Aptly named as 2/3 of the sites are under beautiful, huge oak trees streaming with Spanish moss. This is our second time here. The park is very convenient to I-10 and downtown Tallahassee. There are several permanent and seasonal sites, but they are in fairly good repair, not too dumpy, and in separate rows from the overnight spots. Pads are gravel and have concrete patio slabs. Most sites are out of level more than our leveling jacks. We had to drive up on blocks to get level. There are no amenities here. However, the Wi-Fi connection was the fastest and most reliable that we have had full-timing in the last 6 months. Highway noise was annoying for a couple hours during evening rush hour, but no problem after that. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here a week while in Tallahassee. It is the only park within the city, and is convenient to everything within 5-15 minutes. This is not a good park for you if you are not self-contained. There is one bathroom for each gender, so you may have to wait a while (the shower is also in the bathroom). No paper towels, so bring your own towel. There are many permanent or semi-permanent residents here; but the park is clean, very quiet, and the staff are friendly. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We used this park as a sleep-over on a night that the temperature was at the freezing mark so we stayed bundled up inside and did not see much of the park. I did like the easy access and the friendly escort who guided us in. The location is great if you are going to visit the area for a few days as it is not smack up against the Interstate. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Not many park choices going through Tallahassee. This park has hard gravel roads and sites. Easy access from I-10, about two miles on a fairly busy 4-lane highway. Power and cable TV were good. It's usually crowded so best to call ahead: especially during football season or other Florida State University events. We camped here in a Motorhome.

OK park. Quiet with little road noise. Lots of full time residents. Sites were not really marked well. Staff was friendly. Level site and easy to get into. Very good park for an overnight stop. Almost missed the entrance so if you are going north to get to the park take your time and watch carefully. Facilities were O\K. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The staff was excellent and friendly. Very clean and quiet. This park should be a 10, however it does not have a pool. Wi-Fi was strong and there was a Hugh selection of cable channels. Grocery stores, restaurants, and the Interstate are all very close. Nice roomy spots with concrete pads. My wife and I will definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Very clean park! It was nice to park on rocks and have a nice concrete patio and beautiful green grass (no dirt!). The large oaks are beautiful and the "Big Oak" is amazing! It is obvious the owners take pride in keeping this park immaculate. We enjoyed the shade. Great location with grocery store, Wal-Mart, lots of restaurants close by and easy access to I-10. Also excellent Wi-Fi and lots of cable stations. I give this park a 9 only because it doesn't have a swimming pool. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I have stayed here and let me tell you; they put us on a site in the lowest part of the campground. The next morning, their sewer system had overflowed and raw sewage was flooding our site. I waded out to unplug my RV and water hose. I left my sewer hose there. What a nightmare this place was....I will never go back there!!! I know accidents happen, BUT, routine maintenance on a sewer system would have prevented this problem. We camped here in a Motorhome.

What a delightful place. Gorgeous, well-stoned RV park full of old-growth oak trees but, yet, we were still able to get our satellite. Spaces are generous and level, electricity, cable, and water were great, and wi-fi was outstanding. Several older ladies run this park and they are so pleasant. We didn't want to unhook but ran out of soft drinks, and one of them went to the store for us at no charge! You don't find many parks like this anymore. We will definitely return.

Due to unforeseen circumstances we found ourselves in this campground again and even though our first visit was less than desirable we are so happy we gave it a second chance. The front office was kind, polite, and extremely helpful. They went above and beyond to make our stay a pleasant one. We actually have stayed here two more times since our first review and we would rate them a ten. If you are in the area, this is the campground to stay at. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is conveniently located to I-10 with easy access for big rigs. Hook ups are well positioned and work properly. Our site was not level and the Wi-Fi did not work. When I went to the office to ask about the Wi-Fi I was told that William would come by my site to check it out. 30 minutes later a lady came by and said William would not get off the lawnmower, but she would try to get him to come by. We left the next morning, and William still had not come. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We had no problem getting into our site with our 40 foot MH and back out to the road the next day. The people in the office were friendly and we were led to our site. We had called ahead for reservations and they held a site for us with just our last name. The park was clean and quiet. We will stop here again as we make our way from Florida to the north.

