County page lists daily park access 8am–8pm; confirm late-day entry

  • Chattahoochee River frontage
  • Hiking and equestrian trails
  • Primitive river-area camping

Before you go

  • Call before a late arrival because the county page conflicts between an 8pm park close and a 5pm contact-window close.
  • Confirm current day-use and campsite charges; an older fee PDF is not treated as current pricing.
  • Campsites have no hookups, water or power. Self-contained RVs are allowed, but the park has no dump station.
  • Camping is limited to five nights, and reservations have separate rules.
