Pickwick Landing State Park Campground

We have a 2wk stay here, and so far, it's been lovely! We are on site 24, it's extremely spacious and pretty much private. We are sitting on quite the incline. Our tongue is sitting on the ground, and we're still not level. There isn't a host in this part, which is fine with us. We have electricity and water hookup. There's a bath house that is centrally located with showers. There's a primitive campground, marina, boat ramp, and cabins available. I see that there is also an inn and restaurant just past the marina as well. Not much for trails.

If you like short hiking in the woods and water, this is a great place! Spacious sites. No check-in, just prepay and park! Was a little busy when we arrived on the weekend, but cleared out on Sunday. Note, do not let them assign you to site 36, for any size rig! Bad site, big incline, no good spot to “set up” outside. We were lucky to find spot 40, had auto jacks maxed out, but it worked! And large spaces between neighbors. Water and electric worked well. All good for the price especially!

Terrific campground if you like space between the sites. Personally, I do not like campgrounds that feel like a parking lot. 2 reasons we could not give 5 stars is, 1) the sites are very uneven, 2) Road noise, especially at night ( not very close but close enough to hear). Other than that, spacious sites with a multitude of mature trees and hiking paths.

Well-maintained campsites with plenty of space between. Great beginner level easy to walk trails with unexpected surprises such as a marked cistern, friendly small wildlife, and even a geocache site scattered along the well-marked paths. Clean, heated, bathrooms and showers. Friendly staff who cheerfully went out of their way to see that we were settled in well. Thank you!

We're in site #13 with a back-in decline. The pad is asphalt what's left of it. We can see that most sites are downhill making it difficult to level a camper. Never had the water connection at the door of the camper, but we made it work. Just awkward trying to put out my mat under the awning. So far it's been pretty quiet. The wind must be blowing away from the campground because we don't smell the pulpwood plant up the road. 🤗
