Best RV Parks & Resorts near Franklin, GA

Chattahoochee RV Park in Franklin offers 30/50 amp electric, water, and sewer hookups for RVs with year-round availability. The park features big-rig friendly sites that accommodate larger motorhomes and fifth wheels. Pine Mountain RV Resort, located about 25 miles south, provides full-hookup sites with 30/50 amp service, water, and sewer connections. "We had 30 & 50 amp electric hookups and water. The sites are large with plenty of space between neighboring sites," notes one visitor about camping in the area. R. Shaefer Heard Campground on West Point Lake features 117 water/electric sites, many with lake views, though without sewer hookups at individual sites.

Most RV parks near Franklin require reservations, particularly during spring and fall when mild temperatures attract motorhome travelers.

Shaefer Heard Campground for those without full hookup sites. Cell service varies throughout the region with better coverage at Pine Mountain and patchy reception at lakeside locations. According to reviews, many parks feature paved or level gravel pads with concrete picnic areas, though elevation changes on approach roads may require careful navigation. Pet policies differ between facilities, with most allowing leashed dogs but some restricting certain areas.

    CWGS Campground of Oxford

    Camped here with RV purchase

    Stayed at site 13, level gravel sites with picnic table on concrete pad, fire ring, FHU. Extended stays at the back of park and closer to hwy 20. There is a nice dog park, playground, covered pavilion, laundry room, dated bathroom, but clean. Shirley reserved our spot, and helped us pull through,and hook up, with our new RV! There is a little path/bridge, so We walked over to Camping World to get our bigger RV. The next morning, we had a few questions, so the Camping World service employee, came over (on a golf cart)to answer them. We decided to stay another night, and it was easy enough for Shirley to extend our reservation. If we were in the area again we would go back. There is a lot to do in the area….Talladega National Forest, Talladega SuperSpeedway and Cheaha State Park.T-Mobile was good, and paid about $30 night with Good Sam Discount. This Campground is also known as CWGS Campground of Oxford.

    3 Creeks Campground

    Quiet for the most part

    I stayed at 3 Creeks for a week as a dry run with a new Class A motorhome. The sites were not too close together, so that is a plus. A lot of full time residents, but mostly a quiet in-the-woods location. They have a mini water park, so expect some playtime noises during operation hours. Full hookups with 50 amp service and friendly hosts. Pet friendly, though most people do not clean up after their fur children.

    Upper Improved Campground — Cheaha State Park

    Great Hiking and Great views

    This park is located on the highest point in Alabama. It has a great camp store with most basic groceries, hotel, cabins/chalets, group lodge, restaurant with gorgeous views, pool, 6 acre lake ALONG with great hiking trails. There is also a dog park and in general this is a very pet friendly 🐶state park. (Bring the groceries you need- closest grocery store is a 20-30 min drive)and know that the restaurant is decent but it may have varying hours during off seasons.) . 🚍⛺️campground- there are two campgrounds with full hookups. The Upper campground at the top is the mountain near all the major trailheads, restaurant, camp store and pool. The Lower Campground at the bottom of the mountain is near the small lake with swimming area and walking trail around the lake. We stayed at the Upper and in February we had the whole campground to ourselves most of our 2 week stay. All the sites are updated and have water, 30/50 amp electric, sewer, picnic table and fire ring or grill. Bathrooms at upper level can be an uphill or downhill walk. *💲this state park has a $4.75 reservation fee and a 3.75% daily “resort fee” on your base campsite rate. Both of those are not deal breakers but good to know. (Especially since the pool is only open for a limited time)

    🏡 there are chalets and cabins. I felt the cabins had the better views than the chalet and more private but these are smaller and more rustic. When you are making reservations for a cabin or chalet be sure to check the occupancy rate for the cabin you choose- some are limited to 2 people and look👀 at the amenities of each cabin/chalet- some are quite rustic but descriptions are given. Good news is that they do have pet friendly cabins.

