    Cloudland Canyon State Park Campground

    Backcountry Camping That's Nicely Balanced

    One of my favorite campgrounds in Georgia is at Cloudland Canyon State Park. A small hike from the parking area, there's plenty of space in these woods for a quaint and quiet stay. Our backcountry campground had a fire pit and even a picnic table, and was nestled beside a babbling brook. We set up our tents, hung our hammocks and got cooking as soon as we arrived. The next morning, the sun's early rays could be seen from our tent opening, making for an epic start to the day. There are outhouses nearby and the visitor's center is only a few minutes' drive away if anyone in your camping party desires running water. A great balance! All the hikes around Cloudland are winners, and you can easily spend the weekend there.

    Cloudland Canyon State Park Campground

    Those views tho

    Incredible views at a great state park! Stayed three nights over Easter Weekend in the East Rim. The East Rim is located on the main park road and about 5 minutes walk from the Trail Heads. Your camper is on display for all the day trippers but TOTALLY WORTH IT for the majestic views! Your afternoon stroll includes 2 waterfalls, multiple overlooks, woodlands, and gorgeous canyons. We drove over to the West Rim and it was much more woodsy and secluded, but we were there for the walking so did not mind the activity and open sites of the East Rim.

    Bathhouse was tidy, stocked, and heated. Could use a deep cleaning, but nothing that was unsanitary. Super hot showers! Washing machine had been removed but did have a sink to hand-wash and a dryer. Each bathhouse in the West Rim was supposed to have laundry as well so could drive over if necessary.

    Our site did have plastic and debris scattered around including inside the fire pit, so we left it cleaner than we found it.

    Loved the fact that they had aluminum recycling!

    The surroundings absolutely deserve 5 stars, just docking one for the trash left at the site. Will be back to tackle more of the trails!

    Fort Mountain State Park Campground

    Great Campground

    We love camping at Fort Mountain. Its usually a good bit cooler due to the elevation, and the private wooded campsites make tent camping in Georgia’s summer heat much more enjoyable. Good hiking and things to do nearby.

    Clean, well-maintained, phenomenal scenery

    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.

    Lookout Mountain-Chattanooga West KOA

    Nice but not welcoming

    This is a nice spot with decent sites. It has a large although dated pool with minimal seating and no shade, there is a pavilion with shade on the other side of the pool fence. The dog park is large but all gravel with no grass or dirt. There is a jump pillow which the kids enjoyed. The real downfall to this KOA is the not welcoming and unfriendly staff. The check in process felt aggressive and any encounter with staff that I was involved in or witnessed was not very friendly at all.

    Marion County Park

    Beautiful campsite!

    Clean, and well maintained. Tent camping along the edge of the river. Fire pits or grills, picnic tables, clean bathroom, and hot showers. If you are a light sleeper, the traffic noise from the highway might be disturbing. Good fishing. It was a nice overnighter on our way North.

    Clark Creek South Campground

    Great view of the Lake

    The campsite was right next to the swimming beach so little to no privacy and very loud. Although I slept very well in my tent because Quiet hours were observed. It was nice waking up to view of Lake Allatoona. Lady at the gate was rude when checking in so make sure to “READ the sign!” Other than that bathrooms were clean and they have laundry and hot water showers. Will most likely be back!

    Tennessee Wall Camp

    Beautiful sites, close quarters with other campers

    We really enjoyed our night tent camping here. There is a parking lot right off the road after a fun ~30 minute drive through residential roads right on the water, then sites with fire pits are scattered throughout a small clearing. Plety of firewood to collect on site. There was another group of campers at a spot fairly close to us making some noise, but not too late into the night. With respectful campers nearby, this is a great spot to spend a relaxing night.

    Cloudland Canyon State Park Campground

    Great shaded spacious sites

    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!


Guide to Armuchee

Dispersed camping options near Armuchee, Georgia range from primitive sites in the Chattahoochee National Forest to established campgrounds with basic amenities. The area sits at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, with elevations ranging from 600-1,800 feet creating diverse microclimates. Most dispersed sites in the John's Mountain WMA remain accessible year-round, though fall brings increased competition for spots during peak foliage season.

