West Rim — Cloudland Canyon State Park

The campground is very clean and like new. We used our pop up and the site we used was very level.
Excellent hiking and views of the canyon.

This place seems to have it all. The hikes are diverse from walking along the edge of a canyon with beautiful vistas to trekking through the gulch with canyon walls towering overhead. The waterfalls are beautiful too although they were all but non-existent after the recent dry weather. The campsites offer good privacy with clean facilities.

Recent updates, nice pads, full hookups, good cell service

Our first time at Walk in camp #14

So quiet, many trails, native blueberries in season. Easy to get to campground, navigate to our site and exit to dump site. Our can site was spacious, clean and so quiet.

Wooded tent and RV sites that are very nice and well spaced out to give plenty of privacy. This area also has yurts available that are set up with beds and heating/AC so they make a good option in the hot months. Lots of great hiking and views on this side of the canyon and it also tends to be a little less crowded.

The campsites on the West Rim Loop are spacious, and well separated by distance and woods. Our site, 13, was easy to back into, and leveled with fine gravel.

The bathrooms are clean and well maintained, with a hot shower.

For a state park campground, this was quite comfortable. The bathhouse was clean and useful. We enjoyed the hike to Cherokee falls right from the campground (near our site, 21).

The sites were wooded and spacious to us. Also there are gray water dump sites all over the place and a simple playground.

Will definitely return.

Some sites are a bit close together, others are more private. We were on 29. A bit close to neighbor. Separate fire pit area with separate grill was a nice feature. Very nice to have electric and water on site. So many hiking trails. Very well maintained and marked but lots of stairs. Trail maps however not the best. Cherokee Falls is beautiful.

This park is beautiful, has ample hiking trails and well-maintained sites, with clean restrooms. We stayed here for one night and enjoyed our time hiking several of the trails that start right from the campsite.

Love Cloudland Canyon. Originally from the area, came back for a few days and camped at the West Rim campground. Great spots back in the woods, very private, near the canyon. Make sure you hike the falls when you’re here!! Well worth it.

We typically search for campgrounds based on hikes that we want to do. This state park offered great options for both! It is split up in two campgrounds: East Rim & West Rim. This campsite is on the West Rim campground. Lots of spacious sites, but also lots of narrow sites with trees that could be in the way for slide outs. The bathhouse is old, but it was clean.

I loved that you could access hiking trails and hike to the waterfalls directly from the campground! However, the overlooks are much closer to the East rim. We decided to drive due to distance.

We purchased a couple of bundles of wood from the camp store, but unfortunately the wood wasn’t seasoned so we had a difficult time with one fire all weekend.

Overall, this is a great park and we will definitely return to camp and hike here again!

Excellent trails, well maintained site well worth a visit

Stayed at campsite 3, across from the camp host, and in front of playground and bathrooms.

Very large, very widely spaced campsites. Sites were comfortable for tent camping, but there were few tent campers when we were there.

Bathrooms were clean, and had hot showers, but had a lot of deferred maintenance. 

The Fall hiking  was spectacular. It's a beautiful place to see the hardwoods change color. Trails are well maintained.

We really enjoyed the scenery and how close the bathrooms were. We enjoyed the trees and how big the place was. Very spacious and beautiful. Super enjoyable place. Would highly recommend.

Wow! Camped at west rim site 17, and it was huge, with tons of room. Fire ring is a distance away from the rv, so that is awesome. Shady, and close to the west rim trail! Just heaven!

We stayed at site 7 in the West Rim Campground and it was beautiful! A little tricky to back into, but we got it. A little bit of a trek to the bath house but manageable. Our site was spacious and secluded which is what we like. The bath house could use a little update but I have seen worse. We loved this park and all the views! We hiked to Hemlock Falls and wasn't prepared for all of those stairs - I'm not in shape and the climb up was hard, but the views at the bottom were gorgeous.

It was an amazing park with super cool waterfalls!

This campground is so beautiful! We were able to take trails, see waterfalls and go to the west rim. We stayed at the west rim side of the campground. We would absolutely go back!!

For being on a road trip and needing a quick place to stay, this campground fits the bill. Reservation is easy and it’s easy to get to. The camp site is loose gravel which makes it difficult to stake a tent in if necessary. For my personal preference it’s a little crowded and there were a lot of RVs. The smell of propane and the sound of music is not my ideal. I understand though. It was suitable for a good night’s sleep and felt safe.

I know there are walk-in sites in this location too so if I come again that will be my choice.

Beautiful hikes. My son made me hike the stairs down to the falls at least twice a day. Our campsite had no shade and was brutally hot during the day. The picnic table was on an incline, which ,add it uncomfortable to eat. Very close to the bathrooms, though, which was nice.

Easy to follow maps, beautiful scenery with waterfalls. Hiked 13 miles trails are clean and taken care of. Staff helpful and friendly. My dog loved it. Pet friendly. Very nice camp ground for camping in tent.

Cloudland Canyon is great place to just relax or hike one of the many trails. Georgia’s version of the Grand Canyon.

We stayed in the standard site. Very large sites on two main loops. Basic bathrooms. Grey water drains throughout loops. Connector trails to main trails.

We loved the waterfall

Was lucky to reserve a spot on full moon, great park,clean and warm bathrooms!

This was our very first outing in our 22RBE. It was worth the trip. The sites were spacious and easy for a newby to maneuver around in. Rey clean and quite. We will return.

We stayed here in Feb 2020 with family in another rv. We had 2 spacious sites next to each other. Electric and water hookups. Both sites were level. Park staff and camp host helpful and friendly. Hiking was enjoyable and easily accessible from rv camping area. Bath houses were clean and water was hot. Will return in the future .

We stayed on site 39. It was really large, gravel, flat spot with lots of shade trees. Looked into the woods. Plenty of space for our two golden retrievers. I liked that the fire ring was a little away from our camper, so not to worry about the awning with a big fire. Most sites were setup that way. Any of the sites in the West Rim area are really nice. They have nice bathroom facilities that are clean and also laundry facilities. The campground itself was very clean and well kept. They do have playgrounds, very small fishing pond, disc golf. Camp hosts were very friendly and helpful. Connecting trails from campground to the major trails. Due to COVID-19 I saw more trash in some areas than usual. People if you come to the park, be a good steward and take care of it. Great place for families to enjoy the outdoors. One of Georgia’s great State Parks!
