Birthday at Hawkins Ridge
We celebrated a family birthday with a total of sixteen family members. We thoroughly enjoyed the fishing boats, paddle boats, canoe, paddle board and kayak. The grandchildren enjoyed fishing and swimming. The water was surprisingly clear! The owner was very accommodating. It was a great weekend!

So fun!
We had a blast! Lots to do for everyone. Great facility for a crowd. Excellent communication from owner and caretaker. My only comments are that the twin beds are not comfortable and the entire facility is quite old. But we didn’t mind too much because it was completely functional and pretty clean too. We will come back here !

Hawkins Ridge Wedding
Our experience with Hawkins Ridge was nothing short of perfect! The lodge was spotless and ready for us to use as soon as we arrived and the owner was always close by to check on us throughout our stay. We had our wedding out there and it was everything we dreamed of! Spacious, clean, accommodating for everyone out there, and there were quite a bit of us! We enjoyed every part of our stay. We had the our wedding dreams come true!

The Great Getaway
This place was fantastic for our family getaway and the perfect venue to celebrate my dad’s 80th birthday. Tons of space so everyone could spread out in the lodge. We had plenty of room for the celebration with the invited guests. The host made everything go very well form check-in to check out. From the exotic animals on the property, access to the private pond and great sunsets, it was an excellent getaway. Nothing like country living in a great lodge with so much privacy.

It's difficult to find places for our family vacation..there are 16 of us..and this year we had other families joining;;so we had 26 for a couple of days. This place was perfect for our family. Clean, accomodating, huge commercial, well-stocked kitchen, huge dining room for us to eat together, separate game room, private lake and lake house, kyacks, paddle boat, fishing boats provided, animals to observe, many trails on 400 acres, shooting ranges, inground tampolene, tours provided by our gracious hosts, washer and dryers, plenty of linens...church near by...absolutley perfect for our family!! We highly recommend Hawkins Ridge Lodge!!!

Great place for a big family to relax and have fun.
Hawkins Ridge was perfect for our family reunion of 20 people. It has the largest great room and best kitchen/dining setup we've seen for a big group. The private lake was really fun for playing and fishing. We had kids of all ages playing at the lake for 3 days with no whining about being bored. The one thing this property could use is some new mattresses. Some of them we pretty rough for sleeping.

Reunion/wedding
We had a great time, the property is beautiful, private and clean. We had a family reunion and wedding all at the lodge. The owner and staff were incredibly friendly and addresses any issues immediately, “not that we had many”. The lodge is beautiful and well maintained. I recommend Hawkins Ridge for any event, contact the owner he will do everything in his power to make your event special! I would give it 10 stars if I could. I would like to thank the owner and his staff, we had suck a great time, Thank You!

Family Vacation/Gator hunt on Lake Eufaula
Our stay was perfect! We needed a place big enough for 18 people close to Lake Eufaula for the gator hunt. Except for while on Lake Eufaula, we never left the property. We occupied ourselves with helping Jake feed the animals, swimming and fishing at the lake, playing pool or cards at the lodge, relaxing on the porch, or enjoying a big family meal in the dining hall. Mr. Craig Hawkins, his son Jake, and all of the staff are excellent hosts, very accommodating, and just great people. Can’t say enough good things about them or our stay at the lodge!

Church Youth Retreat
We found Hawkins Ridge lodge on VRBO when searching for a place to host our church youth retreat. This place is HUGE and perfect for large parties. The kitchen/dining area made meals time super easy and functional. The lodge living room area made an awesome place for our nightly Bible studies. The game room was a hit for everyone there. The private lake made for fun mornings while being close to Lake Eufaula made for fun afternoons! Our two littles enjoyed adventuring around the property with our youth group and playing on the playground. The wild animals were so fun to watch and enjoy. Overall, 10/10 recommend this lodge. We will be returning!

Awesome get away
22 family and we made all our meals in the large kitchen and ate together in the dining area. Beds for everyone even though some of the kids slept on the couch, large living room. Beautiful lake with paddle boat, kayaking, fishing boats with trolling motors and a boat with AC to cool off in and play games. Craig , the owner was awesome, only a phone call away very friendly and welcoming and his son Jake took us to see the animals . We made family pictures on the front porch and the tractor in the yard, turned out beautiful. A very relaxing vacation for everyone. Great family time.

This is our 2nd year coming to Hawkins Ridge!
This place has been a great place for our friends group 6/7 couples to come for a full long weekend. We love the privacy and location of the place. It is so peaceful. Beautiful area! We do enjoy getting everyone together around the fire pit at night after a fantastic dinner cooked in the commercial size kitchen. No need to bring anything but your food. It is fully stocked with all the equipment you need. We have been fishing and enjoying the animals that are on the property as well. Mr. Hawkins, family and staff were very helpful. Just wonderful people. We certainly have enjoyed our visit and look forward to coming back next year again!

Great place to stay!
Everyone was very impressed with the size and room. It was just wonderful. We had 11 adults staying over night. Family with five children and 3 more adults came for the day on Saturday cookout. The kids loved the huge playground and extra sliding boards. They had a great time fishing and looking at the different animals there on the property. Mr. Hawkins was available if we had any questions or needed extra help with anything. We felt welcomed right away. The property is absolutely beautiful and quite with a lot of rustic charm. Very well kept. We all had the best time and We will definitely be back. Thank you Mr. Hawkins, our family and friends are still talking about the beauty and fun!

Absolutely Great!
Great family reunion location! The lodge was perfect. There were ten of us and had lots and lots of room for everyone. Each of the bedrooms had it's own bathroom. The living room was comfortable with a plenty of seating and large TV. The next room had a pool table which we all enjoyed very much. The kitchen and huge dining room was across a deck. Dining room seated 20 and the kitchen was great. Huge refrigerator and gas restaurant stove. The lawn and outside area was beautiful. Perfect for the boys to play baseball. Across the driveway was a great playground. Up the driveway was an animal compound for viewing. Bison, sheep, goats. A sweet camel and donkey. There was also a large herd of Watusi cattle which were absolutely magnificent! A short walk or drive down past the owners house was a beautiful little lake complete with deck and covered dock. Also an enclosed air conditioned room. There were ample cayaks and boats. Lots of fish in the lake. Birds everywhere. The Hawkins family were friendly and very helpful. The place was absolutely perfect for our vacation and a welcome change from the busy beach vacations we usually go on. The price was unbeatable for 10. We are very happy with our choice.

Family Getaway
This is a great place to get away and relax. It has everything that one needs for a great vacation. One doesn't have to leave the property to enjoy the property. The lake was great for swimming, fishing and paddle boating. Everything the one needs is right in one location with plenty of room for everyone to find something of interest. Plenty of games for family time after dinner. Would visit the location again if in the area. The host and his family were great. Would recommend to others visiting the area.

Perfect for Multigenerational Family Gathering
The owner was very friendly, helpful, and communicated well throughout. The property was exactly as described and was perfect for a multigenerational family gathering. It’s a large beautiful property with plenty to do onsite. Everyone loved paddling and swimming in the lake, hanging out in the various large rooms and using the amenities in the commercial kitchen. We will definitely stay again when we need a place to sleep a large group in the area. Highly recommend!
