The host and their family were great. The host greeted me when I arrived and explained that the shower was running continuously due to damage from the recent polar storm. The host also helped direct me to a clearing that was good for stargazing. The hosts son was helpful as well, and gave me directions that helped me find certain native plant species that I wanted to see. The stargazing was great, the campsite was clean. The restrooms were always clean and stocked with soap, toilet paper, & paper towels. The shower running continuously was not a problem because the water was comfortably warm and draining well. Overall great experience.

Loved it and will come back. The water in the men's room shower was running 24 7 because the valve was broken from it freezing and couldn't be shut off. The host has asked that it be repaired. Also the host had no idea who is coming and going through the national park website because his access to that site has been shut down. We had to run a squatter off our reserved site. Not complaining, just constructive comments.

Largest campsites of any COE, State, County, Natl Forest RV campgrounds we have visited. More like a "lot" than a "site." Dead silent, thanks to courteous and few campers and isolated location.

Nice quiet campground with showers! Will be staying here anytime I'm in the area,
@LoriW4261886 · Camped on Feb 5, 2025 at Campsite #10

Wonderful! Campground, nice hiking at the campground and beautiful places to go to in the surrounding area. The campground was quiet, it was kept clean. The hosts were terrific. All in all I could not have asked for a better experience. I'll be back

We had a great time. Trails, kayak access to beautiful water, and endless dirt roads for cycling! The host, Jay, was really helpful, and his son kept us stocked with firewood and fire starter. Our highlight was meeting his wonderful young dog, Bruno - our dog thoroughly enjoyed playing and running with him! We highly recommend this gem of the Apalachicola NF!

Excellent campsite in the woods. Dark sky with amazing start. Clean sites and friendly hosts. Options for swimming and hiking. Could hear the owls at night!Only one small thing: noice of the hunting dogs starting early in the morning. Even a dog and vehicle on the campgrounds. That doesn't match our expectations of a natural environment and camping in a state forest.
@ToddW6212254 · Camped on Feb 23, 2024 at Campsite #16
Very quaint campground. Was roomie enough for our 40 class A. Water hook up only. Bath houses could be a little cleaner but were adequate. Will visit here again
@michaelg734741 · Camped on Feb 23, 2024 at Campsite #8
Great quiet campground. Disappointed with the loop trail being underwater.
@LoriW4261886 · Camped on Feb 7, 2024 at Campsite #16
What a wonderful Campground. The sites were very large. The bathroom was clean and well stocked. The Campground host was very friendly and helpful. I will definitely stay here again.

Super nice camp host, beautiful campground. Small and simple, peaceful with very nice campsites. No cell service.
@DonnaS6863498 · Camped on Jan 31, 2024 at Campsite #15
We have stayed at this park the last three years, while taking our winter trip. As stated in the reservation notes this park does not provide electric, but our generator works well for us. This is a quite park, with clean restrooms. The lake is nice to hike around, with other trails to hike. This past January we were able to call an owl in, just above our campsite. It stay for quite awhile. About a half hour drive you can arrive in Eastpoint, FL, where you can take the bridge to St George Island, and spend the day on the beach. We are very happy with this park.

Beautiful campground with lots of room between sites. Nice trail system for wonderful hikes. Jay and Bruno (the campground hosts) were very nice and professional at the same time. The only reason I did not give 5 stars was for some maintenance issues. The non potable water at the dump sight had a serious leak at the top of the hose stand, a light was out in the bathroom and the shower heads need replacing badly. We will definitely go back there again.
@KenH4960616 · Camped on Dec 30, 2023 at Campsite #10
Beautiful location near the Apalachicola River. Lots of potential for hiking and wildlife viewing. The facilities and trails needed some maintenance work. Lots of potential with a little TLC.
@StevenT9884610 · Camped on Dec 29, 2023 at Campsite #19
Wright Lake is a wonderful facility. The camp host is great. The bathhouses are well kept. We loved how spacious it is.

@RebeccaF466555 · Camped on Apr 28, 2023 at Campsite #8
Have been there before and liked. It. Under utilized this campground and Camel are hard to find on rec . Gov site. Water hose at dump sote needs to be replaced.
@MaryAnnS412375 · Camped on Apr 13, 2023 at Campsite #18
Very quiet and peaceful; slightly more rustic than the description indicated. The restrooms were clean and the showers had hot water. Great star gazing at night. Although the website mentions swimming as a possible activity, a sign at the campground cautions you that, if you do swim, you should be alert for snakes and alligators.

Dave was a great host. Bathrooms and showers are very nice.
@MarkR9967928 · Camped on Mar 5, 2023 at Campsite #18
Nice camp sites but the facilities were absolutely disgusting!! Left early because of that. Looks like the place has never been cleaned. Mold and stuff (not sure what was on the floors! ) all over.
@DavidH4978786 · Camped on Mar 4, 2023 at Campsite #8
Quiet campground, Very well maintained. The on-site water was nice.
The 4-mile trail could use a little work, some down trees & overgrowth. Otherwise both trails were well marked and easy to hike.

Thanks to all our Supporting Members

@BranJen - Santa Clara, CA

I wanted to thank you for this site and especially for the notifications feature. Thanks to your site and my subscription I was able to book a campsite I've been annoyingly trying to book for 5 years unsuccessfully. So thank you.

@Wondering - Oregon

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.

@CarlaLThompson - Colorado

I just love this site and I tell everyone about it! It's so competitive to secure desired campsites and the alerts really help track when sites free up. The best part of this story is our alert notified a cancellation the next day!!!!!! Just incredible!!!
