On Tuesday, November 12, 2024 Macon-Bibb County will hold a groundbreaking ceremony to celebrate the start of a $600,000 SPLOST-funded improvement project at Claystone and Arrowhead Parks. The ceremony will be held at Claystone’s campground (6600 Moseley Dixon Road) at 2:00 p.m. and will be live streamed on www.Facebook.com/MaconBibbCounty.

Claystone’s campground closed on November 4, and Arrowhead’s campground will close December 4. They are expected to open later in the Spring of 2025; the rest of the parks will remain open during the construction.

“This construction is going to help us attract more campers to Lake Tobo because it’s going to greatly improve their experience here,” says Lake Tobesofkee Director Donald Bracewell. “They’ll have better access to water and electricity, and the pads will be much more durable and easier to set up on.”

Both campgrounds will get new landscape timbers and gravel poured, electrical boxes, and in-ground and above ground water connections. The biggest change will be replacing the asphalt pads with concrete pads. A total of 9 docks will be added to the two campgrounds that will be available for campers to use.
