Another great trip to Andrew’s Cove!

I’ve been visiting Andrew’s Cove most of my life, and I call it the “family campground” because we’ve spent many long holiday weekends there. This past weekend was my first trip back in since COVID, and I was not disappointed. They’ve installed fancy new fire pits with grills and have updated the site markers. It looked great. I did notice lots of trees had been cut which made it less shady than usual. I’ll be brining a tent to put over the picnic next time. The bathrooms were disgusting, but the creek running through the camp ground makes the trip to the loo worth it. There were lots of folks driving through on Saturday afternoon, but the “traffic” slowed down around dust leaving us with a calm and quiet experience. I can’t recommend Andrew’s Cove enough! Of note is that there were signs around the camp ground saying that reservations will be taken on recreation.gov soon, so no more first come first serve.

Great, cheap site

Great little site outside Helen, only $12 to camp. There's a trail that leads 2 miles sand then you're on the AT, a creek food through the middle so you hear water all night and it covers up how close you are to the road. There's a basic toilet just hold your breath. All in all nice place for $12

Nice little camp site

Very nice little camp site, not crowded, spaced out, and plenty of shade. We car camped and couldn’t have been happier.

Loved it

About 8 shaded camp sites scattered around a creek. Just off the main road passing thru Helen. Easy to get to

Convenient car camping with quiet creek

Just off of 75, this camping area is easy to get to, no hiking in. Campsites are flat and level. Some sites have creekside access. Bathrooms and water are at the site. Campsites are pay by envelope.

Andrews Cove 2 mile out-and-back hike leaves from this campground. It’s moderate for about half, then becomes a strenuous climb at the end. Good workout.

Camping here you’re close to a lot of great hikes , and short drive from the town of Helen.

I’ve come to hike here a few times and seen campers leave a ton of trash so please clean up after yourself.
