    Jenny's Creek Family Campground

    Great Family Campground!

    We stayed here over July 4th weekend and it was a really great experience! The campground is nice and well kept. The bathrooms were so clean and so nice! They are air conditioned with three stall and three showers. They also have a nice playground on site as well as a air conditioned club house they provides a nice break from the heat. They also have firewood and I’ve on site which is really convenient. The owners are super nice and come by each morning to pick up your trash. We enjoyed fishing in the pond and trekking through the creek. We would highly recommend for anyone camping in the Cleveland/Helen area.

    Two Wheels of Suchess

    Love TWoS!!!

    I have stayed here 3 or 4 times. The owner takes great great pride in his ownership. He was able to buy it from a family whom let the place go down hill then rebuilt it himself with family and friends. The cabins are warm at night without the need for a heat source. The shower house is also climate controlled. There are no designated places for tents therefore you don't necessarily have to stay in the first spot you picked. Another thing I love about the ownership is your bill is on the honor system. They will not hound you about what you owe. You can pay as you go or wait for the total as you leave. You are far enough in the sticks but also close to whatever you need from down the road. He placed 2 or 3 (can't remember) posts for electricity and never complained about me stinging my 100' extension cord through the creek so we could enjoy the fire pits as well as the electricity for phones and tent heaters. Their food is very good too sadly, only on the weekends from Friday evening to Sunday morning.

    Chilhowee Recreation Area

    Great place during lightning bug season!

    This campground is great! It has clean bathrooms with showers, fire rings with grill grates, lots of hiking, hike to a beautiful waterfall, huge lake to swim or float on a raft, and the lightning bugs were breath taking!!

    We stayed at site #39. Next to the trail that leads to the lake. Next to rest room, trash bin, and water spout. This specific site has the driveway and then stairs to the fire/table/tent pad. We set our large tent on the tent pad and a smaller tent on the driveway next to the stairs.

    Pros: No reservation needed. Warmish showers. Hiking. Lake to swim in. Beautiful waterfall. Perfect to see millions of lightning bugs. Easy payment (put money in slip and put in bin, and yes they do check). Pets allowed.

    Cons: we had the WORST neighbors I’ve ever experienced while camping! The staff warned them about quiet hours but never came back to in force it. Fire ring grill topper was broke off.

    DON’T drive up the dirt path, we made that mistake. Take the regular rode. GPS sends you automatically to the dirt road.

    Over all I’m defiantly going to camp there again. Well kept and overall has a lot to offer

    Morganton Point Campground

    Great mountain getaway!

    We stayed at Morganton for a couple days in late September.  Well kept sites, beautiful lake views, great camp host, and the bathhouse was clean.   Some sites have water and electric, and some do not.  The best sites are further away from the entrance and near the lake.  We were on site 3 (near entrance), which was spacious and level, so we had two vehicle and our 17' Casita with plenty of room left over.  However, there is large, bright light that comes on at dusk and stays on all night.  Lots of hiking around, and we took a canoe paddle on the Toccoa River.  The town of Blue Ridge nice with lots of shops and restaurants, albeit busy on a Saturday.  We will definitely come back again, as we really enjoyed our time here.

    Amicalola Falls State Park Camping

    Beautiful park

    We stayed at the State park from June 6-9. There are only about 24 sites, some cabins, and some new glamping tents. There is a bathhouse with individual showers. You are fairly close to the lodge. You are also right at the falls. BEWARE- there is a steep 24% grade getting to the campground. The campground was neat, clean, and quiet.

    Charming Tree House in the Forest

    Wanna feel like a kid again? (A playful treehouse in the NC foothills)

