Good time! It rained and was a little muddy, but it was nice. Site 11 is kind of small for a large tent like we have. The group sites are close by and they were quite loud, but the rest of the park was nice and quiet. There is horse camping here, and the lake is nice for swimming.
Hickory Oaks was amazing! Cindy called to check on us because we were arriving late. They even delivered wood to our campsite so we could have a fire. We saw so much wildlife! Chipmunks, ducks, a great horned owl, and countless birds to name a few. Our campsite was shaded all throughout the day, which helped with the summer heat. Bathrooms are well maintained, showers are free, and there is ice cream and some camping stuff for sale in the office.
We will definitely be coming here again!
Bev was amazing to us!
Only 4 campsites and you have to call to reserve a spot but the views are worth it.
Every campsite has water, electric, a picnic table, fire pit, and tree for shade. The showers were being fixed when we visited, so I can't speak for that. A couple of porta potties on site and trash bins. Bev had tons of wood and we paid ~$8 for two wheelbarrows full!
Not even a mile from the state park on the same road.
