Claystone Park Campground

We were initially booked at the Arrowhead CG but all the available large sites were severely sloped so they let us move to a Claystone CG site about 15min on the north side of Lake Tobesofkee. They put us in site 20 which I think is a buddy site with 21. However, there is only 1 water spigot between the two sites. We would’ve not been able to hookup to any water if the occupant in 21 hadn’t left the next morning. Other than that, nice park, great wooded and lake views. Park is a bit hilly but I didnt see many badly sloped campsites. Sites are close together with no natural barriers but I didnt feel cramped. Only sites 40-45 have sewer hookup and are closest to lake. Lots of kids. Lots of dogs and everybody kept them on a leash. Saw ranger security during frequent rounds in his truck. Love the butterfly habitat/garden!

We've stayed here several times. Park is well kept, campsites overlook Lake Tobesofkee, most sites are water and electric only (these are on the side of the hill so somewhat unlevel) about 6 sites have sewer (poured pad and level). Our last stay was at site #22 (which is tucked behind some trees and has no view of the lake). Cell coverage is good, stores and restaurants are nearby.

I called the morning prior to my stay and reserved a site. When i arrived they gave that spot away. Luckily i was able to find another spot that was fine for the night. Kind of frustrating when you have been driving all day and just want to get set up and relax. Otherwise a bit of trash left behind but I’ve seen worse. Bathroom were fine. Laundry ....,no ...,,,,just no. Disgusting. A little care and management would go a long way to make this campground great.

What a shame there’s no pride or care given to the cleanliness & upkeep. This could be an absolute gem if given the time of day. We arrived at 3pm (2pm check in) to find our site had not been cleaned, fire pit was full of trash. At first just assumed it had been a late check out and called the office to send someone over. They did clean up after I insisted but continued to tell me they just drive by sites and didn’t notice anything. As the day went on and I continued to look around woods next to site I found lots of trash including a package of raw meat. I informed the office the next day but no one ever came back around. I noticed at least half a dozen other sites same thing with trash piled in fire pits. We checked in on a Monday and noticed they never came to clean up anything till Friday right before the weekend reservations. About half dozen fhu pull thrus were the only sites decent since they mostly seemed to have transient one or two nighters coming and going. The bathroom & laundry room same thing barely acceptable. What a great location near the interstate & lake tobesofkee. It goes to show not having a camp host and just municipal employees that there is no love given to this campground. What a shame it has so much potential. Just clean it up and do some maintenance.

Do not stay here! of course, if you’re good with dumping water to access your campsites water spigot, rude gate personnel, and tearing apart your waste hose to use the dump station, then this is a place for you! Tons of trash everywhere! We went to pay for a week, apparently they only charged us for one night, 4 days later the Sherriff shows up like we did something wrong! When they close at night, they only gate the entrance so anyone can come in or out the exit (which is parallel to the entrance) of the park. Most nights, random cars and tractor trailers come in after the gate personnel closes up, park and stay the night in campsite spots, then they’re gone first thing in the morning. If I have to come back to the area with my work again, I’ll make sure this is not where we stay! Also, who doesn’t take reservations on the weekend?!? This place!!! What a horrible experience!!!