    My family of three stayed here for one night in late June. We got in a little late, around 7:30 pm, after we met up with some friends for dinner in Murphy.  My one regret is that we did not get here earlier to allow more time for play during daylight hours. If you are not entertained at this site, you are not trying hard enough. There is an amazing amount to do in this small space. First is the treehouse itself. You can get up into it by climbing up a spiral staircase or up rungs on one of the support logs. To get down you can go down one of two slides or shimmy down a firepole. Inside the treehouse are two twin bunk beds and one fold out cot. The space inside is rather small. With the cot folded out there was barely any room to move. However, since you will only be inside to sleep, it works. The beds were fairly comfortable, though the top bunk is quite close to the roof. I slept in the top bunk and my husband slept on the bottom. Every time I would turn over in the night I would hit my knee on the roof and wake him up.  :)  There is also a small table, first aid kit, candles, and a composting toilet with a curtain in the corner.  The toliet was a bucket with a seat, and not being used to such a small, low potty, it was a little uncomfortable, but doable. The treehouse is not sealed - the roof is sound but there are spaces between the planks on the sides (screen has been placed over the sides to help control bugs). The windows have cloth hangings, and one of the entries has a closing door. The other is wide open. Being summer, I was worried about heat and bugs, but I didn't have a problem with either. We were provided two battery-powered fans to keep us cool. By the time they died it as late enough that heat wasn't a problem. 

    Now that's I've described the treehouse, let's talk about the rest of the site. Underneath the sleeping platform is a ground floor platform with a hammock and small propane stove with pots. A water cooler and trash can are also here. A few steps away is a firepit, and a few chairs, with provided firewood and marshmellow-roasting utensils. For play, there are hula hoops, a half-buried tire to climb on, a slack line, and a tremendously cool rope swing. This swing is about 30 feet high, and to start to climb up to a platform 5 feet above the ground. When you swing, it is a huge pendulum. What a thrill! Next to the treehouse is a homemade sled slide (see pics) that is also a blast. Down next to another rented space (the Hollar House) is a small zipline. Up the hill are blackberry bushes. So like I said, lots to keep you happy and entertained. 

    The lows: There's always got to be a couple things about a place that I wish could be better. For us, it was the Hollar House. The folks staying there came in at 9:30 pm and their headlights showed right into the treehouse. When they spent a minute or two turning around their car in front of the house, the lights blinded us at the campfire. And when they turned on the string lights on the porch and went inside, it was too bright to enjoy being around the campfire. I went over and kindly asked them to turn the lights off, since they weren't outside anyway, and they graciously obliged, but other campers may not be able to or want to approach strangers to ask them to turn off lights. 

    The highs: Besides the cool swings and slides, the owners were most definitely the best. Emilie and her two sons were very friendly and helpful in greeting us and getting us squared away. Her youngest son was the same age as my daughter and they had a great time playing together. She gave us bowls to collect blackberries and showed us how the swings and zip line worked. Awesome folks. 

    Overall, would recommend. Don't come here expecting a 5-star suite. It is tight and rustic. But it is a lot of fun!

    Hiwassee River Area

    Hiwassee Outfitter Campground

    Our first time here at the Hiwassee Outfitter camping area in Reliance, Tennessee. Most campsites have river view or stream view. One large circle, mostly tent camping. No electric hookup. Water spigots throughout the campground but not directly at each site. Each campsite has a picnic table and fire ring. Very spacious camping on level dirt or grass ground. We had 2 tents and could have fit 3 more. No lights, so it’s pretty dark after 10pm. Campground is next to the outfitters where you can rent kayaks, floats and rafts. We used the Webb Brothers rental company 0.5 miles down the road from the campground because they had same day availability without reservations. The bathhouse has hot showers and flush toilets but it’s rather rustic due to all people using it coming off the river. There is no charge to use the showers. The bathhouse is shared with the daily rafters. Camp-store on site. No phone signal which is ok with us because we like to unplug. There is free WiFi available at the rafting Outfitter store. There is a small restaurant about a mile away “FlipFlop Burger place”; which was a nice surprise. We overlooked the Hiwassee on campsite 43. The river is smooth until 11am. We went fly fishing right from the campsite. The water gets released at 11am, so the current picks up and water levels will rise quickly. A nice place to camp if you come for water fun. If you don’t mind the muddy bathrooms then this is the place for you. We will be back for sure.


Guide to Blue Ridge

Camping options near Blue Ridge, Georgia include established campgrounds in the Chattahoochee National Forest and privately owned facilities at elevations between 1,800-3,000 feet. Winter temperatures average 28-45°F while summer brings 65-85°F with moderate humidity. Most campgrounds remain accessible from April through November, though several stay open year-round with limited amenities during winter months.