We had a level pull through for our 40' and space for the tow as well. Quiet even with every site full by evening. Friendly staff but not up on area attractions advertised on their brochure. had no idea how to get to some points of interest. The "Big Oak" is really huge - a record tree and the park is shady. Tight fit for big rigs entering and leaving. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a beautiful clean park. The trees are huge and the sites are wide. The man that led me to my site noticed leaves on the cement pad so he went and got a broom to clean it off.

The only positive that I can comment on this campground is the beautiful Oak trees on the property. This should be your last resort for a one night stay if not keep going. You need codes to get to the bathroom and yet they were still not clean. We had just picked up our new motorhome and were having some difficulties honking down for the night it was 9:30 PM well the other campers came out to ask all sorts of questions? Did we hit lotto? Is our engine a Cummins/turbo? Not helping but rather adding to what was already a stressful situation. The icing on the cake was the camper next to our site B8 a woman who came out and asked us "How much longer will we be?" We explained we were having some difficulties and she could careless she raised her voice louder and spoke firmly "How Much Longer Will You Be???" Needless to say, we got out of there in the AM as fast as we could and closed the door to that chapter...we would stay in a rest area on the side of the road before going back to this campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We have stayed at this campground three times, and always look forward to it. It is named for the 350-year-old royal oak in the middle of the campground, and it is the most beautiful tree I've ever seen. That alone would make this worth staying here. They are very pet friendly and adjoin a large field where you can exercise your dog. We found it quiet even though it's nearly in the city. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a clean CG with gravel pads and a little grass. We didn't want to be right up front (by the road) so took a site in the back with no trees, but plenty of mosquito's! The staff was accommodating and pleasant. The restrooms and laundry room are clean. Plenty of TV channels and good internet reception. Lots of semi-permanent/permanent rigs, so not the most attractive, but a good overnight site. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice overnight stop for us on our way across the panhandle. Friendly and helpful staff. We were in a nice site where we got satellite reception, but if you get on a site under the HUGE oak trees, be prepared for occasional barrages of acorns when a breeze comes up (an autumn phenomenon). A pretty park with lots of restaurants within a few miles. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for an overnight stop. The sites are gravel, but pretty level. The staff was very friendly, and a local sheriff lives on the grounds. Like the name says most of the sites are under large oak trees, so plenty of shade. The cable TV was working great, lots of channels. It looked like they were doing work on some of the sites so they must be working to make the place better. It is about 4.5 hours from the house so we might go back again.

This park is had a Woodall's rating of 4, how it got that rating is beyond me. It should be been given a 2 or 3 at the most. The sites are gravel with very little grass. It is very dusty from cars on the road. This park would be an overnight stay only but, I would never plan on spending any extended time here. The park is old and needs major upgrading on the sites and roads. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Manager Scottie, welcolmed us late in the evening & was very helpful in getting us settled in & hookedup, inviting us to register in the morning noting that we looked tired. *(Note: See review on Tallahasse RV Park). The 300 year old oaks on the property were spectacular, the coffee was hot & free & our dog was welcomed with biscuits! Foks were all super nice & there was plenty of space, quiet & shade. There was a variety of rigs, ages & a local Sheriff that seemed to reside there fulll time. We will be back! We camped here in a Motorhome.

A nice campground with a very friendly staff. We felt very safe as there were about 4 or 5 state troopers that we staying in the park while attending a school in Tallahassee. The biggest problem is that they only have a single shower and restroom each for men and women, and they are very small at that. There was plenty of shade, but the close proximity to a main highway made for lots of traffic noise. I would stay again, but request a space towards the back of the park.

About the best thing that I can say about this campground is that the cable TV works. The sites are narrow, gravel and not level. Many of the sites are occupied by long term residents that haven't spent a lot of time on landscaping or anything else. We were parked right next to the wifi tower and it only worked occasionally so I can imagine how poor the connection is on the edges of the park. We were here for an overnight stay and I can assure you that we left as early as possible the next day. Do yourself a favor, save your $33 and park in a Wal-Mart parking lot.