    🏕there are semi/primitive and backcountry style sites. ✏️Note that the semi primitive camp sites (the ones on Tower Road) don’t have a shower house for you to use- there is a bathroom available. If you plan to hike a lot and don’t want to drive your car- try to get sites on the upper part of park. (My personal pet peeve is driving daily to a trailhead when I am camping)

    📌There is also a hotel with motel like rooms (near the pool and restaurant) and you can even rent an entire lodge for groups that was very attractive from the outside (this was located at top of mountain near the overlook trail-not really walking distance to pool and restaurant)

    🥾hiking - 10.5 miles of hiking in the boundaries of the park with connectors to the Pinhoti. The hiking trails had spectacular views on both sides of the mountain. Hiking poles were helpful! While the .3 mile wooden boardwalk to Bald Rock is stroller and mobility challenged friendly, most of the other hikes were moderate to strenuous for the average person. For example- There is a one mile trail straight down the mountain to the lake and lower campground. That said, we loved the hiking here. Next time we plan to bring our larger back packs and do an overnight on a section of the Pinhoti. Did I mention how awesome the views were hiking?

    🚵 mountain biking- there are 5 trails that are multi use... and hikers must yield to bikers on these. While we were here there was a mountain biking race. 🚴‍♀️road biking- the roads in the park had some incline...but I was glad to have my bike to roam the upper part park where we camped. (We don’t bring a tow vehicle) My husband biked outside of the park and you can decide for yourself if you would have fun road biking here after you drive UP the mountain roads to the Visitor Center. *It is 3 miles from the visitor center/park entrance to the lower campground/lake area via non park roads. 🛶- we didn’t paddle here, it was not near our campground and it is only a 6 acre lake/pond. There is a swimming/wading.

    Happy Camping! Pamela and Keith

    R. Shaefer Heard Campground

    Great Lakeside Camping

    This park is located on the southern end of West Point lake near the town of West Point, GA. This is a wonderful park with 117 sites all located water front or water view, the sites are equipped with water, 30 or 50 amp electrical, table and fire ring. For this trip we stayed in site 115 which was level and paved, there was also a concrete pad with picnic table and an additional dirt and gravel tent pad area. We brought a canoe which was launched direct from our site which made this very convenient for morning and evening paddle trips. We also had bicycles, the park has good paved roads that are great for low impact bike riding.

    There was good over the air TV reception as well as Verizon cell service and LTE data coverage. There’s ample shopping for supplies within 3.5 miles of the park in the towns of West Point and LaGrange.

    The only negative for this park is the bathroom. There are two bath houses provided and several toilet only facilities, all are functional but in need of renovation. As as others have said, the park gates lock at 10:00 PM and there is no gate code to allow access after hours.

    This is a great COE park with sites that provide views seldom found, we stayed here in a 20’ travel trailer.

    Upper Improved Campground — Cheaha State Park

    Great Campground with Lots of Nature and Things to do

    On our trip to Cheaha State Park we stayed in the lower campground, which features very roomy RV sites, some with really nice views, and all with full hookups including power, water, and sewer.  There is no cable or wifi available however, and cell service is pretty spotty.  There is also an upper campground with RV sites in the park and separate tent and primitive camping sites available.

    The lower campground is right next to Cheaha Lake, which is a small lake, but large enough for some kayaking and features a sandy beach swimming area and a nice playground (see video).  There are also pavilions and picnic areas around the lake.  There is a nature center by the lake that has some interesting nature exhibits and a few live animals to check out.

    There are lots of great hiking trails, mostly toward the top of Mount Cheaha in the park itself, and there are several different overlooks with spectacular views.  The main overlook has an easy boardwalk trail that leads to it from the parking area and is wheelchair accessible.  There's also a pool, lodge, cabins, and a restaurant on the mountain in the park.

    The main road that leads to the park and campgrounds has some pretty steep and long uphill and downhill sections.  Nothing too crazy, but I would suggest that you make sure your tow vehicle can handle it without overheating the engine or transmission, especially in the heat of the summer.

    Upper Improved Campground — Cheaha State Park

    Nice pull through

    Narrow twisting roads lead to the lower level camping area, nice pull through, wish there was more information about local attractions. We stayed 3 nights very quiet camp site. I appreciate the improvements in the Campground. Everyone we encountered was very nice and friendly. No cell service or wifi at the lower campground but good service at the upper areas.

    Little Tallapoosa Park

    Nice county park

    Nice big spaced out spots, that offer full hook ups. Friendly staff, good hiking trails, creeks for kids to play in. Pull through and back in paved sites. They also offer tent sites.

