Great campground when the boat ramps and all camping loops are open.

We enjoyed our visit. The campground was quiet with mostly adults. Our site had beautiful trees and great access to launch the kayak.The showers & restrooms were clean, but they do not supply soap in the restroom. For the reservation price, there should be soap to wash hands. It was inconvenient to remember to bring ours each time.Several sites were closed due to recent flooding.

We visit Hanks Creek often. This trip we arrived and got unhooked and set up to discover there was no electricity at our site. When I opened the box the inside panel fell out on the ground. I went to the host to report the issue. The host said that site had just been worked on and they thought it was ready. The host moved us to another site and later we met other campers that had booked on the same loop and they had to move also due to the sites not having electricity either. Hanks Creek was severely damaged due to flooding but the COE should have done a better job of making sure the sites that were open had been completely repaired. Very inconvenient to get all set up to find out the site is dead!

The park is wonderful and the campground hosts were very nice. BUT........on day two a war started. We learned that there is a house across the street where a group of men shoot off semi-automatic rifles regularly, ALL DAY LONG! It was truly horrendous. We packed up and left the next day because we were informed that sometimes they do this for several days in a row. So sad because it really is a beautiful campground.

Great park, we stayed over Christmas and New Years. The fishing was great, caught bass from the bank everyday. Great water views. Mostly quiet except for a bit of gunfire in the area in the evenings. Flys were a problem but tolerable. A lot of the park was shut down due to hurricane damage. We would give it another stay.

Site was not as long as indicated. We were told we could park our cargo trailer on the grass, but it was soggy and we would've gotten stuck. No cell/internet signal. Camp host was off duty.

Host were great help. Unlike some parks I enjoyed the host.

The day pavilion is nice to use for get togethers. Nice cover with plenty of tables and benches and electricity and trash cans with bags. Just remember to bring tablecloths because the tabletops are hard to clean and a broom especially if its windy to handle the leaves. Bathrooms are close and playground is a definite plus
@GeneDani13050A · Camped on Apr 6, 2024 at Campsite #12
We stayed two nights, arriving on a Friday. The camp host was very helpful and nice. We were at site 12 which had a nice picnic area and a view of the water. There were large groups of people camping near by - one had 7-8 vehicles and were quite loud during the day. They turned the music down at 10pm but there were kids riding their bikes and being loud till midnight. There were also cars going by and a group of people walking (and talking loudly) at 4:30am. Site 12 is a pull-through along the road, so any noise is quite noticeable. Other sites are set back and might not have the noise issue.The next night was much quieter.

Alligators are everywhere. Water is too low, but I know they are working on the dam. Do you know how long it will before they are finished?
@JeremyB2902799 · Camped on Mar 28, 2024 at Campsite #33
Very Friendly staff and pretty well maintained campsites.
@DonM8133900 · Camped on Mar 24, 2024 at Campsite #6
Always clean and quiet, I enjoy coming to Hanks Creek. All the folks I have met in the park are very friendly and respectful. My brother and I always catch fish there and really enjoy our time spent together. Looking forward to our next camping trip. The park host are always friendly and helpful if you need anything.

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.
