Located Northwest of Macon and great for camping near Atlanta, High Falls State Park is named for tumbling cascades on the Towaliga River. Boat rental, ramps and fishing docks provide easy access to the park’s lake, known as one of Georgia’s top fishing spots for hybrid and white bass. Overnight visitors can choose from a spacious campground or lakeside yurts, which are like canvas and wood tents. Each yurt features a small deck, picnic table and grill outside, plus furniture, electrical outlets and a ceiling fan inside. During summer, guests may cool off in the park’s swimming pool.
Visitors can hike along the river’s edge and through hilly forest to the remains of a hydroelectric power plant foundation. In the early 1800s, this area was a prosperous industrial town with several stores, a grist mill, cotton gin, blacksmith shop, shoe factory and hotel. High Falls fell from prosperity in the 1880s when a major railroad bypassed it. Today, the park is a popular camping destination and a relaxing side trip for travelers on I-75.

Sweetwater Creek State Park is a peaceful tract of wilderness only minutes from downtown Atlanta. A wooded trail follows the stream to the ruins of the New Manchester Manufacturing Company, a textile mill burned during the Civil War. Beyond the mill, the trail climbs rocky bluffs to provide views of the beautiful rapids below. Additional trails wind through fields and forest, showcasing ferns, magnolias, wild azaleas and hardwoods. Park rangers lead informative hikes to these areas throughout the year.
At 9,049 acres, Georgia's largest state park is a hiker's and backpacker's haven. Many visitors are surprised to find rolling mountains 80 miles southeast of Atlanta. Above King's Gap is Dowdell's Knob where President Franklin D. Roosevelt sometimes picnicked and pondered world affairs. A life-size sculpture of the president now welcomes visitors to the overlook.
Several park amenities were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps during the Great Depression, including cottages and the Liberty Bell Swimming Pool fed by cool springs. A wooded campground sits near the edge of a small fishing lake, and privately operated stables offer guided horseback rides. In 1921, FDR came to this part of Georgia to swim in naturally warm springs that offered relief from polio. Today, nearby Roosevelt's Little White House Historic Site invites visitors to see his modest home, a museum and the pools that first drew him here.

The Space
One with Nature is hidden in the heart of East Point, GA on the grounds of an repurposed industrial factory by the Atlanta rail system. This city is currently undergoing a $111 million dollar downtown transformation, which is only a 5-minute walk from the property.
Our operation is located on at the same location of the *New* Atlanta Utility Works. This mixed use area will encompass a hard kombucha Brewery brought to you by the mastermind of Cultured South Fermentation Co., Food Truck Kitchen (Coming Soon), Farm-to-Table Garden, and the Foundry Ruins (Wedding Venue - Coming Soon).
This property has some jaw dropping photo opportunities from the gentle passing of the train to the ceiling exposed atrium of the Foundry Ruins and the street art which compliments the surrounding structures.
This Glamp Camp is a mere 5-minutes from public transportation and downtown East Point. Its 10-minutes from the airport, so out-of-town guests are welcome to experience luxury glamping. Not to mention this location is close to the delectable eats of College Park, the bright lights of Tyler Perry Studios and beautiful parks.
This is one of the most convenient ways to experience glamping, because you are able to disconnect at the site, have access to all city amenities and no long excessive commute to property.
Other things to note:
Bathroom - Please expect to handle your business in nature. There is an outdoor restroom near camp with running water and composting toilet. We also have numerous port-a-potties on site with one dedicated for the use of glampers. Currently, our indoor restroom facility including shower is still under construction. We will keep you posted on progress.
We also provide adult sized personal sanitary wipes in the tents for your convenience.
Light Sleepers - There is a train that gently passes the property throughout the day. It never sounds the horn near the campsite and stops running at night. I find it to be rather relaxing and it makes for a good photo opportunity!
$79 - $199 / night

Stay with us for memories that last a lifetime!

