No one contacted me to confirm my reservation. Admittedly it was same day, but before noon.
Showed they had showers, but they were all padlocked!
I planned on doing laundry but did not trust the look of the washer/dryer. ($1.50 each)
Toilet (single room was very spacious, but so-so on cleanliness.
Other campers were not very friendly either.
I got in around 7 pm and although there were people sitting out around campfires, no one said hello or anything.
However, if you are into boating and/or fishing, it might be a different story as the store and the bait/tackle shop looked practically brand new.
I do NOT recommend using this campground.

A monthly special brought us to this area. Wewahitchka (Wewa for short) is a very quiet area and the beach towns are 20-30 miles away. This campground is still in its infancy stage after being rebuilt after Hurricane Michael went through. They are continuing to bring things online. We landed a cement pad site (there are only 5 of them). OTA channels - lots (all the majors), AT&T 5G 3 bars with fast speeds for streaming. Phase 1 FHU sites are better than Phase 2 sites in regards to being level and spacious. Most services were still offline - no good bathrooms, no showers, and limited laundry. They have a camp store and a new bait shop just opened onsite.

What a bargain. Plenty of space for our 40’ coach with 4 slide outs. Friendly staff and campers. Nice, quiet area! Clean, which is important to us.

Such a pretty little spot and tomorrow we're going out tour with a guide on his pontoon boat on the lake. I love the grassiness and the little ponds with the fountains in the bridges. It is the coziest little place with lots of space between rv's. The people in town are fantastically friendly.

This place is an unknown gem. The park is set in an area of native pine with a pond or lake next to it. It is well managed by on-site manager W.E. and the county. Great place to stage outings to the Dead Lakes. Water and electric. Two dump stations. Laundary. Clean rest rooms. Don't be surprised to see major enlargement of this facility in the future, but for now the only negative is relative to the entire area- poor att signal!
Very important: regardless of what you read anywhere else on the web, the address that you should put in your GPS is 510 Gary Rowell Road, Wewawitchka.
They don't take reservations, but you can call W. E. at 8502583466 to find out about their availability.

I really wanted to love this park - it's a bargain, it's clean, it's pretty, it has a couple of laundry machines, but in the end we were so annoyed by our neighbors' fire pit that it over-shadowed all that. The campground loop was tight and I didn't look at every site, but our and the one next to us had fire pits that were way too close to the next site. Our neighbors had a fire both nights and their pit was only 7 feet away from our window. We had to close all the windows on that side of the rig and if they had been loud talkers we'd have heard every single word. Lots of the campers here came with boats on trailers and I suspect the campground pushed the rings out to the edge of the sites to make extra room to park, but it really isn't a good design.
In addition, there's no information posted on how or where to check in when you arrive. We pulled in after dark and had to wander around until we found the camp host.
Tent campers will appreciate that the tent sites are separated from the RV sites by the bathhouse and day-use area, which will reduce noise from air conditioners and such.

Small rv and tent campground with huge benefits. A tight loop but super quiet. Elec, water, dump station, bath houses, laundry, boat launch, walk paths, park setting..what more do you need. Friendly host is the best! Next trip south we'll be here for the paddling again for sure.

My husband and I wanted to go down to the coast from Tallahassee for a few days over President's Day weekend, but all the state parks were full. After reading the reviews here, we decided to give Dead Lakes a try. We camped in a large, pretty level site in the tent area a little away from the RV's. Although the main bathrooms are a little dated, overall, it was lovely. Wonderful, helpful people (thanks for the use of the grill, W.E.), beautiful view of the little lake, quiet at night and convenient for day trips to Port St. Joe or Appalachicola for seafood. It's first come, first served...but there were only a couple of other tents. We definitely will be back and will do some canoeing on Dead Lake.
