Reed Bingham State Park

Reservations (800) 864-7275
Park (229) 896-3551

Visitors to this pretty park usually see abundant wildlife, including species such as gopher tortoises, spotted turtles, limpkins, indigo snakes and nesting bald eagles. American alligators are often seen sunning along the lake’s edge. During winter, thousands of “buzzards,” actually black vultures and turkey vultures, roost in the trees and soar overhead. Nearly 80 percent of the Coastal Plain’s plant community can be found along the park’s Coastal Plain Nature Trail, making this park’s habitat some of the most diverse in the country.

A 375-acre lake is popular with boaters and skiers, and fishing for bass, crappie, catfish and bream is excellent. Paddlers can rent canoes and kayaks to explore this beautiful lake lined with fragrant water lilies and tupelo trees. Guided pontoon boat tours are sometimes offered during events. The beachside pavilion, picnic shelters and group shelters are scenic spots for parties, reunions and other celebrations. Reed Bingham is less than six miles from I-75, making it a relaxing stop for travelers. It was named for Amos Reed Bingham who was instrumental in having the park established.

We are gonna try and do three things well.
  1. Have a Regional Wildlife Control Conference and offer Basic NWCO Training and several related classes.
  2. Regional Urban Coyote , Beaver and Feral Hog Trapper’s  Conference.
  3. All while in the serenity and tranquility of a beautiful GA State Park with a chance to get away for the weekend and make new friends and learn new skills. Click here for resident and non resident 3 day fishing licenses from Georgia Wildlife  DNR.
We are gonna call it Kirk’s Camporee in memory of  Kirk LaPierre who believed Camporee’s was the best way  for Nuisance Wildlife Control Control Operator’s  to get together learn and share trade ideas.
