    Rood Creek Park Camping

    Perfect Spot

    Perfect camp spot. Drove a dirt road through farmland about a mile or so and took a left at the end towards the campground. Only one other campsite taken. Each site has a trash can and a picnic table. It was awesome. Had my own bathroom setup, so didn’t check theirs out, but they have a small facility. We did see a small gator in the creek. Woke up to fog on the water. It was beautiful!

    Also had 1-2 bars of service with T Mobile.

    Love's RV Stop-Cordele GA 801

    Great for an overnight

    It’s a great option for an overnight stay. Easy in and out with large full hook up sites on large concrete pads. The campground is gated and secure. Can grab fuel and coffee on the way out in the morning. We have used this campground the last 2 years on our drive home as a last stop to really clean the tanks and get the camper ready to store. Will come again on our way home next summer.

    Lakepoint Resort State Park Campground

    Memorial Day weekend

    Lakepoint Campground is an absolute treasure! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by how clean, well-maintained, and peaceful everything was. The campsites are spacious and thoughtfully laid out, providing just the right amount of privacy while still feeling connected to the natural surroundings.

    The lake views are breathtaking—perfect for early morning coffee or a sunset stroll. We enjoyed fishing, biking, and just soaking in the beauty of the area. The trails are well-marked and offer a great variety for all skill levels. Plus, the wildlife sightings were a real treat—deer, birds, and even a curious raccoon or two!

    Restrooms and showers were clean and well-stocked, which is always a huge plus.

    Highly recommend to anyone who loves the outdoors!

    Rood Creek Park Camping

    Beautiful location for peace

    This was a beautiful and quiet spot to camp. The most awesome part was the price, free! There is a time limit, you can only camp for 14 days out of 30 unless you've contacted the Parks department and gotten permission for a longer stay before you arrive. We came in on a Tuesday and there was plenty of spaces available. 

    The park does have a number of local "regulars" who come out to enjoy the park on the weekends and some as part of their "monthly rotation" for camper living, they were nice folks. We stayed for our 2 weeks and it seemed that Thursdays were the busiest day as people were traveling through and ended up "overflowing" from the Florence Marina Campground that is just 5 min up the road.

    There is no water or power so it's definitely a "primitive camp" area and there is one permanent outhouse which they refill toilet paper in each Friday when they also pick up the trash from the camp trash cans. 

    We rented a JohnBoat, aka Dingy for the WestCoasters, for $35 for 4 hours from Florence Marina and so had use of their showers on that day. Eufaula has a few laundromats so we did our laundry there to get in and out efficiently. Next time we stay here I'll probably choose a laundry/shower day and rent a paid site from Florence for that day but not move my tent and just go use their shower and laundry facility (laundry does have a small cost per load). I also got ice and firewood a couple of times from Florence when I needed a restock and didn't want to go far.