What to do

Fishing access points: At Coosa River County Park, visitors can fish directly from campsites or use the nearby dam. "Access to boat ramp and lock & dam which is a very popular fishing area," notes one camper, adding that "views of Coosa river and the mountains in distant is nice."

Mountain biking trails: Fort Mountain State Park offers technical mountain biking routes with substantial elevation changes. A reviewer explains, "Most of the trails except the Gahuti are multi use and there is a strong community of mountain biking here. We didn't bike the trails here with our hybrid specialized bikes because we felt the trails to be too technical for us due to the major elevation changes, loose gravel and rocks."

Creek exploration: At Cedar Creek RV & Outdoor Center, kayaking is a primary attraction. One visitor observed, "Kayaking is one of the main activities. Kayak rentals and sales." The creek provides gentle paddling opportunities suitable for beginners and families.

What campers like

Primitive sites with privacy: The walk-in tent sites at Cloudland Canyon State Park offer seclusion while maintaining access to facilities. One camper shared, "Love the tent-only serenity of the walk-in sites. There is a separate parking lot at the back of the park for the walk-in sites, which are a short distance away (easy to haul your gear)."

Platform camping experience: At Fort Mountain State Park, elevated platform sites create a unique overnight option. A camper described her experience: "I've never slept outside of a tent. I've always wanted to, but never had the guts to do it... The site itself was in a beautiful location, had a hand pump on site, and also had a shared bear proof storage box."

Lakeside yurt accommodations: Red Top Mountain State Park offers yurt options for those seeking more comfort. A visitor noted, "They have rental cottages and yurts makes it a great choice for people who want a more relaxed camping experience too."

What you should know

Bear activity: Wildlife encounters, particularly bears, are common in the area's campgrounds. At Fort Mountain State Park, a ranger will "warn you about [bears] upon arrival" according to one camper, while another reported that "two other couples at two separate platform sites had encounters with a bear the same weekend I was here."

Road conditions: Some campground access roads require careful navigation. At McKinney Campground, campers appreciate the "beautiful lake views" but warn about the roads, with one noting they'd "be cautious about those narrow roads, but once you're set up, it seems totally worth it."

Reservation systems: Most state parks require advance booking, especially for specialized accommodations. At John's Mountain WMA, campsites operate differently. A visitor reported, "The camp sites on the creek are shut down by the DNR. We stayed at spot 11. Its the first turn in on the street. Free to camp there and a good fire ring."

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Calhoun A-OK Campground offers family amenities including multiple play areas. One visitor mentioned, "We love spending the day by the pool. Highly recommend and can't wait to go back!" while another noted, "Dog park looked clean, if small. Playground had some 'old school' equipment great for older kids."

Swimming opportunities: At Woodring Campground, families can enjoy water activities with easy access. A reviewer shared, "We enjoyed the campground with the lake/beach area for the kids to swim. Very relaxing and the sites had some room to run around."

Yurt camping advantages: For families new to yurt camping near Armuchee, Georgia, state parks offer solid structures with amenities. One camper at Cloudland Canyon noted, "They are spaced away from each other and off the road, and offer a lot of privacy; the loop that serves the yurts is not connected to any other road, and has a shelter, playground, and bathhouse."

Tips from RVers

Site selection priorities: At Woodring Campground, RV sites vary considerably in quality and access. A camper advised, "Some sites are more private than others, bath and showers, few have steep trails to lake." Another noted some sites allow you to "tie your boat up right next to them."

Hookup limitations: Many area campgrounds offer only partial hookups. At Cedar Creek RV & Outdoor Center, a visitor mentioned, "Our site did not have sewer but there is a dump station," while another at McKinney Campground explained, "all sites have water and electric. A few have full hook ups."

Road navigation challenges: Large RVs may struggle at certain campgrounds. One RVer at Calhoun A-OK Campground warned about "narrow roads in the campground with lots of pot holes. Not the easiest state park to pull a travel trailer in. Sites were very narrow."
