    Places to stay at Pickwick

    I am looking for information on places to stay on Pickwick Lake. I have herd that JP Coleman State Park and/or Pickwick Landing State Park are both good places to stay, but I cannot seem to find many details on JP Coleman. Pickwick Landing State Park has a little better information and photos available. I am looking at coming towards the end of May, after Memorial day and staying through the first week of June. Can any of you provide better details about either of these two locations? Will have at least one truck/boat trailer. Pros/Cons with either is greatly appreciated.

    Jp Coleman has my vote I stay there 2-5 times a year. Pros is you never have to strap your boat down, it’s really quiet, and park manager is great.
    Cons are it’s 20 mins to the store if you needed anything and cabins are outdated but work just fine.
    That’s a great time to be up there for sure.

    If staying at JP Coleman get your reservations early. They will book up pretty quick. Love staying up there myself. Cabins and Motel are not bad at all.

    Another vote for J.P. Coleman.

    Have been in cabins and main building... Both fine.
