Best RV Parks & Resorts near Carlton, GA

Several RV parks near Carlton, Georgia provide varied accommodations for motorhomes and travel trailers. Pine Lake RV Campground in Bishop features full hookup RV sites with 50-amp electrical service, water, and sewer connections. The campground supports big rigs with spacious pull-through RV pads and allows pets. "The sites at Hard Labor Creek are well spaced and the bath houses are spotless," noted one visitor, highlighting the clean facilities common to parks in this region. Thousand Trails Carolina Landing in Fair Play, South Carolina offers year-round camping with electric, water, and sewer hookups, though some sites lack sewer connections and require use of the dump station. Georgia RV Park in Commerce provides 50-amp service but prohibits campfires, creating a different atmosphere for overnight stays.

Navigation into several area RV parks requires careful planning due to steep terrain and tight turns. According to one visitor, "When you enter the park make sure you stay to the left of the sign. We made the mistake of going straight our first time at this park and almost lost our 5th wheel at the turn around by the lake." Cell service varies significantly between locations, with spotty coverage reported at some parks. Most RV campgrounds in the region maintain dump stations, though quality varies. Seasonal considerations affect availability, with fall being particularly busy at lakefront properties. Propane fill services are available at select locations, and laundry facilities are typically found near bathhouses. Pet policies generally allow dogs with standard restrictions, though enforcement of leash rules differs between parks.

    Tugaloo State Park Campground

    Great Lake

    This is a great campground. Lots of spacious campsites. Lots of choices. We were lakeside on a pull through that was a bit short for us. The site was amazing we could kayak up to our site. Pet friendly, family friendly. Power, Electric, gray water dumps near each site. Washer and dryer in each bathhouse. A beautiful campground.

    Hard Labor Creek State Park Campground

    One of the BEST!

    We were back at HLC this past weekend and, as always, top-notch park! We have tent camped for several years but recently upgraded to a new (to us) pop up and we had a blast!

    We camped at site 26 (one of the newer sites) and it had full hookup (our PUP does not have a bathroom but does have a galley). The site has electric (50 amp and 30 amp service) as well as free cable TV!!

    The sites at HLC are well spaced and the bath houses are spotless!!

    The park staff is amazing and the camp hosts are always cleaning up and are available if you need anything!

    HLC is our go-to spot for a weekend getaway because of the above-mentioned reasons and it is close to home!!

    Springfield - Hartwell Lake

    Nice well kept Corp of Engineers campground

    This is a typical Corp of Engineers campground, well kept with a variety of pull through and back-in sites.  Sites are 50/30/20 electric with water, picnic table and fire ring.  Many sites have a tent pad, are very level packed gravel/sand and well situated with very few having very close neighbors.  Shade is at a premium on some sites due to cutting of pine trees a couple of years ago but almost all are waterfront with an excellent view.  Some sites have direct access to the water allowing boats right at the site and swimming.  The swimming beach is very nice and well maintained as are the playgrounds.  Three bath houses are convenient to all loops, well maintained and clean.  Cell service is very good as is over the air TV with numerous channels available.  The dump station is easy in/out.  Sites 10 through 40 have awesome views of Lake Hartwell.

    Mistletoe State Park Campground

    Gorgeous and Tranquil in the Woods

    This place was so perfect and our first camping experience with our new 40 foot RV! Check-in was easy and they even let us change to a pull-through site last minute. The grounds were sooooo gorgeous! Trees everywhere. Walking trails. And of course the lake. We went during fall colors so it was really magical.

    PROS: Clean restrooms, spacious RV sites (they felt very private), many bathhouses within walking distance, friendly staff, nice gift shop 

    CONS: wet firewood and of course you had to buy from them, playground very small- made more for toddlers/preschool age, less than 5 years old, long walk to the dumpsters

    Thousand Trails Carolina Landing

    Lake and Woods Campground

    The campground itself is gorgeous, heavily wooded and lots of hills. It has great access to Lake Hartwell, and lots of sites. The sites are very close together throughout most of the park. The park also has lots of hills which can be a challenge for some RVs. There are also some very tight turns on these hills. Some campsites are level, some are very unlevel, there are lots of seasonal sites with built in porches making it very tight to get into the travelers spots that are mixed throughout the park.

    When you enter the park make sure you stay to the left of the sign. We made the mistake of going straight our first time at this park and almost lost our 5th wheel at the turn around by the lake. If you miss the turn you are safer backing up to the entrance.

    Cell Service: AT&T was minimal, T-Mobile was minimal.

    Not all sites have sewer and there is a pump out service for a fee. They do have a dump station but it is not easy or ideal to move throughout the park once parked.

    Each site had a picnic table, some had a fire ring. Some sites are full hook up, many do not have sewer at the site.

    As of 2019 this park needed a lot of upgrades to the majority of the sites, such as fire rings, new picnic tables. The sides of the road were washing out from water run off. These were things also needed in 2018.

    Amenities: Laundry Swimming Pool Dump Station Club House Pool Tables Lake Access (Lake Hartwell) Basketball Court Volleyball Playground Storage Lot Beach area Fishing

    Watson Mill Bridge State Park Campground

    Great little state park

    Real friendly staff. Nicely laid out, but I guess could be challenging for really big rigs. W & E with dump station and pretty good facilities

    Cell coverage a little challenging but managed to get enough download for Visible to stream Netflix. Too many trees to break out Starlink

    Trails are a fun walk.

    Don Carter State Park Campground

    Love the view from our site 13

    Really nice state park located at north end of Lake Lanier. Site 13 was great. Had woods and lake view. Paved pull through site with gravel pad for picnic and fire pit area. Plenty of room for camper, cars and boat trailer. Bathroom facilities were extremely clean, well lighted, no spiders or bugs, etc. Enjoyed fishing and kayaking. Nice beach and swim area, boat docks and 2 boat launch sites, playground, etc. Saw lots of deer and enjoyed walking some of the trails. Will plan a trip in cooler weather fall or spring. Camp hosts were helpful and visitor center staff were very nice. Great cell service too.

    Don Carter State Park Campground

    Nice state park close to Atlanta

    This park is one of the newest in the GA state system and it shows based on how new the facilities look. The we camped at site 10 of the walk-in camp sites. There was one bathroom facility with flush toilets, but no showers. It looked like one could use the beach showers, but they were still close for winter. Site 10 was a nice spot with a decent distance from other sites. We were there at the beginning of spring. Once the tree coverage grows back in the site would be more secluded. There are many miles of hiking trails that are interconnected so one can make the a long challenging hike if so inclined. Overall this park was a nice basic state park, but seemed to be more of a day use park for locals than a destination park like many of the other GA state parks.
