Reed Bingham State Park

Reed Bingham State Park is a 1,613-acre nature reserve in Adel with a 375-acre lake surrounded by tupelo trees. The park offers year-round opportunities for boating, fishing, and other water sports activities.

The park was named after Amos Reed Bingham and became a significant part of Georgia's state park system. Its establishment reflected the state's commitment to wildlife protection and recreational development in the region.

The park serves as an educational center where visitors learn about coastal plain ecosystems through interpretive programs and direct observation of native plant species.

The park has 46 camping sites with modern facilities including cable TV and sewage hookups. There are also four group shelters available that can accommodate between 50 and 120 people.

During winter months, thousands of black and turkey vultures gather in the park creating an extraordinary sight. They roost together in trees, making the location special for observation.
