Florence Marina State Park

Great place to take the family for a quiet, secluded weekend get away. Park staff and volunteers are super friendly and helpful. Picturesque views of the water and old oak trees with moss dangling down from them. Providence Canyon (Georgia's Little Grand Canyon) and Alabama are mere minutes away. We visited Eufaula, Alabama to see the city where Sweet Home Alabama was filmed and grab a few groceries (about 30 minutes away). One thing to note is that there is not a gas station or grocery store within 30 minutes of the park, so be sure to bring what you need and plan accordingly. Also, the trip in to the park is mainly back roads, so again be sure top off with gas completely before heading out to the park. Plenty of fishing areas to fish from, putt-putt for evening fun, parks for the kids, and an interpretive center is onsite. Park has a couple of handicap accessible pull through sites available. Handicap placard is required to reserve and occupy.
