Another great experience at one of our State Parks. We did the cabin trail, picnicked under the shade trees, and explored the visitors center. Sadly the swim area was closed for maintenance, but the rest of the park remains a favorite spot. Check for ticks once you’ve finished hiking in summer! We love Woolly Hollow.

This small park has full hookups at all sites and sites are paved. It also has a beach area with pavilion, newer Visitor Center, trails with some new bridges and a lot of trees. A few sites even overlook Lake Bennett. But, many sites are very unlevel including ours, #8. It was about 4 1/2" off and it took a lot of maneuvering to correct this. Our site had more than the usual amount of debris that we picked up. Campers, please don't litter! I'm glad we were able to visit this lovely park!

Great lil spot! Clean and friendly, nice camp areas with running water on the lots, each with fire pits, tent pads and a picnic table. Lots of wood available to cut for a fire and beautiful views of the lake. I would recommend packing bug spray though! Also, there's volleyball and basketball areas so bring a ball!! :)