Hard to believe a park this big only has one bathroom, with the shower and toilet combined...but I was lucky during my brief visit and didn't have to wait. Most of the RVers here have big rigs and use their own showers, not me, and the many residents crammed in the back area are self-contained. Very nice setting with huge live oaks, spacious sites for travelers, good cable tv. Wifi wasn't working. Hosts very nice, friendly. A decent park that could be a lot better.

Don't even bother with this park if it is an FSU game weekend. I tried all summer to get a space and they kept putting me off with the excuse they hadn't made their layouts-- whatever that maybe, since in my opinion you either know or don't know if you have spaces available. Would call and they would say they would get back to me and never would-- don't bother with this one! We camped here in a Motorhome.

We spent the weekend at this campground during the first Florida State Football home game. We checked in on a Friday afternoon, and was quickly checked in and escorted to our site. The campground was completely booked for the weekend, however many of the sites are occupied by long term campers/residents. We did not find the campground to be overly tightly packed. We had sufficient room for our 35 ft motorhome and pickup truck. The staff was extremely friendly. The park was also pet friendly. Even though it was a game weekend, the park was quiet. The big drawback here is as stated previously, the lack of bathrooms. There is 1 toilet and shower for the men, and 1 toilet and shower for the ladies. The site we were on was very shaded, but not the most level. This campground is extremely close to all Tallahassee has to offer and there are many services very close by. We would definitely stay here again. Reserve early if coming during the college football season, they fill up fast as there are many sites occupied by longer term campers, so there is a more limited amount of overnight camping available. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We arrived when it was getting dark but set up okay on a corner site. The only drawback we found was a single men's john, and a single women's john for an 80-site park. Seems to me that this woul be a problem when the park was full. That wasn't the case the night we stayed. I would stay there again for an overnight stay. The park is located way off the Interstate so was very quiet at night. The staff was accomodating and helpful. We camped here in a Motorhome.

There is only one bath/shower room for each sex. If occupied , it will not be available for a while , this is the only one you can use, really !! The path way is narrow and not in good condition.

Just awful. Someone took a piece of land and put hook ups on it. I couldn't tell where the roads ended and the campsites started. We were approach by a panhandler that lives in the park. We reserved a pull through and when we arrived we were told there were none left. The lady was very rude borderline pychotic. Dogs ran loose in the park. If you washed oily, grease filled rags in the washers it may clean them up because they were nasty. This park should be condemned. We unfortunately camped here because it was late and needed to get off the road to rest. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Arrived in the afternoon with friends following in another bus. Registration was hectic with lots of people in the office seemingly just milling about and chatting. The lady behind the desk, her name was "Sam", was somewhat impatient and curt. After a long wait, a man arrived to show us into our sites. We followed behind his golf cart through the park, then into a very tight narrow road, and then into a too-tight turn to get into our too-tight site, scraping the top of our rig with tree branches in the process. Don't understand why they put us in this site when we had called ahead and reserved for two 45 foot Prevosts. Stayed the night and left early the next morning. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This was our fourth stay in two years as an overnight stop on our way to the Keys. The good: WIFI available and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Pet friendly and easy access to I10. The bad: Park is showing its age and needs sprucing up; buildings need fixing, painting and some sheds just need to be torn down. Rates raised again, getting expensive and money not being put back into the park ($30 with Good Sam discount for 30 amp electric and water – no sewer, cable was terribly fuzzy). Permanent sites make up about 50% of the park and some need to be cleaned up. An old Airstream trailer had green mold growing on top, a 5th wheel covered on top with blue tarp, lots of old chairs, junk, etc. sitting outside of others. When we arrived the park was full to overflowing. A 45 ft motorhome and large 5th wheel got stuffed into too small spaces. Gives the impression the park owners are more interested in $$$ then trying to provide a clean, pleasant park. Still, considering the alternatives in the area we would stay here again but only as an overnight stop. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Restrooms were clean but very small and inadequate with only 1 shower and commode each for
male and female for the whole park. Voltage was low,and they will not allow you to park yourself. After registering we had to sit in our vehicle for several minutes before someone showed up to lead us to our site. This is unnecessary. Good location to visit the capitol but rather expensive.

