Found our new favorite Georgia COE park.
We stayed in site #72 and absolutely loved it.
Beautiful views and refreshing breeze from the water.

We had an awesome time in the park, very clean and beautiful! The two women host that have been at the park for an extended time, not sure of their names are very nice and make you feel welcome. They go out of their way to speak to you and make sure everything is going well. They make the stay worthwhile!

아틀란타에서 가까운 거리에 위치하고 있어 접근이 용이하고 깨끗하게 정리된 캠핑사이트는 아주 평안한 마음을 준다. 넓은 호수를 바라볼 수 있어서 더욱 좋았다. 그런데 샤워실 바닥에 물이 많이 고여 있어서 좀 불편했다.

The people and sites are great. We have stayed there many times and love it. This time was not so fun. A storm and tornado or microburst hit us on site 55 and it flipped our 37 ft trailer over. We were ok but trailer totaled. The staff and other campers were so helpful and kind. Obviously not their fault!! Two other trailers where blown over. There are some strong storms that come across the lake but this was unique. At least 100mph winds. But I would definitely recommend Old Federal.

This is the second time we visited Old Federal this year. It is a great park and most of the sites have Great Lake views. The staff is excellent.

Tents should not be allowed to rent a RV spot and need to cut grass in all areas.

The lady at the check-in was so pleasant and a joy to talk to. It makes for a better experience when
you encounter friendly people.

We had a wonderful time & our site #58 was amazing but it was a little challenging due to the drop off at the end of the site. Luckily we had extra blocks & could manage to support the backend of the camper. With no picture available of the site online, I’m glad someone else posted their experience there. The bath house needed better lighting. The staff was very courteous & very helpful.
