We spent three days here in Cabin #7 and had a great time.Good things:- The park staff was great.- The cabins are clean, comfortable and the A/C works great.- Lots of trails to explore.- Direct TV in the cabins for when it’s too hot to be outside.Not so good things:- Cell phone service for AT&T and Verizon is not very good in most of the park.- The can opener was missing from the cabin; I'm going to make sure I have one of those in the truck from now on!

The purpose of our visit was just for fun..to feed the turtles who were especially hungry this spring morning..we had to stop when the baby alligator decided to join the turtles..we were on the tall bridge...the spring bridge is another nice feeding sight too....the water was real low this particular day..we noticed that they were renovating the cabins up by the lake..that will really be nice for campers this year...we went to play on the very nice playground where sometimes you can see the alligator sunning across the water on the bank across from the playground..there are plenty of picnic and grilling spots for those of you who have never been..there is a swimming pool also...there are covered picnic tables and shelters to rent...the park entry fee is $5.00 The setting under the pines is very relaxing.

We really like this park. I love nature and the fact that you can rent cabins and stay over. Nice! This is a great park for the whole family.

My husband & I took a day trip to visit Magnolia Springs to check out the camp sites for future camping. We loved this well kept, scenic, and peaceful park and plan to go back camping in the near future. The Spring is lovely and the turtles are plentiful. We saw an alligator too swiming in the spring. The area where the Fort and prison camp was located during the civil war was a poignant reminder of our country's history. The camp sites for both RV's and tents (walk ins) are well spaced, clean, and picturesque. The museum was not open today since it is still considered off season. There is also a building that appeared to have an aquarium in it that also should be open when the weather warms up more. We explored most areas of this park (group shelters, cottages, group lodges, and picnic areas) and found everything top notch. We did not go down any of the several trails available because we wanted to save something for when we go back camping. We recommend this secluded state park in Georgia for all nature and history loving travelers.

We were rambling and exploring our new surroundings one weekend and decided to stop in and take a look around. Very glad that we did! Love the history aspect, during the civil war this was the site of Camp Lawton, which at the time, was the world's largest prison. the earthen breastworks which guarded it are still intact but very little is left of it. There is a boardwalk that surrounds the huge spring that feeds the creek and turtles and alligators abound! they have cottages for rent and a campground which looks to be very well maintained and several park rangers were there the day we went.There is a 5.00 per vehicle admission fee

Driving up you would never know ... The landscape around the spring looks more like Florida than local. The spring is clear, blue and full of wildlife. Don't miss the freshwater aquarium....it's especially fun for kids. If you like history there are also some historic civil war camp areas complete with info boards. The picnic areas are nice. PS...watch out for the gators.

2nd time! Lots are large! Playground in the middle! Bath house newly redone! Park is being renovated all over! The cabins appear to be all refreshed! Pool was closed! The trails and geocaching are awesome! Main reason I came! Very quite minus the occasional train! The turtles and alligators are awesome! McDonald's and fast food only 5 miles away. Staff was great! Host and rangers left you alone! Lot of big rigs due to the size of lots. The lake and surrounding trails are amazing for wildlife. Will be back to use day services like a bunch of pavilions and picnic tables near the lake!

Magnolia springs is a great place to stop and have lunch of course you have to bring your own lunch but they are interesting things to see. Children love seeing all the alligators and it breaks up the boring drive between Statesboro and Augusta.

Magnolia Springs State Park has recently gained new fame with the discovery of artifacts from a Civil War POW camp, Camp Lawton. While the artifacts are currently housed at GA Southern University, a museum is under construction at the park where they will find a permanent home. Our cabin #7 was one of the newer ones. It is very comfortable with a well equipped kitchen and two comfortable beds in each bedroom and separate bathrooms. The weather prevented us from exploring the grounds very much. When we had a couple of minor issues with our cabin, the park ranger came quickly and resolved them. Kudos to her. We will definitely come back. GA State Parks are real treasures.