Although the Woodall's advertisement claimed 62 sites, they only had one "overnight" site and it was by Highway 90 "on the grass, beside the fence". A hole had been cut in the fence for the electrical cord and the water hose. We did not hook up the water because the faucet was bent. No sewer connection was available at this site. The women's restroom was locked and when I got the key and opened it, I decided to pass it up and returned the key. It did not look as if anyone had been in there in a long time. Our "site" was just a grassy area but we were fortunate that it was distanced from the rows and rows of other RV's set up for semi-permanent living by construction workers on a nearby electrical utility project. We ran our fan all night to drown out the noise from the very nearby highway. Despite all this, the lady who registered us was very nice and we had a good night's sleep. This is a very old campground, I remember it from the '60's when it was called Bell's Lakeside Campground. I believe it was safe, we did have electricity, and we had an appointment to have our RV worked on at 7:30 the next morning just two miles down the road. Otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for a week, it is not as bad as some of the comments make it look. Yes the streets are dirt and the sites are dirt. But, you have to realize that dirt is all there is here, you're in the panhandle of Florida. The staff were helpful and the park was clean. The bathrooms were old but clean and the laundry was excellent. Don't believe that you are going to find any parks on I-10 that are any better. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The couple at check in were the only good thing this park has going for it. Wi-Fi did not work at all. Thank God it didn't rain the mud would have been unbearable. Roads were very rough. This is the worst KOA I have stayed in since going on the road 10 years ago. Next time I will forgo convenience for travel and stay in Tallahassee and drive to Monticello. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We paid more tonight than we have for a long time at a KOA and it is way down the list in quality. Dirt roads ... very little grass ... mostly sandy sights. When we arrived, they were trying to gather up leaves for disposal, except they were creating a huge cloud of dust which covered everything in the way the wind was blowing. Facilities are clean, but aged. Very close to the interstate highway, so road noise is quite evident. Would not stay here again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I set up a 3 month extended stay with the owners of the park and paid for my first month. Eleven days into the stay the owners came to me and told me that they do not like to rent the cabins by the month because they make more money off of them by the day and that I had to leave the cabin. She offered to move me into what they call park models. This single wide was nice but nearly twice the price. The other was a 20 foot trailer that had been left open to the elements and had a smell of mold. I told the owner that I was happy where I was and had paid her. If she wanted me to leave she should refund me for the entire month. The next day her son tried to hand me an envelope with an unknown amount of cash and told me to leave. I agree with others here; go anywhere else, this place is not worth your time or money. The Wi-Fi only works in the office; you can not get it anywhere else. It is actually hanging on a pole that is leaning over with a Tupperware dish (that has partially fallen off) to protect it from the rain . The pool is drained and full of black water. They say they will refill it in the spring. The lake is actually a run off pond and looks highly polluted. They wont let you swim in it, but they still post pictures of people catching fish in it. There are so many run down trailers that look like they have been there for years that the place seems to be like a cheap trailer park. I never felt safe and I am glad I am gone. They claim they have 24hour security, but I never saw any security patrols in the time I was there. We camped here in a Campground Cabin.

We pulled in and then pulled right out. What a dump. Can't believe this is a KOA. First the sign says it's .2 of mile off the highway. It's actually more then 2 miles off the highway. It's sand , mud, overgrown grass, run down campers. Wife did not feel safe staying so we left. Lots of junky campground on the Route 10 corridor. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This park is in need of some tender loving care. The grass/weeds were in excess of a foot tall. Looked like the only thing getting maintetance, was the office area.

This campground is a bunch of sites scattered in the woods on sand and mud. The sites are fairly level by luck not by design. The hookups are a long way from where they need to be if you don't want to unhook your tow car. It took me 35' of water hose to connect. The sewer was impossible. The bathrooms may be clean but are very old and used. The swimming pool was empty. This was also very very old. The dog walk was mud and puddles. This is another old, overpriced KOA. They should lower the prices and forget the afternoon tea. We camped here in a Motorhome.

