Live Oak — Garner State Park

Stayed for two November nights in the Live Oak campsite (site 328). Park was very well maintained. Bathrooms were clean albeit the one in Live Oak had no hot water. Not a big issue as the adjacent site bathroom was just as close for us. For our 22ft trailer the space was adequate, but would have been tight for a longer rig. A lot of the spaces at the various camping areas looked somewhat short, but for us it wasn’t an issue. Most sites seemed to have good shade and the trees provided nice privacy. All in all it was very peaceful, hiking trails were excellent, and the scenery is awesome.

always love this park. Toobing on the river, hiking up the trails, the crystal cave, the overlook, and mount baldy too bot! Large campsites are very well tended, and park employees are so friendly. Love this place, which is why it is so very popular. Make your reservations early!

We only stayed one night, but we didn’t want to leave. The trails range from flat ground walks to actual mountain hikes. The facilities were decent, about what you expect from a state camp ground. Staff was more than accommodating. We took our 70lb dog and 3 year old child. They both had a blast. We will return for an extended stay soon. The grounds are massive. We hiked all day Sunday and all day Monday and only completed about 1/5th of the trails. They even had putt putt golf. No complaints. Great park. Worth the drive.
