Best Campgrounds near Macon, GA

Excellent safe parking if you need to take a break to rest. No hookups but have wide parking spots, secured gated, fenced access. Easy walking access to Quiktrip next door. Right off exit

This campground is great if you have kids. The playground is centrally located. Trails are easy to get to and the falls are a nice sight.

Claystone Park was our first ever experience tent camping. Everything was great from the location of the bathroom and shower house, to ample space, and spectacular views. Quiet hours were respectfully observed, and all the amenities provided within our campsite were more than enough. Clean clean clean

Tent camping was really more of a job than a vacation night and bathrooms were nasty

This is a little gem of a state park. Indian Springs State park has a lot to offer. The camp sites are the other side of the lake from the group and public shelters/picnic areas etc so you feel away from everything. The park offers a museum, trails, kayak rentals and more. 

The multi-purpose hike connects to the Dauset Nature Center trails and is worth taking the extra mile or so, at least, to go visit the nature center. The hike is rated as quite hard on All Trails and similar apps but, in reality, is fine for most levels. I am recovering from a back injury and this was my first 5+ mile hike in years. It was more than manageable. 

One downside of the parks location is that you are close to Jackson and neighboring towns. There were some noises (e.g. loud cars) that could be heard from our site at night. It wasn't constant or overly intrusive. The main complaint was that other humans in the park seemed to not have consideration for their camping neighbors and enjoyed driving golf carts around while playing music at full volume. That can happen anywhere though and maybe shouldn't be a 'negative' for the park. 

The park is well kept, comfort stations are fine and staff very friendly and helpful.

To make plans to coming in is terrible. you can't get in website if you show up in person or have a some one come in that doesn't work. If you don't make it simple for to come to your camp ground. Work for your campers.  I've been in 50 states and most of Canada and don't have this much trouble to come to your City and be a tourist and spend money.

We really enjoyed staying at High Falls. Most of the RV sites were spaced well apart and the amenities were clean.

Beautiful campsite, just a few neighbors, tons of flat space and a few fire pits. There are hunters around and we heard a good deal of shots. Saw some deer on a walk. It was quite hot but surprisingly not that buggy.

We made this reservation many months ago and have rescheduled a few times as our plans changed. Today, we checked in and filled our propane tank. The person was training at the desk and messed up the billing. I got to site 112, which was not very level; I had to jack the front of the RV off the ground to get level. The sewer connection was uphill, so I did not dump tanks. WiFi was spotty and very slow. Cell coverage AT&T and Verizon were both poor. The site was muddy from water runoff. Convenient for overnight stay. But not a campground where I would spend multiple nights.

Camp host Bobby was pleasant and helpful,  Sites were a good size and spaced well. Georgia Power has some of the nicest campgrounds and this one is a gem. Great place for boating and fishing and kiddos will love the beach, not many trails to hike and very Dog Friendly (a must for us)  Bath house and latrines were absolutely stellar and very clean, laundry area as well.  Spray WELL for ants as they are abundant we had no issues but our neighbors needed some assistance in mitigation.  Close drive to town for additional supplies and a Publix supermarket is about 2 miles away.  final words... Great place for kids and boating if you're looking for wilderness trails this is not the place.

Street lights, and some grill I place. At end of the road.

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.

Stayed here overnight while returning from South Georgia. Was only camper that night, perhaps 10-12 other groups making use of lake/fishing vicinity further into the park -- all of whom exited the park at dark. There is a really nice covered pavilion overlooking the lake if you get rained out (4 picnic tables.) Bathrooms with flush toilets and hot water available 200 yards away from pavilion. Park is split in two sections. The upper section (when you first drive in) is where the camping spots are. The lower section has 3-4 small lakes popular with fishing. T-mobile showed 2 bars 5G allowing you to grab a 1 day fishing pass ($8) to satisfy permit.

Site was very clean and quiet. A lot of the campers stay there monthly and long term. It’s best to reserve way in advance if you want a water site.

Very nice a bit bumpy on the drive in but no major holes. Quiet and peaceful 2 neighbors great amount of space to find a nice spot.

Beautiful peaceful and quiet.