A nice park right on the interstate. Not really in Tallahassee despite the name. Heavily wooded with mature trees and lots of shade. Mostly pull through sites on grass with gravel roads. Sites are more spacious and farther apart than at most KOAs. A good number of long-term residents. Wi-Fi service is slow and limited pretty much to the office-game room area. Office hours are somewhat limited and we found that an inconvenience as they were closed when we arrived in the early afternoon. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We are local and have visited the in-laws when they stayed here so I knew what to expect. I really don't have any complaints. The sites are a little tight and the roads a little narrow. Staff are friendly and keep the grounds clean. Wi-Fi was a little lacking. The first night I could not get on any of the three wireless access points (WAPs), but the other nights I was able to connect at 11 Mbps, which is better than most others I've tried. The cost per night is with the Good Sam/AAA discount. We had site #6. I will be visiting this park again mainly because, as I said, we are local. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Long pull-throughs can accommodate big rigs. Easy access off I-10. Tall pines. Very quiet. Grass/dirt sites. Mediocre picnic tables. Sites are extremely tight. If we had our awning out it would have touched our neighbors slide on their coach. This is not a comfortable park for outdoor activities at your site since the sites are so close together. We could easily hear our neighbors moving around in their coach and there‘s very little space for chairs outside. Free Wi-Fi, however, it’s slow. Costco, Wal-Mart, and Publix within minutes of the park. Probably will not stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Easy access pull-through sites, with a nice area for walking the dogs. The only drawback is that the sites are tight. Not much room between big rigs, especially when slides are out.

Close to I-10, nice person in office, tall Pine and other trees with a bit of shade, pea gravel sites. Good for one night, would not stay longer, and I thought the discount rate of $36 was a bit expensive given the fact that this is a very basic park. We were also very frustrated that the small pool closed at 7PM. When we arrived at 3PM our thermometer was reading 110 degrees, so we waited until the sun went down a bit and we had eaten dinner to go for a swim. There is never a lifeguard on duty, so I don't see the reason for closing the pool so early. The two shower rooms were clean, but not air conditioned so very hot. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The sites are very close together. We had a site down by the road and really had to level ourselves with the jacks and dumping the air bags. The narrow roads are only 1 rig wide. One has to take turns either going in or leaving. My biggest gripe is the electrical hookups are 12 inches off the ground in a box. I have bad knees and had to get down on the ground to hook up. I had to get the wife to help me up. I don't know why they are so low. When you pay, you sign a note stating "No Refunds". An ok site, but not great. Be careful with your rig if you are over 40 feet. We won't stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The park is well maintained and nicely landscaped. The man who checked us in was friendly and polite. The lots are extremely close together. Our picnic table was less than 3 ft. from the sewer hose of the adjacent lot. There was wireless internet but the connection was very slow and frequently went down. The somewhat larger lots are 1-9.

We stayed for 2 nights at this park and found the staff extremely friendly and helpful. We asked for an area without trees for our satellite which they gave us. There are many wooded lots, however, if you like that. We had to stay an extra night because of a repair need, and they were most accomodating and helpful in finding a repair person. I'd definitely stay at this park again. It's very convenient to the Interstate, and there is a shopping center with a lovely grocery within walking distance. Great location.

This is a decent place to stay especially if you are located in the back part of the cg. These are larger sites decent road access and more level. The site that we had was near the entrance and it was a pull thru, but it had a drop off in the front making it impossible to level rig as the truck tires kept spinning on wet grass and mud. We could not put out the slide either because we could not reposition the RV due to wet ground. We had to wait until another MH had to disconnect the towed before attempting to pull into their site. Very tight corner and narrow roadway. All in all the CG. is very nice for a stay but I would prefer to be in the back section especially if it had rained. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

I requested a pull thru site- where I could keep the toad connected. What a joke!! The site they assigned me is located right beyond a very sharp curve, and is extremely narrow. I had to disconnect toad, and even with that I could not get in this site w/out hitting either my neighbors slide or the wood support of the electrical pedestal. Being a good neighbor, I took out the wood, lost some paint on the bottom of one of my bays. The worker in the office must have NEVER driven a mh, to think a 40'er would fit. The site is narrow and not level, the cg roads are narrow. Convenient from I 10, but I will never stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

