Campground was very well kept. No trash along road ways. Appreciate the soap and paper towels in bathrooms. So many COE parks don’t supply soap. Bugs in bathroom were a problem this year. Bushwacker Trail was closed. A favorite. Hope they fix it. Be aware of campsite location. Hard to back into some. Nice gate attendants.

Loved Ft. Hamby, such a quiet peaceful park. Loved that most sites were private ,wooded and spacious. Staff was so helpful and pleasant. Disc golf course was fun but challenging, beach and marina well maintained. Will definitely return.

Always a great experience at Fort Hamby. One of our favorite places to camp. By far the cleanest bathhouse of all the places we visit. Friendly staff. Love all the trees and the seclusion of the sites. Already have another reservation for this year.

We love coming to Ft Hamby. We were there almost 2 week fishing. through something. There is a lot of pot holes and one section of bank is caving in. You can see under the road.

We were in Site 6 - a pull thru and one of the few sites in the park that will accommodate our 38' 5th wheel and 4 door dually truck. It was challenging to get level because the site turns uphill about half way in but did leave enough room for the trailer to sit level ground with just a bit of leveling. The awning and door face the woods and there is a nice grill, fire pit and table there for an intimate private setting which we like. The bathhouse is just one site away so very convenient. We would consider this park again for a week. It is just tight and not what I would want to have to go through for just an overnight or two. We stayed here until we could get into another park that we had stayed in a few years ago.

The sites are decent however need some maintenance. The landscaping timbers were rotting and some were missing. The bath house was disgusting! There were literally dozens and dozens of stink bugs and several cock roaches, They really need to clean that up. Several bad potholes on the roads inside the camping area.

Nice facilities, but the people next to us were rude and loud. I couldn’t find a number to call to get security. He was yelling at another person who kindly asked him to turn off his music and stop yelling. I was a bit nervous and didn’t feel safe with my daughter. We left early the next morning.
