Cordele KOA

Stayed here 3 days and 2 nights on my wat down to Florida. Staff was very nice and guided me to my spot. I advised the ranger My site had good satellite coverage, they have cable that I didn't use. Cell coverage was excellent Sprint FMCA MiFi 75Mbps down / 32Mbps Up - Amazing; Verizon phone 67Mbps down also amazing. Water pressure was good 60 psi, Power - 50 amp 122 volts and 119 volts - very good. Site was very level only 1-1/2 inches off in my 40 foot motorhome - very easy to level. Very easy off the highway!

I stayed here with my parents on an overnight stay. Sites were mostly level, although mine sloped a bit toward the back and I couldn't get the back end of my trailer totally level. I had an electrical issue at the box, and maintenance came immediately and fixed it for me. Very convenient to the interstate, but I did not hear a lot of road noise. Amenities were older. Good water pressure. Did not use the restroom facilities, but seemed large and centrally located. All all in, would stay here again for an overnight stay, but does not seem to have a lot of frills to warrant a longer stay.

This campground is conveniently located close to the interstate. The overall campground is very clean. The sites are all dirt and grass. Unfortunately, our site was full of ant mounds that we didn’t notice until ants were all over our Motorhome. It was obvious that it was an older campground because all the connections were farther to the back of the sites which makes it difficult to connect for those that are towing and need to pull to the very front of the site. We had to unhook our trailer and backup to dump at the end of our stay. I doubt I would stay here again long term, but a 1 night stay would be fine. For a KOA Journey campground, I did expect better.

The campsite itself is fine. Level with gravel and some shade from pecan trees. We were able to self check in.

We saw zero support or maintenance crew. I’m sure they are there because the bathroom was clean when we arrived (at 8pm) but by the morning the bathrooms were trashed and smelled like cigarettes. There was also a pile of cigarette butts on the ground at our campsite.

There were a few amenities: a playground that had seen better days, a pool closed due to coronavirus (understandable), and some poorly maintained shuffle boards. It looked like some of the campsites had full hook up, ours did not. There was WiFi and it seemed pretty fast.

Overall, not worth the price for an overnight stay. But it is close to I-75 and if you are self contained, may not be too bad. This was our first experience at a KOA and we weren’t impressed.

The big pluses to this KOA are the roomy sites and friendly staff. Gravel and dirt roads and pads with grass in between sites; mostly level, with some shade. Good power per my PI EMS. We stayed because this is our last night on the road from home in Florida to Alaska and back this summer and I wanted full hookups to drain and flush our black tank. Plenty of room for big rigs. Pull through and back in sites. We had a pull through. Some road noise from I-75, but not too bad. We did not use any facilities, so cannot comment.
