Camping On the River: A majority of the land is privately owned so there are no officially designated camping sites along the river. There are two islands where locals camp, and some people paddle a short distance up Dry Creek and camp on a spot on the left side of the creek. Sandbars are extremely limited along the Chipola, so one cannot expect to camp on sandbars.
