A very relaxing stay. We camped on site 83, which gave us great views and access to the lake. The site was easy to back into, and the connections all worked great.
We will be back again.

We were in site #71 which is right on the water (most sites are) and we had this lovely deck with a picnic table and a lower area with a fire ring. The power is 30amp, but there are some sites with 50amp service. That being said, I have a Class A and on that 30amps, I could run both air conditioners plus the microwave all at once! Not sure why, but did it accidentally on day one and was surprised. I only popped the breaker when I added a hot plate... lol. No sewer, but I think the whole park is that way. Nice dump stations though. The bathrooms are far away and not so great. I'd advise to count those out. I did get an invasion of tiny ants. We ran to Walmart and bought Terro ant bait and a jug of Home Defense and I sprayed anything touching the ground. They went away in a day and didn't bother us again for a week.
Now to the Internet service. For us, it was amazing. We have a 5g T-Mobile Home Internet modem. Our speeds were 850 down and 150 up. I'm a very technical person (TV engineer and Director for 40 years) and anything technical interests me. So I'm always sensitive to things like the internet. This service has been great for the past three years.
Go visit the West Point Dam and power station in the park system. Check out the visitor's center too. Go visit the town of West Point as it's a real slice of rural Georgia and the town is split across the state line of Alabama. When you are exploring, keep your eye on the time change. There is a drive-through wild animal park called: Wild Animal Safari in Pine Mountain. You can feed all kinds of animals from your car or their bus. FDR's "Little White House" has the actual home closed along with his pool. Call before you drive all the way over there. We learned the hard way. Enjoy the solitude.

Great location at a true value price. COE locations are usually always great. RSH is especially nice, well run and well maintained. Thanks.

Site 101 was very nice waterfront flat pull through. Beware the a u turn was necessary for a Motorhome to get into to it without unhooking the tow vehicle. View was beautiful, sun was behind us.

I LOVE this park! The campsites are spacious, secluded and quiet. COE campgrounds are the only way to go.

This park is awesome if you like water fun. We do paddle boarding and kayaking and swimming. You have more privacy than some other parks. You will be nestled under the trees and enjoying the good life. If you need groceries, you will have to drive but it’s worth it. I go every year for my birthday.
