John C. Campbell Folk School Campground
I'm excited about visiting this place and being secluded by all the greenery and enjoying the sound of silence… I heard it was a wonderful place to visit and stay!
32 campgrounds with availability this weekend
Several RV campgrounds surround Lula, Georgia, offering varied options for motorhome travelers with full hookups, big-rig access, and year-round availability. Currahee RV Park in nearby Toccoa offers year-round camping with full hookups including 50-amp service, and accommodates big rigs with pull-through sites. Just south in Commerce, Georgia RV Park features big-rig friendly sites with 50-amp electric, water, and sewer connections, though fires are not permitted. Toccoa RV Park maintains 28 full-hookup sites with both 30-amp and 50-amp service options, operating year-round with gravel pads and picnic tables at each site. Willow Valley RV Resort in Rabun Gap provides 81 sites specifically designed for RVs with full hookups and big-rig access. As one camper noted, "The site was amazing... Power, Electric, gray water dumps near each site."
Navigation to mountain RV parks requires careful planning as some areas feature tight turns and elevation changes. Cell service varies significantly throughout the region - most parks near Lula report good Verizon coverage, but service can be spotty in more remote locations. Dump stations are available at most parks, with Currahee and Toccoa RV Parks offering on-site sanitary dump facilities. Pet policies are generally accommodating, with designated pet areas at several locations. During peak fall foliage season, advance reservations become essential as RV sites fill quickly. Some parks have limited seasonal availability for certain amenities. Propane fill stations can be found at select locations, though not universally available. One RV owner mentioned, "We had concerns about damaging the pop-up roof during first-time setup," highlighting the importance of checking site dimensions when making reservations.
"We found this place when our other place to stay fell through and we Googled 'campgrounds near me . We called them and they gladly told us that there were spots available. "
"The scenery is gorgeous, the spots are huge and the peace and quiet is priceless! If you are anywhere near Taccoa, Ga you HAVE to stop here. No excuses! Oh and get site 17 if you can."
"Clean pet friendly park with very nice, helpful and funny staff. New sod in between the large gravel sites. Bigger park than I expected."
"Overnight stay in a off level pull-through site. The bathrooms are extremely nice and the dogs liked the walking area."
from $68 - $83 / night
"All of their RV rentals are stored inside River Vista RV resort and kept up and in good condition, so they can offer experiences of a lifetime."
"Amazing campground, quiet but close to sights. Staff is 5 stars and super flexible if you communicate with them. Would definitely stay here again."
"Great little campground just minutes from Helen GA.. Super clean and quiet, ADULTS ONLY. Full hook ups, bath house and laundry room."
from $39 - $89 / night
"We are under a WiFi pole and have good signal and usable internet. It was actually worth paying for. There is a boat launch but, it is hard to get to and down a large, steep incline."
"There was trash in our fire ring and the picnic table at our site should probably be put out of its misery."
"Clean nearby lake, perfect for kayaking, paddle boarding, and boating. Plus it’s near the wonderful Toccoa waterfall."
"Luckily they had one full hookup site left for us. You can book sites daily or monthly. When you’re heading to the campsite be cautious of the road you need to turn at because they don’t have a sign."
"Site Quality: We chose a Super-Premium Site (the same price on the Dyrt as the other sites so why not?) but I was surprised to find out our camper pad was gravel and not paved."
"Very well taken care of and conveniently located to Clayton, GA and Dillard. The amenities are wonderful, one being that the pool is heated!"
from $59 - $89 / night
from $15 / night
I'm excited about visiting this place and being secluded by all the greenery and enjoying the sound of silence… I heard it was a wonderful place to visit and stay!
It is a beautiful campground and very friendly. The sites are spacious and it is was a great time with my family and my truck camper.
I love this run down old campground. They are slowly fixing up the amenities, but the sites probably haven’t been fixed up in decades. That’s honestly the charm of itv
Sites are not level. Thousand trails is currently not investing. Any money in improving the sites. Half of the sites in the park are going back to nature. The roads are falling apart and the inclines are not big rig friendly.
Whatever person or group of persons designed the campground were clueless as to how to develop a campground. Sites are packed in the most preposterous configuration to have tents, trailers motorhomes all jammed together nearly touching each other with zero privacy. Come for the hikes and views of the gorge but come with the lowest expectations for the campground and you’ll be fine
A sign on the gate says that the area has been closed "due to vandalism and unauthorized activity".
Walk to trail sites, clean bathrooms, sites close together…water and electric at site. Sites are sloped gravel.
Welcome center is nice, but the roads and asphalt sites are crumbling. We had a back in site that was fairly level. No real privacy from neighboring sites.
Water was very low and poor quality. Host was friendly but don’t buy his wood - it doesn’t burn well. County water tasted funny, probably minimal treatment. We had quite a hike to the restroom, which wasn’t regularly cleaned.

Hiking access: Currahee Mountain trails near Currahee RV Park provide moderate to challenging terrain with significant elevation gains.

Varied site conditions: Site quality varies significantly between campgrounds and within the same park. At Twin Lakes RV Park, one camper noted, "The pictures online and YouTube videos of this park are very deceiving. The grassy areas beside and between the lakes can only be accessed by walking though other camper's sites."
Reservation windows: Fall foliage season creates high demand for RV sites throughout northeast Georgia. At Currahee RV Park, Derick B. recommends specific sites: "If you are anywhere near Taccoa, Ga you HAVE to stop here. No excuses! Oh and get site 17 if you can. It's the most secluded spot and has river access and a balcony."

Site challenges: RV campers should research site dimensions and grades before arrival. At Carolina Landing RV Resort, Becky P. warns, "Our site- A5- was super unlevel. I felt unsafe with our fifth wheel's two left tires up in the air after auto-leveling. That was a first for us, and hope we never have to do that again."
Hookup variations: RV sites offer different utility connections throughout the region. Twin Lakes RV Park has "some sewer sites, dump station cost an extra $10 on top of $50 fee. No other amenities to speak of," according to Anthony B.
Navigation considerations: Mountain terrain creates challenging driving conditions. At Carolina Landing, Laura H. advises, "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."
