Overview

About

More like an elaborate botanical garden than a campground, Hodges Gardens State Park covers 700 acres of cultivated and wild beauty. You’ll find a 225-acre lake, man-made waterfalls, meandering footpaths, and beautifully constructed bridges, all surrounded by an incredible array of plants and flowers. The wilds of the park contain equestrian trails, a campground for you and your horse, and rustic cabins for overnight adventures. If you’re looking for a unique way to holiday, a visit to Hodges Gardens oughta do the trick.

The best time to visit Hodges Gardens State Park is during the spring and fall when the weather is mild and the gardens are in full bloom. Summer months can be quite warm, so early morning or late afternoon visits are recommended. Winter offers a stark beauty, though some amenities may be limited.
