Watkin's Place at McCully
Secluded getaway
The Watkins cabin was a perfect refuge on the way down to see the Solar eclipse. It was Super secluded and the giant tree in the yard just a foot or 2 from the back porch was breathtaking. We saw and heard so many birds. We definitely plan on going back to do some of the trails! <3

Site 3 - McCully Heritage Project
The campsite was very sweet and the restrooms were huge and clean with piping hot water. The cypress trees exhibited the famous knobby formations alongside the creek and ponds.

Watkin's Place at McCully
Absolutely Perfect Private Getaway
McCully's cabin was the perfect spot for our two young children, our dog, and my husband and I. Camp staff were extremely friendly. The cabin was clean and perfectly secluded; it truly was the perfect, private little getaway. There was plenty of firewood available and the kitchen had everything you'd need if you choose to cook indoors.
We fished at both of the campsite ponds over 2 days and on the second day we had the pond entirely to ourselves. The entire site was cabin beautiful, quiet, and well maintained. Highly recommend! We'll be back!

Watkin's Place at McCully
Fantastic Remote Place To Stay
I spent an evening, night, and morning here to break up a long drive. Other than having everything I needed to rest and relax, I found that this place is magical in itself. The peace and quiet, all the amazing nature and wildlife around. It was awesome. Highly recommend!

Site 4 - McCully Heritage Project
Site 4
Camped here with a friend over the weekend and it was a perfect start to our camping season. Neat trails to explore, quiet and clean campsite. Stayed at site 4 and could not complain about the lot. We had two six person tents placed and there was still space for a third tent if needed. Plenty of trees if you care to bring a hammock. Would recommend and will definitely visit again.
