    Georgia Veterans State Park Campground

    No waterfront… no problem

    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.

    close to Rigby's and the aviation museum

    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.

    Water views are the best !

    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.

    Perfect pull off spot

    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.

    Georgia Veterans State Park Campground

    Very nice and worth and extended stay

    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.

    Cordele KOA

    4.2 stars

    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.

    Easily accessible overnight KOA

    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.

    Beautiful views - FREE LAUNDRY

    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. 🤣

    Nice for one night stay

    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.

    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!

    Good overnight stop

    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.

    Can't wait to go again!

    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.

    The Staff is the Hidden Gem

    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.

    Nice RV park

    This is a nice RV park. There are full hook ups, a laundry room, 3 ponds with fishing, decent cell service. They also did a 4th of July get together for the local community and had blow up rides, a dj, food and fireworks. The sites are spaced out in some sections and closer in others, but overall very nice.

    Incredible campground

    We stay here on occasion when passing through the area. 

    The staff is very pleasant and the park is clean. 

    My grand children enjoyed the park and goats.

    Easy highway access and quiet

    This campground comes with goats! Lol See our full review on YouTube. The sites are nice and level. There’s an equestrian campground. Sadly there is no pool and the only thing to do is watch the goats.

    One night stop only

    It gets 2 stars because the staff was nice but the park looks run down. Every site needed mowing (no rain so no excuse) and the site next to us was blocked off because of a water leak for quite some time, algae growing on the water. Trees need to be trimmed. It is easy on easy off of 75. ‘45 MH

    Great Lake front sites

    Nice small campground. Very well maintained. Site18 was great for us and boat and 2 dogs. Most sites were large with plenty of space. Water and electricity but no sewer. Have dump station. Nice areas between site and lake. Cell signal was good for Verizon and AT&T was good to stream video. Bathrooms very clean and lots of shower room. They do have a playground as well. The boat ramp was easy to get to for our small fishing boat. Launched my kayak right from the site. Great sunsets. The 3,600 acre Lake Juliette was nice. It was calm most mornings but usually a little windy in afternoon. The GP power plant is close by. There is some road noise at some sites since it is just off the road. Would not like a few of the sites due to that. Maybe not so bad in summer with leaves on the trees. Paul and Sue were very nice camp hosts and informative about the area. Had a great time. Looking forward to coming back in warmer weather and the fish are biting. Gave 4 stars due to road noise only. May not bother most people.

    Great stop if you’re passing through

    Stopped here to camp overnight on our way down to Florida from Ohio. Arrived around 9:30 and was able to check-in after hours via a box with an envelope next to the office. Only us and a few other people so it was pretty quiet. The restrooms were very clean and well lit, and in this current covid time going to a public restroom can be dicey so I appreciated that.

    It is right next to the highway, which is quick and great if you’re just pulling in for the night. We camped in a truck but if you’re a tent camper you will be hearing the dull roar of the expressway all night if that bothers you!

    Great Park!

    This place is HUGE!! As others have said, the sites are a little close together and there's some traffic noise, but neither bothered me very much - I was real close to the road too, so not that bad at all. I was quite comfortable the two days I stayed here. They have a little convenience store with camping gear you may have forgotten (or didn't know you needed!), souvenirs, food, and other essentials. The bathrooms are nice and there are some on-site fun to be had with a basketball hoop and playground.

    Georgia Veterans State Park Campground

    Average stay

    Site #52, full hookup site, slightly unlevel but generally a good site.

    Park has a museum and war time tank and aircraft.  Large field where local airplane hobbyists come and fly their models.  Campground was quiet, and very dark at night.  We did see some wildlife roaming as we ventured out in to the park.  

    The hosts did a good job of keeping the restrooms clean.  I don't recall seeing any park officials driving through the campground.

    Campground is at the back of the park, so not a lot of outside traffic.  Fishing and boating, Restaurant and bar not busy at all.   

    I will say it was pricey, $60/night

    Group camping - great place!

    We camped here with our Cub Scout Pack for the weekend. Loved the museum and outdoor aircrafts and tanks! There was a easy walking trail to and from the pioneer camp. The highlight was for sure the railroad that is right next to the camping area. The passenger train comes through twice a day and it so neat to see up close. Pioneer campsite is not well marked from the main road, but that may be on purpose.

    Birthday bash at Lake Blackshear

    Campsites #18-19

    We stayed at these two campsites for a long birthday weekend. The sites were fairly level and backed up to one of the finger coves off this lake. That ended up having pros and cons... The bugs and gnats were bad in early September on several of the nights there. It have water, cable, 50/30 amp electric, fire ring and picnic table. The site were spacious and very clean. It was an on and off rainy trip and water did come through the site because the site was off an incline. It was a slight walk to the bathrooms and they were very clean although needed a bit of upgrading. The host came up to greet us and make sure all was good with our stay. We bought firewood for $5 a bundle of 5-6 piece. There was golfing and a large swimming pool at the resort that we did not use. You could also rent pontoon boats, kayaks and canoes to explore the lake. One drawback was no sewer hookups. So you have to allow an extra hour to dump and go. We did not like having to ration water usage during out trip. This was a one and done for us as the gnats were a real turnoff and no sewer hookups. So many other parks to explore.
