There’s a few designated camp areas up this way. Went out in early Sept 2024 and the road was fine. I drive a lifted AWD overloaded Honda Element and I had no issue. There were two sections on the final ascent loop to the top of Thomas Mountain that were a little scratchy. You do not need to complete the final ascent to the top to enjoy the camping areas. Although if your car is capable there’s an excellent spot at the very end of the loop.

I loved this spot as I only plan a day at a time while traveling. I was able to snag a spot at this campground and here are the tips: -Reservations for this campground open at 6AM mountain time. -Making a profile for their site feels like doing taxes so plan ahead and get your account set up the day before. Skip the app. It’s just a window to their online portal. -Get your first night online. It’ll be your site fee plus $7 reservation fee. -There is no service at the campground but they do have a reservation phone. -On your first day & before 8pm, call the reservation line on the land phone provided and extend your stay for a second night. They will only charge you for the site and not another reservation fee. BOOM! Your site will be secured for as many days as you need so long as you keep extending.

Nice remote campground. Pit toilets, community water spigots, no hookups. There is a hot shower located at the lake up the road.

It rained the last two days but I was able to get up the hill in an overloaded AWD. There were some pretty hefty ruts so choose your lines carefully. I rolled up pretty late, maybe 7p. There was only one other person here and of course they took the spot. The lower spot was a big mud pit and the upper field is overgrown. It looks like a fire came through here maybe last year so the grass has bounced back really well in some spots. Seems pretty quiet human-wise with lots of birds and big noises, which I prefer. Not too far from Devil’s Tower and a great spot for me to stop over for the night. If I stayed longer, I’d nab that good spot. LOL.

DO NOT BRING A STANDARD CAR DOWN HERE! Road was incredibly rough and no cell service. That being said, risking my lifted 4WD SUV was well worth it. I may have forgotten to get a permit. Oops. There’s a large turnaround at the end of the road with spectacular views. I turned left at the outhouse and found a similar spot. Flies and mosquitos were abundant but didn’t kill my vibe. Make sure to check the weather before you go. If it had rained overnight, I probably wouldn’t have been able to make it out.

Sites are close together in rows. No obstructing foliage. Each site has electric, water and sewer. Public bathrooms do have hot showers but the restrooms could use a cleaning. Not much to do here for entertainment. Just a good spot to crash. Monthly rates available.

I stayed in space 90 and it was a perfect distance from the bathroom and front gate. The campground is a pleasant stroll to downtown PTown. If you don’t feel like holding it there are plenty of bike rentals in town too.

This is the quietest state campground I’ve had in the NY State Park System. Just a hop away from Niagara Falls, you can also use your camp pass to park there for free.

I spent July 4th here and it was nice and calm. I had an electric spot just across a small field from the lake.

This only skirts a 5 star because they ask for folks to mask up in the restroom. I don’t have any issue with masking policies but I was the only one following the rules.

They have laundry too.

I pulled in here for a night and got the chance to see bears running around on the way in.  Hiked the water loop and was happy to see a nice swim area.  If you continue on the loop you'll come across a plantation historic site.  It's not on the campground map so I got a little spooked thinking I was in a A24 film.  I visited in June and this place was loaded with fireflies; my personal favorite.  All of the shady spots look like they'd be prime time for laying back and watching the fireflies bump around.  One even snuck in my car and I didn't realize until the next night.

This campsite is pretty barebones.  I went for an open site to be close to the bathroom and give my solar panel a chance to soak in the sun.  Firewood is available for sale and it's cheap, $5 for 10 pieces.  Unfortunately it was a little wet and hard to start.

BEWARE OF THE DEER coming and going out of this park.  I had the misfortune of hitting one on my way out.

Staff was friendly and lot of amenities but this place was totally gross and overpriced.  I was out on OBX for father's day weekend and didn't have any other option.  I figured this would be a treat but it was far from it.  It looked like camping outside of Talladega on race day.  I spent $100 bucks for a small spot with water and electric hookup.

I woke up early and the sunrise was nice. Beach access is very convenient.  Then I went to do laundry and every machine was broken except for one lone dryer.  I went to the main building for their other laundry room and that was fine except for there being drips of dried blood and dog vomit everywhere.  The vomit was localized to two spots but the blood was trailed from the pool, up the steps and even smeared on the gate that I had touched earlier. You'd hope that was an isolated blood incident but later in the day I went into a shower and there was old dried blood on the shower curtain!
Save your money and get a hotel.