OK for big rigs, but the spaces are very narrow (as in, awnings and slides practically touching each other). The photos on the website are taken on the park behind the office. There are a handful of spaces between the office and the highway. We were assigned one of those spaces even though we had reserved over 2 weeks in advance. When we saw the contrast, the likely road noise, the inconvenience for the bath house or laundry facilities, and complete void of wooded ambience, we requested either a further reduced rate or to be relocated. We were relocated to another site that was much more tolerable. The sites were not paved and would have been a real mess with much more rain than we experienced. We were there in winter, so no there was opportunity to use the pool. The open grassy area was good for walking our dogs, but we had to pick our way past several areas left by other dogs without owners picking up. We'd love to encourage all park owners to strictly enforce leash and poop pickup by guests to assure that the park remains pleasant for everyone - even other dog owners! Restroom facilities were moderately clean and the laundry room was good. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

There's a fence on the left and a tree on the turn you'll need to miss! Quiet park located off I-10. Friendly staff. Nice place to spend the night or a weekend.

We stayed here two nights but we would have left had we not paid for two nights on arrival. This is not a pet friendly park. They have 8 General Policy Rules and Twelve Pet Policies. They only accept "inside" pets. The animal must be kept indoors at all times except when being walked. The other policy that would prevent us from coming back is washers and dryers are not permitted. If you have pets who don't mind being cooped up inside and you don't need to use your washer/dryer, this is a nice park. The roads are narrow but navigable. Our site wasn't terribly level but we could work with it. The park is very convenient to I-10 and grocery store. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed for 2 days & even had a local tire company (Neece Tires) come out and change a tire on the trailer for a fee, of course. The roads are a little narrow, but they caution you to "turn wide" at the curves. The restrooms & laundry are clean; the sites are gravel with some grass between sites. Free wi-fi (excllent), free cable; pool and lots of shade. I can't think of anything else we would need. They do allow pets, but we couldn't put the dog cage up outside the trailer.

If the attitude of management was my only guide for a rating, this place would be a '10'. With other considerations...entry was slow,the road is fine for your motorhome while towing. The problem is that it is narrow and if anyone is blocking...it will back up as it did with us. So, check-in was a 3. Once you get to your site...they are very narrow. There is very little space between sites. Site is a 5. Shade is everywhere. Do not expect to be able to use your satellite. Cable is very good. Lots of channels. Utilities is a 9. They ask you to not use a washer/dryer on your coach while there? I'll give that a 2. That's how I got to a 7. This place was okay for an overnight stop. I question why anyone would describe this as a destination. We camped here in a Motorhome.

If you are staying in the Tallahassee area, this is the campground to stay at. It is very well managed with lots of flowers and nice grass at each site. There is a large area dedicated for pets with plastic bags on several posts in the area. The sites are long and level, saw several 45 footer easily fit in the sites. The manager is very friendly and cares about the campground. The pool is a little small, type you would find in your back yard, but it was 9 feet deep at the deep end. The campground is very quite without numerous long term campers living in older units. WiFI worked great inside the motorhome and cable TV is also at each site. Both are free. I would call this campground a hidden jewel in the Tallahassee area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Park is conveniently located off the freeway and on a main road that leads to the downtown area. Manager was very friendly. Site was level side to side but crowned in the middle that caused a little problem while unhooking. Sites were very wide, gravel pad with grassy areas in between.

Land scaping was very nice. Sites were level, but small gravel. Fairly quiet. Overnight stay, it is OK. Tall pines over some sites. Go to Maclay State Garden (5 miles) and the Tallahassee Auto Museum which is awesome (ask for the unadvertised senior special rate and save $3.50) Would stay again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Very convenient to the interstate, the campground was attractive and the landscaping very nice near the office. The staff was pleasant and helpful. The biggest negative was the narrow sites.

Cornering was very tight indeed for me w/ 35' camper and truck. Saw incoming neighbor struggle w/ 40'+ motor home. Sites were narrow, so my slides overhung the next site. Hookups (esp sewer) were w/i a few feet of neighbor's picnic table. The long term sites might have been better, but can't see staying long at site I used (# 9).