What to do

Hiking to waterfalls: At Amicalola Falls State Park Camping, explore Georgia's tallest waterfall at 730 feet. "The hiking trails are amazing. The falls are beautiful. It was very busy parking was a bit of a challenge but worth it," notes Holly B. The moderate hike includes 400+ steps from base to top.

Lake activities: Morganton Point Campground offers swimming, fishing and paddling on Lake Blue Ridge. "We were on lot 14 which was quite spacious with easy access to the water. Tent was located away from the fire pit and picnic table and the restrooms were close by," reports Tia K. Kayak and paddleboard rentals cost $35 per craft at the beachside location.

Mountain biking: Multiple technical trails await at Fort Mountain State Park. "The trails are not blazed. We suggest everyone wear a helmet not just the required 16 years and younger group," advises Travyl Couple. Most trails include significant elevation changes on loose gravel surfaces requiring intermediate skills.

What campers like

Private tent sites: Vogel State Park Campground features walk-in tent sites in secluded settings. "We choose the walk in as the parking was still really close but there are only two of these sites. The creek runs right next to them and it was so peaceful and beautiful," shares Angela M. Sites cost $30 nightly.

Creekside camping: At Mulky Campground, sites sit alongside flowing water. "The camp spots are spacious and covered with tree canopies. You have a stream right by you no matter where you camp," explains Savannah C. Sites feature gravel tent pads with surrounding trees suitable for hammocks.

Wildlife viewing: Bears frequent some campgrounds in the region. "We had bear visitors, something they'll warn you about upon arrival. The bears just added to the appeal of this place though," reports Shelly C. about her Fort Mountain State Park experience. Bear-proof storage boxes are provided at some campsites.

What you should know

Road conditions: Reaching Chilhowee Recreation Area requires navigating steep terrain. "To get to this campground you have to go up a steep narrow windy mountain road," warns Carissa D. Similar access challenges exist at several Blue Ridge area campgrounds, making arrival during daylight hours advisable.

Site preparation: Many campgrounds have challenging terrain. "In most advertisements, the phrase 'one of the oldest and most beloved state parks' is used and frankly, I see why. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay," shares Dave V. about Vogel State Park, though noting "the ground was hard & pretty level. Make sure you have solid tent spikes."

Limited connectivity: Cell service varies dramatically by campground and carrier. "There is NO AT&T in spite of what this site says. You may get a weak signal on the other side, but it's spotty at best. There appeared to be a Verizon tower on the mountain, so that will probably work," reports Mike N. about Chilhowee.

Tips for camping with families

Winter camping options: Unicoi State Park & Lodge remains open year-round. "Stayed Feb 19th till 21st. Great well kept campground with clean bath houses. Our site was right on the creek," shares Jennifer. Winter camping typically costs 10-20% less than peak season rates.

Playground access: Many parks offer designated play areas. "My kids and I went camping at Unicoi Park in the summer and there is plenty to keep them busy. They played in the creek, on the swing set and walked the trail to the swimming section of the lake," reports Diane G. Fort Mountain State Park also features a playground near the lake area.

Educational opportunities: Several campgrounds offer learning experiences. "One of the best campgrounds, hands down. As an Eagle Scout from around this area, this was our go-to place for summer camp and occasional other camping trips as well," notes Ethan about Camp Woodruff. Some parks offer ranger-led programs during summer months.

Tips from RVers

Site selection challenges: At Trackrock Campground & Cabins, maneuvering requires careful planning. "We were recommended to stay at site 25 by the worker at check in. Very steep and unlevel roads; especially when leaving," warns Anthony M., who experienced equipment damage with his fifth wheel. Request detailed site information before booking.

Electrical limitations: Many campgrounds offer only limited power. "We had one outlet and water, a picnic table and a firepit. After setting up around 8 pm we cooled off by the fire. Our ac has its own plug, and there was nowhere to plug it in," reports Karen R. about Trackrock. Bring power adapters and extension cords for most sites.

Dump station access: At Fort Mountain State Park, RVers note varying dump station experiences. "From the B loop, you have to traverse about a 120 degree switchback to get to it. My friend who was there pulling a 5th wheel decided not to try it and opted to pay to dump somewhere else," shares Mike N., though adding "Once there, it was probably the best dump station I've ever used."