We really enjoyed staying at High Falls. Most of the RV sites were spaced well apart and the amenities were clean.
We just bought our first RV and it was a 22 foot Class C. We decided to stay close to home to try it out, learn everything on it in a forgiving place. Chattahoochee Bend was perfect. Drive through spot for our RV with 50AMP, 30AMP, water and dump service. The place is clean, quiet and in great shape! Electric bikes made it all the more fun, since the single road in, out and all about is quite hilly. Plenty of hiking trails!
Tons of things to do train rides, gondola ride to the top, hiking and fireworks. Stayed in a safari tent a little worn down with duck tape on the screen. However, clean bathroom/showers and fun pool. A couple of crazy squirrels visit us every morning.
We had some flubs with this campground. We put the wrong address in our GPS resulting in us arriving too late to use the pool. Then we neglected to pick up our paperwork and had to drive back to the main building to get it and we drove past the campground host on duty so we didn’t get firewood. Our campsite was pretty: flat, spacious, shaded with trees, but it was frustrating to drive past the even prettier spots right on the lake and realize that’s what I should have booked!! Several people were out enjoying evening fishing as we drove past to our more woodsy loop.
We were here all of 12 hours - it was a nice stopover on our route further south. Really quiet and absolutely spotless bathhouse! I really was bummed about not getting to the pool (it was not open the next day) - we will come back!
I am getting back into camping for the first time in a very long time. Went to FDR State Park because it’s only about 30 minutes from home. Booking site 111 was easily done online. I arrived after the office had closed but my reservation sheet with instructions was left in a box on the door for me to pick up. Great park with nice lake for fishing, kayaking, paddle boating as well many hiking trails. Bathrooms were clean and well maintained. Visited Dowdell’s Knob which gives a fantastic view…no wonder it was FDR’s favorite picnicking site when visiting Warm Springs. I would definitely recommend and will be back, but next time will be spring or fall because summer was just too hot.
Stayed in the 500 series camping area prior to Memorial Day Weekend for two nights. The staff at check in were extremely friendly and helpful. All camping/RV spots in 500 series were well spaced, the ones nearest the lake seem a little more congested. Easy to navigate with my Solis, but a large Class A or trailer would be challenging. The bathroom/shower facilities were some of the cleanest, well kept I’ve ever seen. Hiked to Cascade Falls with my wife and our two dogs (2 miles in/2 miles out). Will definitely go back.
The park was quiet and clean. Bathroom and bath house area kept very clean with plenty of HOT water. Site 26 is a pull through with kinda odd connection placement but we made it work.
Beautiful park with lots of activities available for the whole family. The park is well maintained and clean!

I love this campground. Sites are usually clean and staff are friendly. This is my second time camping here. I come for the Highland Games here. Sites are close so it would not benefit you if you want seclusion. Bathrooms are clean. And in October there are different activities for the kids. Fall fest and Halloween parade.
We loved this campground! Definitely one of our favorites. The campsites are spacious and private. The amenities are all close by and were super clean the entire time we were there. The playground is more geared toward older children, but it was very well taken care of.
Our campground hosts at the time (Dennis and Colleen) were so welcoming and friendly. They were always quick to offer a wave and friendly smile every time we saw them. Lisa, the maintenance host, was also fantastic! We enjoyed getting to know all 3 of them.
The hiking trails are all very clearly marked, and we enjoyed exploring during our time there.
The closest town is about a 45 min drive, but we didn’t mind at all. Just make sure to stock up before heading to the park.
We can’t wait to visit this park again. So far it is one of our favorites!

