    Paradise Meadows

    Enjoy comfort, luxury, and great hospitality in a small space

    The Tiny House is one of several rental options on this property. (Others include a huge glamping tent and a farmhouse). This review focuses on the tiny house where we stayed for two nights but I have included a few photos of the glamping tent, which was not open when we were there (opens in April). 

    A lot is packed into a small space with so many creative touches. There is a full-size loft bed and a pull-out couch so while you could sleep four people, it would be a bit crowded inside. There is also a screened-in porch with two swing seats, and a table so you could eat outside. 

    Lyn (the owner)’s hospitality is second to none. The tiny house is stocked with a microwave, toaster oven, electric kettle, Keurig, and an induction burner plus dishes, flatware, and just about everything else you would expect in a fully stocked kitchen. There is also a table grill that can be set up on the table on the screened porch. There is a great selection of tea and hot chocolate plus pancake mix, and syrup. 

    There is a full bath with a flush toilet, sink, and shower with fluffy towels. 

    There is a fire pit available to use. 

    This would make a wonderful couples retreat, a mother-daughter getaway, or a place for solo reflection. Chattanooga is located just 25 minutes away and there is a fully stocked gourmet grocery store just down the road.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Go to the website for more information on this and other options at this property.

    North Sungate Farms Treehouse Glamping

    Peaceful, private Creekside gem...

    Fun and relaxing creekside Glamping treehouse, there's plenty of space for a few tents as well. The creek is cool and refreshing to enjoy rock hunting. Large fire pit and grill to make our dinner. We stargazed on one if the clear nights, looked like the planetarium! When we went to sleep we we're comfortable in the Air-conditioned beautifully decorated treehouse. Lots of fun places to go within 20 minutes in any direction... really centrally located in the foothills of the Smoky Mountains!

    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.

    Fort Mountain State Park Campground

    Way, way, way up

    Ft Mountain State Park off I75 Dalton, Ga. A bit of a drive through the interesting,,scenic Georgia countryside. Situated between Chatsworth and Ellijay, I don't think Georgia believes in gaurdrails. The drive up from Chatsworth was a blast, if you love roads that turn and swerve and give you some awesome views. On the way out I took the route through Ellijay, this is where the population built their residences. In the town of Ellijay you will find some antique shops and other varied small businesses, a good break from nature if your in the area for a bit.

    The reason for the 3 star is I was not impressed by the staff. One of the Park Attendants was very nice and approachable. The other three younger employees were rude and too busy to look up from their phones to say hi.

    Otherwise I totally enjoyed my visit. Check your reservation and preference. The campsites are named appropriately, you can have easy access to the lake from one camping area and more privacy in the other. Both have trail access.

    Facilities were okay and maintained. The campsites were a little close and stacked around each other throughout the woods. I would pick an outer site if you have the option. Gravel pads, picnic table and fire ring included.

    The lake loop was gravel , Blu was not happy and it would not be stroller friendly(to me run off into the lake would be an issue). Water craft rental , nice beach and crafts, plus bilingual signage.

    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

    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!

    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.


Guide to Chatsworth

Fort Mountain State Park offers elevated camping experiences in Georgia's mountains at 3,000 feet elevation. Visitors can choose from traditional campsites or specialty accommodations while exploring the area's diverse ecosystem and historical sites. The park sits adjacent to the Cohutta Wilderness, one of the largest wilderness areas in the eastern United States.

What to do

Waterfall hunting: 5 miles from campground. At Cloudland Canyon State Park, visitors can hike to several spectacular cascades. According to one camper, "The trails are what really makes this an all-around great campground. Several hikes for all levels. We did the Benton Falls hike and it was lovely! 3 miles RT. Fall color was just peaking."

River rafting: 30-minute drive. The Ocoee River provides world-class whitewater adventures near Adventures Unlimited Campground. A visitor noted, "The Ocoee River was the site for the 1996 Olympics whitewater events. There are numerous outfitters for everything you can do on the river, and this place is the best we've visited."

Backcountry camping: Cohutta Wilderness. For those seeking solitude, the Hickory Creek and Conasauga River Intersection Backcountry Campground offers primitive sites. "This particular campsite was a really great spot for group trips. There are many large campgrounds and it is right on a large river so there is plenty of water to purify and drink."

What campers like

Wildlife encounters: Fort Mountain campers regularly spot native wildlife. One visitor reported, "For our camping group, this place was amazing. We had bear visitors, something they'll warn you about upon arrival. The bears just added to the appeal of this place though."

Platform camping: Unique tent experience. Fort Mountain offers raised camping platforms. A camper explained, "I'll be honest. 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."

Lake activities: Swimming and fishing. Woodring Campground at Carters Lake provides water recreation options. A visitor mentioned, "Carters Lake is a great deep lake, clean and private. Bring your kayaks cause y'all wanna explore the lake plenty of little swimming holes."

What you should know

Bear activity: Common in area. Multiple campgrounds report bear sightings. A Fort Mountain camper stated, "Two other couples at two separate platform sites had encounters with a bear the same weekend I was here. Needless to say, I did it! I slept outside of a tent!"

Elevation challenges: Some steep roads. Amicalola Falls State Park has significant elevation changes. "I read a lot before my trip, so I knew to expect the 25% grade incline going up to the campground. I wasn't however expecting the challenging parking in the campsite."

Campsite selection: Varies widely. At Cloudland Canyon, site differences matter. "The East Rim campground is the thing of nightmares - sites on top of each other, no vegetation, no trees, right next to road, zero privacy, but next to outlooks. The West Rim campground is VASTLY superior with tons of privacy, tree cover, great terraces."

Tips for camping with families

Hot weather strategies: Lake options. For summer trips, Chester Frost Park offers cooling alternatives. "This place is definitely somewhere you wanna bring your kids they would love it! There is a man made beach with a playground and loads of camping lots next to the river!"

Insect awareness: Seasonal concerns. Be prepared for bugs, especially in summer months. One camper at Chilhowee Recreation Area advised, "The one downside is that the site can be particularly buggy certain times of year since it is right on the water. I would highly suggest checking out this area when the leaves are changing in the fall."

Glamping near Chatsworth, Georgia: Comfort options. For families wanting luxury camping near Chatsworth, several parks offer glamping alternatives to traditional tent sites. At Cloudland Canyon, "The yurts 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 leveling: Check ahead. Some sites require equipment for leveling. One RVer at Fort Mountain noted, "The site had about a 5 inch difference sloping towards the road. I used rocker blocks maxed out (about 4 inches in height) and still was not level."

Road navigation: Some challenging access. Many glamping destinations around Chatsworth have steep roads. An RVer at Chilhowee Recreation Area warned, "Coming up the mountain has some steep grades and a few switch backs that you can't see around. There are often oncoming vehicles who are often driving to fast and not considering those of us in large vehicles."

Dump station access: Plan accordingly. Some parks have limited facilities. As one Chilhowee camper explained, "There is only one dump station and it's on the other side of the campground. 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."
