This was a way stop for us though we spent a few days here. 

Two Rivers is located near Dollywood, Sevierville, Gatlinburg and Great Smokey Mountains National Park.

Situated along the French Broad River, the park is nicely manicured with clean facilities (some of the nicest showers we've come across lately). The pads are cement and each campsite is delineated by a nice hedgerow.

During the winter the nightly rate is $50.00. And there were very few campers around while we were there on a Thursday/Friday.

Our first time camping here and our reaction is mixed. 

The campground is outstanding, well kept, clean facilities and lots of multi-use trails and a terrific beach just across the highway.

The park is, generally speaking booked solid during the winter season. It appeared we got one of the few spots available.

We are both underwhelmed by Gulf Shores and Orange Beach, Alabama.  They don't call it the Redneck Riviera for nothing.  You, of course, may find all the high rises and kitschy shit to your liking.

​Regardless, Gulf State Park comes recommended.

Chattahoochee Bend was an overnight stay for us on our way to Columbus, Georgia to attend the memorial service of a high school classmate of mine, Mike Venable.

The campground is meticulously kept, showers clean. The campground was sparsely populated when we were there. 

I'm guessing reservations are scarce in the summer season with all the hiking and water activities available.

Chattahoochee Bend State Park showcases a spectacular tract of wilderness in northwest Coweta County. Located in a graceful bend of the Chattahoochee River, the park is a haven for paddlers, campers and anglers. At 2,910 acres, Chattahoochee Bend is one of Georgia’s largest state parks, protecting five miles of river frontage. A boat ramp provides easy access to the water, while more than six miles of wooded trails are open for hiking and nature photography. An observation platform provides nice views of the river and forest.
Although most of the park has been left in its natural state, campers have many options for staying overnight within park boundaries. RV owners will enjoy the camping section with sunny pull-through and back-in sites. Tent campers can choose from riverfront platform sites, walk-in sites and traditional developed campsites. The park even offers screened Adirondack-style shelters for families and groups who want a unique camping experience. Bathhouses with hot showers are a short walk from most campsites. Covered picnic shelters may be rented for birthday parties, reunions and other gatherings.- From the website
