It has a bit of a modern clean feel. The bathroom is large with a glass step in shower. They have a coffee maker as well as a step up from a mini fridge/ freezer. They have a large TV. The beds are very comfortable. Only draw backs ...The door sticks when you try to open it. You have to hit it with your hip hard to make it open after you unlock it with your card. Also the phone in the room didn't work at all... I couldn't even call the desk. I was trying to call to get the wifi access code... but couldn't call. The beads amazing and rooms are greP! So all in all a very good trip!

Great News: Fantastic lodge prices: a one night stay cost me…read moreonly $58!! (for 1 adult and 2 seniors!!) Scenic state park featuring an 18 hole golf course (I refrain from golf for embarrassment reasons) Friendly small-town staff. Small airport directly across the highway. VERY effective room air-conditioning. Single story buildings. Small "Restaurant" inside the lodge (did not dine there). Color Television with Cable. Iron & Ironing Board. Coffeemaker. Hair dryer. Space-age built-in soap/shampoo/conditioner dispensers. Glamorous News: This same lodge was recently used by the crew of one of those family-fixing "Nanny" reality shows while they were filming an episode in the McRae area. The lingering cloud of "Hollywood Glamour" at the lodge is palpable, though you should be careful not to confuse it with the teeming hordes of angry gnats (see below). Non-Glamorous News: Location may be perceived as "isolated" by resort-conscious (there is no "ocean view"). Woods be full of Captain Drew's lubber kinfolk and ticks (in equal measure). Teeming hordes of angry gnats. Angry, angry gnats that should not be confused with Hollywood Glamour (see above). Bad News: Firm mattresses. Relentlessly firm mattresses. Unforgivingly firm mattresses. The Deal: If you've a bad back, drive south Jim m'lad and don't stop 'till you've arrived at the wooden sign for the Little Ocmulgee State Park (and Lodge). Located about 35 minutes south of Dublin in the heart of Gnats-Up-Your-Nose County, this state park be the same locale where Captain Drew goes for his annual family reunion of inlaws and outlaws.... partly because we be such a wild bunch that we can't be contained by anything smaller, but mostly because it only costs us a couple hundred groats to rent an air-conditioned pavilion with its own surface parking lot. Perhaps one day I'll take one of you sweet-bottomed lasses down there on me arm to show off to me cousin/wives.... In all these years of herding my parents down to the reunion we've never stayed overnight in this state park's lodge UNTIL last week, when we found ourselves compelled southward by familial love and memorial duty. En route we agreed to give this state-run lodge a tryout since our former favorite, the Magnolia Inn, is now operated by a friendly family with a penchant for curries so indescribably pungent that the scent has permanently permeated the molecular essence of every structural component of their flophouse. While I enjoy a good curry as well as the next fellow, I also enjoy the delicious aroma of 78% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.038% carbon dioxide, trace amounts of other gases, and a variable amount (average around 1%) of water vapor. We were certain to find fresh air at the Little Ocmulgee State Park Lodge, and we did!! Signing In A breeze.... super fast. Our Stay Our lodgings were VERYsatisfactory. With the exception of a missing ice bucket (we had the lid), the room was as fully stocked as any other contemporary hotel room you'd find anywhere else in the nation. Why spend more somewhere else? Checking Out My only recommendation is to make every effort to prevent men in golfing togs and pronounced drawls getting in line ahead of you (especially if they're in the sawmill business) because they will delay your departure by 20 minutes as they kibitz with the friendly staff, loudly declaring how much money they make, detailing how much their monthly income surpasses the annual income of their fellow townfolk and generally strutting about acting "all rich and stuff". One solution to this dilemma is of course to nip out onto the nearby "wetlands" boardwalk (ie, swampy-path-to-nowhere), secure some sort of non-venomous-but-nontheless-agitated indigenous wildlife and insert it into the open golfbags in the back of the rich guys' pick-up trucks. Alternately, you can simply stand in line behind them with a fake smile plastered across your face, pondering at how marvelously ridiculous your little planet can be~

We recently attended a family wedding at this venue. Very spacious piece of land, with plenty of…read moreparking space. The building looked a bit rugged and rustic from the outside, very country life-like and the perfect look and theme for this beautiful wedding. The original plan was to have an outside wedding ceremony, then bring it inside for the reception but weather did not cooperate and all was done inside. It was all truly beautifully decorated and it all worked out great. The kitchen area was perfect to display and serve food. A mini liquor bar and sitting area was directly to the right and connected with the building, making it easier for guests to step out and beverages. Its the perfect venue for any type of event, really.

My wife and I recently moved to GA to finish a 6-8 month work contract. I found this place and…read morethought we could do a dry run to see if it would work for us long term. From the moment we met Denise and Jack, we knew this place was going to be our home while in Georgia. The property is amazing-from the large and clean sites to the pond filled with fish they have it all. It is on a forested property removed from the city so there is no loud noise or parties. I have seen lots of wildlife and the sunsets from our site are incredible. They offer daily and monthly rates and storage as well, all at incredibly cheap prices. There is a laundry room and two wonderful bathrooms with a full shower for guests. They spared no expense-every part of the park is hand crafted with unique art and personal touches so you feel at home.

This review relates to campground : Little Ocmulgee State Park is as most of Georgia Parks is…read morebetter than surrounding states. However recent changes and events have made them way too expensive. The State has contracted the management of these parks to corporate entities. The fee's for sites is rapidly approaching forty dollars per night and in many cases such as Veterans S P do not even offer full service sites. While Ocmulgee does have a few full service sites, all sites are the same price. Why should a tent site pay the same as full service 50 amp site. Most of the land that these parks occupy was either given to the state or purchased by the state with taxpayer funds for the enjoyment and recreation of all the people. Corporate managers have a different mentality, they are about profit and not service to the public. Our state politicians have sold us out! What possible justification could there be for a family to have to pay in excess of $100 to camp for the weekend. Federal camping activities offer better facilities with full service hookups for less than $60 per weekend and less for tent site, why can't the state do that? They Could, but again they have sold us out! The state will offer that they can get the private sector to run the parks cheaper than they can, that's Bs, at who's expense, the people of course. I have been a volunteer at Georgia Parks for many years, and I know that the parks could be run by a minimal staff of three or four and volunteers, however there would be no kickback for politicians. Ask politicians like Pruitt State Representative, (R-GA) why they are using the host sites at the taxpayers expense. Now, to the park, most sites are great, they have cable tv, tables, fire pit , water and 30-50amp . Some pull thru sites. Wake up real Friends of Georgia Parks, take back your parks.