The main reason this campground is getting just an okay from me is because of the near hellish amount of bugs there were.  I came on one of the first hot and humid days of the late spring and, man, that was more bugs than I've ever seen in my life.

This looks like a great boating and RV campground but for car camping without AC, not so much.  I retreated to sweat in my car and watch the beautiful sunset through my windshield.

I would not say that the bathrooms were very clean but it may have been because of all of the bugs. Not gonna lie, they scarred me.

Nevertheless, this was an alright one-night stopping point for me.  The dam nearby is a physical bridge between Georgia and Alabama so that was pretty cool.  I spoke with a grounds keeper there and he suggested a lot of cool things to do with my day.  The camp host at Amity, however, said that there was nothing to do. LOL.

In passing forward cool recommendations: check out Cheaha State Park, or maybe just drive a little extra and stay there instead.

I have really been enjoying my stay at this campground but I can see how it wouldn't be for everybody, mainly RVS.

The location to the State Park cannot be beat.  I stayed here for two nights and spent almost the entire day at the State park.  HOT TIP: Go to the South side for tubing and early as you can.  I got in right before the school kids came to ruin the fun.  The North side gate is right next to the campground and provides two swimming holes.

Ok, back to the campground: the main building is where they have the office, restrooms, game room and showers behind the building.  The camp offers firewood and ice deliveries to your camp for a fee.

There are animals of plenty in this campground.  They use animals to curb the bugs and overgrowth.  Most of them roam free for parts of the day.  And I do have to say that the animals are doing a great job.  So far I've seen pigs, goats, a donkey, chickens, guineafowl, cats and dogs.  When I was here they had just purchased a new flock of baby chickens and turkeys.  All of the animals are either friendly or a tad skittish, so respect their space.

Sites offered are either primitive, camping with electric or with water and electric.  There are two community sinks with potable water.  There is also a dump station if you're into that sort of thing.  There's only one toilet per gender and two showers out back.  I can see how that would be a problem at the height of the season but I had absolutely no trouble with it while visiting during the week in late May.

The only thing I didn't enjoy about this campground was the incredibly fine sand it has.  I've only been in Florida for two days so I don't know if that's common or not.  It's not a mark against the campground, cuz nature, just something to think about especially if it will rain during your stay or if you have a large RV.

Drove in here after hours. The cell service is great and the camp host is kind and friendly. I checked in with him in the evening and he told me to park and pay in the morning. This was supposed to be a one-night stop but I’m going to take advantage of the good service and hiking trails for another evening. Tent/car sites have electrical and drinking water spouts. The showers could use a deep clean but the water is nice and hot. There’s a lot of sites but they’re pretty close together. Lots of trees but no brush for noise or privacy. Little pricey at $34 bucks a night but it looks like they have laundry. Overall, I’d say this is a good place to clean up and plan your next adventure while enjoying some hiking.

Came through this campground because the cell service was good (Verizon) and I needed a day to plan between Robbinsville and Asheville. Verizon cell service is POOR on the primitive camping side. I’ve been trying for waterfront campgrounds and this ticked the box. The water is only accessible for swimming from tent site 6, but that site does not have a level place to park. I went with 5 which is closest to the water but not a swimming area. if someone has reserved 6, you cannot use that access point Park is well kept. Bathrooms are clean and recently remodeled. The biggest downside for me was that alcohol & tobacco are not allowed.

The only downside to this campground is that for half of the sites the parking is across the small access road. This would be most ideal for tent camping.

I came here for a car meet weekend and was incredibly happy with my stay. The owner has wonderfully dry sense of humor and he’s just about the sweetest person I’ve ever met. Some sites have electric, there’s plenty of water spigots and the showers are nice and hot. This well maintained campground is on a steep incline with leveled out parking spaces.

I stayed here during a red flag warning and the wind wasn’t too bad. I had the water/electric hookup section all to myself with the camp host nearby. The bathrooms could’ve used a cleaning and I think the primitive camp sites only had pit toilets. It provided a lovely break from the road and added a little extra landscape to the usual Texas drive. That being said I wouldn’t exactly call this a lake campground for the time being.
