Cooper Creek

I booked a site here via the Recreation.gov website just as they require. We got to the campground and someone had set up several tents, canopies, etc in the site we had booked/paid for. There is zero cell service and the “pay station” tells you reservations are required via the app or call a number to book, which is ludicrous considering you have to drive 30 minutes down a windy forest service rd to get a cell signal. No sign of a camp host either. Not in the mood to argue with someone in the wilderness, we drove on. I appreciate technology, but it’s aggravating to pay for a site then not get to use it. Remote campgrounds need to be left first come, first serve with pay envelopes like the old days.

Quiet and protected area beside Cooper creek. Easy to get in and out been with a small overland trailer.

Great fishing. Nuff said. Outhouse toilets, manual water pumps, if you like it fancy then go somewhere else. Did I mention the fishing was great. All said aside, we had a great time. It’s close to other good fishing and the campsites were spaced out nicely. Stay with 14, 15, 16, they are the best ones. We stayed at 18. And it was good as well.

Great campsites. Serene. Beautiful. Great fishing. Peaceful. Totally off the grid.

No cell service No showers No flush toilets Bathrooms would have been better if there was some sort of ventilation and air freshener Gravel road pretty bumpy if you don’t have an SUV or truck

Nice campground on coopers creek. Great trout fishing.

Great place to take the kids. It’s was secluded which meant no cell service. Something to call out for an emergency would be great. I will continue to visit!

This is a lovely campground in the woods. The road to get there is very curvy and gravel so a large trailer should probably steer clear. This place is tucked into the mountains of Georgia we would highly recommend if it wasn’t SO DANG NOISY. Seriously was awakened at least 3 times a night (Every night) with people being loud playing music, walking the road Talking loud or just driving by super fast. The sites are fairly spaced out, except the 4 water front sites they are pretty close together. We stayed at site 3 and it was a great site except it was right by main road. There was a small stream that ran through it and my kids LOVED it. Lots of creatures to find and explore. The hike Trail by the campsites was nice. We had a good stay minus all the noise but honestly won’t be back because of the Noise.

We drove out from Atlanta and used campsite 12 (I think) which was pretty small but worked for us. If campsite 11 hadn't been so noisey this would have been a perfect retreat. For the record they do have a decent distance between them but the young adults there showed up late and stayed up late.

This campground was great! It was very clean and well maintained. Although the dirt road that led to the campground was a bit sketchy if you're not use to mountain driving, it is very well maintained as well. The fishing was great too. This was my first time trout fishing in North Georgia but I was able to catch plenty of trout. I highly recommend this campground for those looking for some seclusion.

Fun place to camp, especially if you want to get away. Primitive-no running water in winter so pack that in. Fire pits have a swivel grill, ideal to cook with the cast iron over the fire. There's a local store a couple minutes away. Rainbow trout right at the site. We drove up from Florida with a bunch of people that had never trout or fly-fished before. Everyone ended up catching fish and having a great time. When you're not exploring the creek, there's plenty of hiking trails to adventure as well!

With a campsite right on the creek you can’t really go wrong the camp hosts were as sweet as can be

Located in the Chatahoochee National Forest, this campground is primitive, but there are outhouses.  The creek is very peaceful and well stocked with trout, along with some natives, but mostly stocked fish.  Most of the camp sites are along the creek which makes this a great place to stay.  It is first come, first served, so I suggest on any busy weekend, that you arrive on Thursday.

Love this place. So many amazing trails to hike. Great for fishing! There are limited stores around so make sure you come prepared before you settle in.

I just love this area. The camping spots are spacious and everyone has easy access to the creeks. Lots of trails/hiking to do not only in the campground area but all around (such as Toccoa River, Appalachian Trail and several waterfalls) The waters have both wild and stocked trout so fishing here is always fun. I highly recommend this campground.
