Fort Hamby Park

Enjoyed our stay, very clean and well kept. Nice shaded site.

This was the most beautiful campground with nice large private RV spots. Easy walk to the water and a beautiful trail. You won’t be disappointed if you visit here!

We stayed on site 26 it was secluded and quiet. It is a bit away from the bathroom if you are going in pop-up with no bathroom! Do remember you will need to drive to the swimming area but other than that the place is clean and quiet bathhouses were also well maintained!

We have been doing our family reunion at Shelter Ann at Fort Hamby for years. On this particular day, when we arrived, the shelter was nasty. There was leftover nasty rotten food on the floors and a horrible smell coming from the trash cans. There had obviously been a birthday party at some point and there was leftover trash and confetti all over the place. I realize funding has been cut for a lot of parks, but the shelter really needs fixing up. It’s sad seeing it get a lot of age on it and a wood rotting and needing repair!
We love coming here and it’s always a pleasant experience, but she needs a little TLC so we can continue coming here for years to come!

Very nice campground.

In general I had a great experience there. The only thing holding back from 5 stars is that after the Memorial Day weekend there was no hot water in the shower.

I was not very happy with my experience this time.We did not have hot water for showers. We reported the problem to the hosts at the campground. They reported it to the people that are contracted to do repairs. They attempted to do the repairs on a couple of occasions, but it did not happen during our stay. We were leaving on Saturday and they had some people there on Friday afternoon and we were told it had been repaired. Friday night there was no hot water again. The bathrooms were not cleaned properly either. We have been there multiple times and have never had a bad experience until now. I understand that there have been cuts to the budget for cleaning etc. but, there is no excuse for them not to clean it good when they are there. We also did not have lighting at night after 11pm. I also told them in the past that the lights apparently were on a timer and they would come on around dusk and stay on until dawn. They would turn off around 11pm. I sometimes have to go during the night and it was very dark outside. They do not have any street lights either. I will really have to think twice about coming again.

It would be good to add that the water is not potable and for campers to bring fresh water for drinking to the camp site.

The site was VERY clean and the views are stunning!!! The hookups were very well maintained and personnel were always kind and welcoming. We will be back to enjoy this site again!!! Thank you so much for creating such a beautiful area!

We camped in the upper loop. No one was camping in that loop when we got there and we were the only ones in that loop until our last day there. The middle loop didn’t have a working restroom so the upper loop was the only loop with running water and showers. This campground is not good for older people riding bikes as it is basically on a hillside. The first problem we ran into was getting into the campground. It is gated and we weren’t told to punch in everything along with the numbers. I like camping in a gated campground as there are no people riding through. I like to fish but I didn’t bring my boat and soon found that bank fishing on this side of the lake is very limited. This campground is over a mile away from busy 421 and along with no one just riding through it is a very peaceful campground. We do plan to camp here again but instead of bringing our bikes I’ll have my kayak with me next time.
