Super cozy spot. Quiet. Away from others. Lots of nice flat spots to set up tents as needed in shady spots. Hosts friendly and responsive. Lovely evening view across Lake Eufaula. Near some easy nature walks.

1 night at Patriot Point Eufaula

Host was quick and responsive. Site location was level, easy to get to and a quick walk down to the lake, we were sad to only be there one day because it would have been nice to spend more time at the water. On a related note as a one night stay this totally worked for our rv, but the hook ups a very spread out, so a longer term stay will need to have extra hose or do some jockeying around.
