David’s property was, as always, exceptionally well maintained. We had a great time riding the trails and fishing in the pond. This visit, we also spent some time on the gun range, which was a fun addition to our trip. Looking forward to coming back again soon!

We enjoyed Travelhick. The two travel trailer sites were spaced by several hundred feet apart making them very private. The fencing that surrounds the campsites allowed kids and pets to roam freely. The property has, it seems miles of manicured trails suitable for ATV or walking activities. Also available is a shooting range and a pond creating an outdoor paradise. We plan to visit again!

We loved the large, fully fenced area. It makes for a wonderful space to let kids and pets play safely. The trail network throughout the property is extensive. The pond is quite large and has a nice covered dock area to fish from or just hang out. My son and I enjoyed taking the boat out on the water and did some fishing.

Lake City Campground is somewhat remote & quiet - just what my husband & I were looking for. The common area bathrooms & kitchen were clean & convenient. The proximity to Lake Jackson & a few other nearby areas of interest such as Finks Mill and Andalusia were an added bonus for this location. If you’re looking for no crowds but nearby activities, then this is an ideal campground.

We love CampTravelhick! It’s just the right amount of space for us to enjoy a lazy weekend of camping. The fire pits perfect to drive off the bugs or the chill and the kids enjoy roaming the trails and fishing the pond behind the camping area. The dog even enjoys the large fences are to run and stretch his legs. And the full hook ups don’t hurt either!

Nice open space with a country vibe. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others, especially with kids and pets, as the trails, pond and fenced area are a great bonus! There is a Highway close but you get the peace and privacy that you don’t get in comparing it to RV parks on a highway.