This is our second time at arriving at this park without notice and getting a good site, the park is really beautiful and well maintained, flowers grow in abundance and the place has an old English garden feel to it, The management are extremely friendly and helpful, the whole site is in a wooded area and peaceful setting with very good high speed wi-fi, if you need groceries there is a very good store within walking distance, overall this park is one I would recommend to anyone who needed a few days rest in peace and quiet. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Don't bother with this campground. Half the sites are permanent but when you call especially on a "game" weekend they are always full. It doesn't matter if you call 9 months in advance they are full! Half the time they never answer the phone. We camped here in a Motorhome.

The previous posts are pretty much on the mark. The camp sites are very close. We were not able to fully extend our awning. The power was very poor, 110 down to 108 at times. Our system shut off three times for weak power. Gravel pad but level. The grounds were very nicely kept and the staff was friendly. This is a ok overnighter, but not a destination... We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed from a Friday to Sunday. This campground was very clean, neat, pretty and QUIET. Children are allowed, but it didn't seem like the kind of place where I'd feel comfortable letting my kids be kids. Maybe football weekends are a bit looser and noisier. The staff was very nice and helpful. The pull through sites are very adequate in length; room enough for vehicles in front and back of the space. The pool was small, had a lot of rules, but was very deep. The shower/bathrooms were clean, but small--about the size of your home bathroom. Campground is in a very good location 1/2 mile south of I-10 and near Publix and a small strip mall. I would definitely stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This campground is immaculate, beautifully manicured grounds, all pull-through sites, towering shade trees throughout, friendly and extremely helpful campground management, conveniently located off I-10 and our favorite RV park thus far. Diesel fuel near entrance with public shopping and hospital/medical care nearby. We will definitely return to this location. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is a very convenient park. The management is very friendly and helpful. They are most helpful to assist you in registration, suggestions, etc. The park is very attractive. The sites and not large, but very adequate and meet the needs for a few days. The flowering bushes were at their peak and made for a beautiful facility. Reservations are highly recommended for the busy times of the year. The park is fully booked most weekends. We will return if we are ever in the area again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We really liked this park. The staff were extremely friendly and the facilities are very nice. The laundry is cheap ($1 a load) and their wifi coverage is excellent. We couldn't get satellite reception where we were, but they did have cable, though a small channel selection. The pool was closed while we were here. Location is excellent, with quiet sites off the road and easy access to the highway and downtown. While we were here, we met a few people serving on the Florida State Legislature, staying here while it is in session. They were very welcoming and thanked us for spending our money in their state. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Excellent CG with excellent management team - apparently husband and wife team. We've stayed at other CG's in Tallahassee but much prefer this CG verses the others. Shaded sites - sites are gravel but level. Convenient to I-10. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed here for 3 days and this campground filled up every night. We were not asked to read or sign any rules but we do not travel with pets. This campground is close to I10 as well as a very nice Publix Market & golf driving range/par 3 course. It is also convenient to the attractions in Tallahassee ( capitol, Mission San Luis, Antique car museum, etc ) The sites are close together & it looked like some people were having difficulty in getting level. Most people who stayed overnight didn't even unhook as the sites are big enough to accommodate even the largest rig & towed/tow vehicle. The campground is well maintained, WIFI worked well in the rig and it was surprisingly quiet given that it was only 1/2 mile off the freeway. We will stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is a very clean, very convenient campground that is easily accessible off I-10. The interior roads are good but quite narrow and curvy. Nevertheless, we were able to easily park our 40-foot motor home. We arrived in a hard rain and found that the campground drained well, which can make or break an experience. We would definitely camp there again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nothing says "welcome" like being asked to read and sign a lengthy list of rules as you are registering. There are an even dozen rules pertaining to pets alone. As retired adults, we think we know how to behave with common sense and courtesy, and it's more than a little condescending to be reminded of so many details. You pay your money, yet you feel like you're on probation. The place is clean enough, and certainly a better overnight stop than some of the genuinely iffy places nearby in Perry, FL where we've stayed. We are not overly impressed with Florida anyway; we consider it a way station between Georgia and Alabama. We chose the place because it offered free wi-fi service. As it happens, the wi-fi is a bit iffy. I am able to access the net and receive email, but cannot send email, except by web mail. Next trip through these parts, we'll choose another spot. You may like it, if you are obssessed with rules. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Sites are very close together as is typical for a private park. That's one reason we prefer state parks or COE parks. Very friendly park management. Upkeep on park is very good except for fire ant mounds. Pet policy is a bit anal. For instance, you can't have pet on a chain next to you when sitting out. Must be on a hand held leash. That said, probably one of the better parks in Tallahassee. Rates go up on FSU football weekends. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