I love the amenities
We camped over the Labor Day weekend. The park was a little pricey but the lake is nice. There is a pool, a playground & a gathering area. There are a lot of sites as well as Yurts. On top of the $70 a night you must pay a $20 parking fee. The full use of the state park is $39.95 a day.
We had so much fun we spent the whole weekend at hard labor creek at park camping and swimming at the beach it was very convenient the restrooms and showers were near the campsite so it wasn't a long walk. Def will be going back
Easy booking, check in, and hook up to electric and water. Beautiful, serene surroundings. We didn’t get to do all the fun stuff available like the pool and the hiking trail since it was just an overnight stop but we will be back.
We just stopped in for a quick one night visit on our travel north. Check in was quick and easy. Sites are not large but adequate, cute playground and a double dump station available. There is very little cell phone service- AT&T has none.
Meh I have mixed feelings for hard labor. This is actually my first time camping at their campground. I did find the camp area pretty nice. I did have concerns about some of the trees as I recall last year they camp host had an incident. My issue for me was I used a ground tent this time versus my roof top tent or camper. Man my site choice was horrible! Site 24 turned into a pool. I had to move my tent to RV vehicle parking area. I did consider trenching the site but didn’t want to cause property damage with the rail road ties. Other than the flooding of my site and making adjustments not a bad experience. Just noticed a lot of water issues throughout the park and runoff.
We were only there 1 night and came in late, but beautiful location with a lake view. They have a 2 night min, but you can pay for 1 night. However, you need to do it by cash only. There is no way to pay w a cc or leave a cc number for them to charge. Also, be ready to pay an additional $20 fee to enter the park. So, at the min rate of $45 you’re still at $65 at least for the first night.
The fireworks were very loud, but it didn’t bother us. There’s also train noise. So, if you’re sensitive to that, prob not the bet choice for you. But this park is gorgeous with a golf course and lots to see if you can handle that :)
Got a last minute site next to the water. The peninsula we were on was tight turnaround for any big rig. Bathhouse was nice!
We visited this campground April 23rd and stayed for 2 nights. Campground is very clean and peaceful. We dragged our feet on booking so ended up with limited sites to choose from. Site 49, still a great site just not as private as some of the sites on roundabouts.
Site 49 has a slightly mild downhill walk about 30 yards to get to the edge of the water. Not really an area you would jump in and swim at though, stagnant water in the corner. We used it for setting up our hammocks and used it for the view of the lake.
There is also a small old town right outside the campground with a small ice cream place / museum and old market with minimum things in a pinch.
There was also another campsite within 10-15 minutes of Indian Springs and they had a trail you could walk along the waterfalls and river.
We had a wonderful spring break visit in March 2023. We stayed in, according to the map, red#279. Please go by camp site number when there though. It was a little confusing when we arrived as the signs had changed. It is a number range now. The site needed the leaves removed but it didn't stop us. We fit the site, it was a little snug but we loved it!!! The view was fantastic and just what I was looking for! I know they have been making some improvements and hope they get to the inner side of the circles soon. I would love to go back to this area again. I would suggest an outside rug to keep from taking everything in. It was amazing to have!!! I would stay in this area again anytime!
The primitive sites (for tents) were a bit close and not as private as I like.
They offer platform camping and those sites seem a bit more secluded (and are in a separate area from the tent sites).
There are 4 cabins available to reserve and they have great amenities (running water, electricity)
We looked at them once there and think next time we will do this with the kids.
2 rangers live in the park full time and there is a large welcome center/ gift shop with basics for sale should you forget anything.
Been here 3 times so far. Small. Beautiful campground.
Booked a couple of adjacent sites to explore the area with friends. The State Park is very well maintained, sites offered enough privacy, bathhouse was very clean, and the weather couldn’t have been better. Visited the Little White House State Historic site and enjoyed the Wild Safari and some good B-B-Q.
Not much to say about it pretty much all the sites around the lake area the same in Hall county Gwinnett it was very peaceful nice people was able to find plenty of outdoor stuff to do hope other people enjoy it too
The park is gorgeous and well maintained. It’s a little tight in a place or two but we’re pulling a 40’ fifth wheel and had no problems. We stayed in spot 71 which was a pull through with large lot that was really nice. Fire pit, picnic table and grill as well. I’m uploading a set of maps. You definitely need them as the sites are marked nicely but the areas are not and it’s very confusing. Also if you use maps on a device make sure you add campground because there are a few other places you don’t want to go pulling a rig since the campground is in a state park. Great for hiking, biking, fishing etc. Plain on zero internet or cell coverage. I’m all about the camping adventure but I like to be able to contact the kids if needed. Overall great place.
Banning Mills has 2 parks. 1 that central based are ziplines..90 of them. Great place for the kids or adults who are still kids... Then there's the camp grounds that's about a mile down the road. Very impressive. 1st thing you'll notice is the key card you get at the main office. It opens up these huge Gothic iorn gates. If you don't have a key your not driving in. All the campsites are set back in the woods at different elevations and really cool. It took us about 6 months to get in here. Long waiting list. The rent was $500 a month for a 50amp spot. They have pools and hiking and fishing and zip lines and the tallest man made rock climbing wall...over 100ft tall. They have paddle boats, canoes, fish, snakes, mosquitoes... All.n.all great place. We went during the height of covid 19 so the morning buffet they have was diminished to a plate of food. Cool place.
Nice spot. Trails are nice. If you arrive after hours, look up instructions for check in beforehand. Sites are pretty private. Quiet. Clean bathrooms.
