What Guests Are Saying

Longleaf Campground offers a clean, spacious, and peaceful environment with well-maintained facilities and friendly staff. Visitors appreciate the short walk to the visitor center for amenities and the charming wildlife experience, including birds and other animals. However, it's important to note that there is no running water at the campground, and some sites may lack privacy due to proximity to others.

I hiked the trails in the morning, then cycled in the afternoon, then hiked again until dinner. The trails and the roads were both quiet. a peaceful getaway. toilet was clean as was the campsite. I couldn't ask for more. this was my third annual trip

Campsites were spacious and nice and the grill was very good- adjustable. The higher number campsites are the farther from the parking lot but still not too far.

We had a very nice campsite. We had site 1, so we were close to the parking lot. The sites weren't clearly labeled, and the sign for site 2 was 20 yards past the camp area so we accidentally set up in the wrong location. Fortunately, nobody was in site 2 for the night, just be aware. The sites were in a tree line so there was plenty of shade and places for hammocks. The sites were mostly clear of debris and trash.

The park is beautiful. We enjoyed the campground and the wonderful trails. We heard owls, coyotes and even a whippoorwill