    Cons - have to call to book, weekend campers destroyed bathhouses, and lack of cleaning crew


Guide to Franklin

RV campgrounds near Franklin, Georgia offer year-round accommodations for various camping preferences. The area sits along the Chattahoochee River and maintains moderate temperatures through most seasons, with summer highs around 90°F and winter lows rarely dropping below freezing. Many campgrounds in this western Georgia region feature gravel pads and provide access to numerous outdoor activities within a 30-mile radius.

What to do

Kayaking on the Tallapoosa River: Just 35 miles from Franklin, Tallapoosa River RV and Outdoor Center offers direct river access for paddling enthusiasts. "We loved it. Sites are right on the water and well cleared and maintained," notes a camper named Sam O. The river features mostly calm waters suitable for beginners and families.

Visit FDR State Park: Located about 20 miles south of Franklin near Pine Mountain RV Resort, this historic park offers hiking trails ranging from 0.75 to 7 miles in length. "Very close to Calloway Gardens, FDR State Park, and Animal Safari!" reports camper Cari P. The park preserves historical sites connected to President Roosevelt and provides panoramic mountain views.

Pick seasonal fruits: For a unique activity during spring months, visit Lone Oak RV Flower Farm where camping sites are nestled among pecan trees. According to Ashley F., "Visit in the month of April & May so you can pick strawberries & blueberries." The farm allows self-contained RVs and campers to stay on property while enjoying agricultural tourism.

What campers like

Clean bathhouse facilities: Campers consistently mention well-maintained facilities at several campgrounds. At Ramsey RV Park, a visitor notes, "Bath house - dated but clean. Laundry facilities." This family-owned park in nearby Warm Springs maintains salt water swimming pools and gathering areas with BBQ grills.

Pool amenities during summer: Many visitors appreciate swimming options during Georgia's warm months. According to Aaron C., Pine Mountain RV Resort "has a great pool area. The pool area has a kids pool and hot tub along with the regular inground pool." These facilities help campers cool off when temperatures climb into the upper 80s.

Spacious camping sites: RVers value the extra room provided at certain parks. "The sites were super close to each other. Our picnic table was right next to the neighbors sewage," reports one camper about a less satisfactory experience, highlighting why well-spaced sites matter to visitors in the area.

What you should know

Seasonal camping considerations: Weather patterns affect camping experiences throughout the year. Summer temperatures can exceed 90°F with high humidity from June through August, while spring (March-May) brings moderate temperatures and occasional thunderstorms.

Reservation requirements vary: Most parks near Franklin require advance booking, especially during peak spring and fall seasons. Some parks handle reservations through online systems while others require phone calls or in-person visits.

Long-term vs. overnight options: Many RV parks in the region cater to different stay durations. At Cane Creek RV Park, "My family stayed here for a few months while my husband worked in the area. The new ownership is spot-on what you would hope for!" explains Jason B., highlighting options for extended stays. For overnight travelers, several parks offer pull-through sites with easier access.

Tips for camping with families

Look for dedicated kid-friendly areas: Hunter K. recommends Pine Mountain's premium sites, noting, "While it was one of the more expensive sites in the park it was well worth it. We ended up spending more time sitting and watching them just play in the grass than we really thought." Sites with open play areas provide entertainment value for children.

Check for nearby attractions: Multiple area campgrounds provide convenient access to local activities. Within 20 miles of Franklin, families can visit animal attractions, historic sites, and natural areas. "Located very close to convenience stores and grocery stores as well," mentions Dixie H. about another nearby RV park.

Confirm pet policies: Rules regarding pets vary significantly between facilities. Most allow leashed dogs in camping areas but restrict them from buildings, pools, and certain common areas. Always verify pet regulations before booking.

Tips from RVers

Evaluate site levelness: Many RV parks in the region feature gravel pads that may require leveling equipment. "Gravel lot and level. Nice campground with amenities for kids," notes Noel L. about Tallapoosa River RV and Outdoor Center, highlighting the importance of site preparation.

Check electric service capacity: Several reviewers mention electrical service limitations. "30 amp circuit was not adequate. The breaker continually tripped while using small kitchen appliances," reports Brittany about one campground, suggesting travelers with larger power requirements should confirm amperage options before arrival.

Verify water connections: Water systems and pressure vary between campgrounds. Some facilities provide filtered water while others may have mineral content or low pressure. Carrying water pressure regulators and filters is recommended for RV travelers visiting Franklin area campgrounds.
