It was a lovely park, clean restrooms, showers, dump station and site well maintained. The view was magnificent and the weather for the most part cooperated. We've had an RV for almost three years but this was our first RV camping experience, and it was sooo good! Lost our home in Hurricane Michael and lived in the RV, in our back yard for quite some time. It felt so good to get away and enjoy stress less and timeless relaxation with No to do list hanging over us. Thank you for maintaining that park in the manner you do. We'll be back!!

We love Old Federal. The location is beautiful and the park is well-kept. Sites are spacious, and almost every site easily fits our 39’ motorhome. It is definitely a local favorite for us.

Old Federal campground is a great place. The sites are roomy and the majority of them are right on the water. The park is well maintained and the hosts were very pleasant. Old Federal has always been one of my favorite campgrounds as a weekend get away from Atlanta.

This was my first time at this campground, I brought my 2 kids, 6 & 4, and were were on site #66. We really loved it, it was quiet, the sites were clean and not too close together. Most of the sites are right on the water, so you get great views and sunrises and sunsets. The beach area was nice and clean, and there was ample shade there throughout the day, so no need to drag a shelter or something to it. The playground right beside the beach in minimal, but our kids still enjoyed it. The hosts were kind enough, I didn't really speak with them except at check in. We really like it, and we are definitely going to go back.

90% of the camp sites have some type of water access and water view. Very clean campsites. Bathrooms are clean but need to be updated.