The park was wonderful and owners were even better. We were extremely late getting there, after 10 p.m. and they could not have been nicer about it. The site was pretty narrow, but we were only there overnight so it didn't matter as much. The restrooms were very clean, although there wasn't any heat and in March it was very chilly in there. We would definitely stay there again, they were most accommodating. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Clean park, staff very friendly. Sites very close, almost impossible to open awning without hitting neighbors slides or trees. Our dog was covered in ticks after walking in pet area. Talked to other pet owners that had the same problem. Park is over priced for what you get. We have family within a mile of the park so it is good for us, but we will not be back because of the high price and ticks. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Friendly staff. Easy access from I-10. First impression is good due to cleanliness of park and landscaping. Rec room is very nice with large kitchen and family/TV room combined. Two small bath houses with one toilet and shower stall in each. Sites are extreamly small and unlevel. Barely had room to open slides and awning. Would not stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

One of only two decent RV parks near Tallahassee. Not a destination park, but good for seeing the city. Crowded during FSU football games. Florida state legislators stay here in their motorhomes when legislature is in session. Many trees. Most sites are pull-thru. Some are narrow. There is a laundry, contrary to an earlier review. Rec hall is minimal. Best for self-contained units. Only two bathrooms (combination bathroom & shower). Closest RV park to I-10. Supermarket very near. Management is very friendly. They made room for as many RVs as possible during 2004 hurricane evacuations. We've stayed there twice, in 2004 and 2005. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Overall, a pleasant stay...but this is NOT a place for you if you are not self-contained. There is only one men's room and one women's room, each about 10x6 with one toilet, sink, and shower in that space and that's all there is! Although not in the park, the neighbors dog to the west bark incessantly throughout our visit. Owners were nice! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Friendly and helpful staff. Sites seemed very narrow, one or two sites in the very back looked like they could be a challenge to level. There are a group of sites up front, we stayed in one of these, I imagine that it would be quieter in the back, as US90 generates a bit of noise. Bath house is small, one toilet and shower for each gender. Rec room is size of standard family room/kitchen combination, and pool looks to be about the size of a standard back yard pool. Laundry facilities are on site (and must be used, no washer dryer use in rigs allowed), and cable TV was included, they have a modem line in the rec room. No playground, no fires, no grills. Good place to go if you have other things to do in TLH, but not a destination in itself. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Owners are upgrading the park slowly with plans for expansion. Supermarket, golf and I-10
close by. Pancake breakfasts on weekends and we noticed that they have a good relationship with the area Deputy. He came through every day we were there and
he's also an RV'er. Great place to stay. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Nice park, well maintained. Lots of grass and trees (trimmed back from the sites and roads) Lots of large pull thrus that handle 40' 5th and toter. No laundry facilities. Most of the sites are tucked way back off the road and are very quiet. Driving by it doesn't look like a campground so pay attention to small signage on the right side as you drive south from I-10 We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

This is the place if you want quiet. As previous posting stated, the drive in looks like the owner's front yard. Pull thru sites were plenty long. My rig is 31' had Saturn L300 toad. Room enough for another vehicle to park in the space. If you want activities, you have to go into Tallahassee. Owners were very nice. She was out checking things in pouring down rain. Then he was out picking up downed tree limbs while it was still raining. Really take good care of place. Easy access to I-10. We camped here in a camper.

Very friendly staff. Park is very clean and free of road noise for the most part. First impression is not good because as you enter park you are actually driving into the front yard of manager's house and some spaces are in front yard. Most of sites are in the rear. Sites are very close together, approximately 20-25 feet apart. We camped here in a camper.
