or ruts. So drive very mindfully," Katie A. cautions about Barrington County Park.

    Seasonal closures: Some parks in the region undergo periodic maintenance closures. "Great spot, however maintenance is starting 2/12/24. Not sure how long this will last, but park will be closed for some time," Hayden W. notes about Barrington County Park.

    Tips for camping with families

    Bring bikes: The paved roads within some parks make for excellent family biking. "Great place for bike rides too," mentions Michael R. about General Coffee State Park Campground.

    Plan for farm visits: Schedule time to visit the heritage farm with children. "The farm was great with chickens, sheep, donkey and horse. On our visit there were 3 day old lambs!!" Rachel G. enthusiastically shares about her family's experience at General Coffee State Park.

    Explore history: The historical structures provide educational opportunities. "I love the old houses, it gives you a feeling of what it was like 100 years ago," Jennifer H. notes about the historical elements at General Coffee State Park.

    Tips from RVers

    Site selection considerations: When booking RV sites, consider tree placement. "Be careful about some of the pull through spaces as there are trees that might make it difficult for longer RVs to get into," advises Lisa M. about her experience at General Coffee State Park Campground.

    Hookup availability: Check which utilities are available at your site. "Our space was nice and level, had water and electric, the bathrooms were so so. Clean but the showers could've used a little attention," Lisa M. continues about General Coffee State Park.

    Laundry options: Some parks offer laundry facilities for extended stays. "We did do our laundry here which was relatively inexpensive," notes Lisa M., providing practical information for RVers staying multiple nights at General Coffee State Park.
