    Fort Yargo State Park Campground

    Relaxation in The Woods

    Fort Yargo is in the Winder Ga area and is close to Helen, Jefferson, Athens and Atlanta. Entering the campground is a nice paved road and leads to tent camping, cabins, yurts and RV sites.

    Very clean park and has Historical area, playground, tennis court, bike and hike trails. Not to mention beach and boating area.

    Picnics, camping, boating biking and camping or just day use areas. Pet friendly and all around great park.

    There is a small general store, but you are so close to everything if you need it, it's there.

    Gread for the Georgia Bulldog crowd as its less then 30 minutes!

    I recommend this park highly.

    Vogel State Park Campground

    Beautiful State Park

    Beautiful State Park with roomy shaded sites, many of which are creekside. A large lake for fishing and swimming is at the front of the park and it offers canoe and paddle boat rentals. Lots to do on-site such as walking trails, hiking and fishing, playgrounds and a Conservation Corps museum. Trahlyta Falls is an easy walking path, and the park also offers nice cabin rentals. There are no sewer hook-up, but it does have an easy access dump station.

    Red Top Mountain State Park Campground

    First time visiting & it won’t be our last

    We’ve been wanting to camp here for a while, but every time we decided to go, it’s been all booked up.... that might have been our fault though, because we like to plan last min trips. 🙂 This time we actually planned it out a few weeks in advance and got a nice spot.

    I really liked the booking process, because it shows you exactly what spot is available and it even shows you a pic of the site you’ll be getting. Our site was only $35 a night + a $5 parking pass.

    The campground has a lot to offer! It has a boat access point, fishing, walking and biking trails, a small putt putt course, playground area for the kids and best of all it’s pet friendly! I can’t go without saying the employees are so friendly and helpful!

    Campsite wise, it has electric, water, cable, a huge picnic table & a grill/fire pit. The only negative was it wasn’t a full hookup. 😔Something else that I really loved was all of the huge natural rocks located all throughout the campground. Each campsite seemed to have their own collection of rocks and it really added to the experience. Another plus is that it has a dump station right at the exit, so on your way out you can take care of your last minute steps to finish up your camping experience. 😁

    If you’re in the area I would highly recommend this campground! You can’t go wrong!

    Vogel State Park Campground

    Beautiful hiking, large campsites

    We enjoyed a challenging 11-mile hike up and over 3 mountains from trail heads inside the park. There are shorter hikes that start here as well. My 9-year old loved exploring the mushrooms and nature growing in the very wooded campsites. The campsites are large with driveways, 1-2 tent pads, picnic table, fire ring and lantern poles at each site. The campground was very busy and you could see your neighbors around you. But this also means there are more conveniences like running water and hot showers. The campground also has a mini-gold course, lake and gift shop. There were lots of kids riding bikes and dogs are allowed, so while this so not a serene site, it's definitely great for families and groups that want to hang out!

    Two Wheels of Suchess

    Great Motorcycle Only campground

    Two Wheels of Suchess campground is one of the best motorcycle campgrounds I've stayed at. Open tent areas, trees for hammock camping, cabins and a bunk house are also available. Meals are available Friday night through Sunday morning, as well as breakfast on Monday morning. Fire wood and ice available 24 hours. The paved parking lot in front of the main lodge is for motorcycles only, however there is a gravel parking lot for 4 wheel vehicles. The campground and cabin areas are accessable via a bridge that is purposely not wide enough for a car to cross, but Motorcycles an trikes can. The facilities are kept in top-notch shape. Showers were spotless the 4 days I spent there. Lots of awesome roads in the area available to ride. Inside the lodge is the restaurant and an area to lounge with a fire place, big screen TV, couch, recliners and hundreds of motorcycle magazines to read. A stream runs through part of the tent camping area and next to the parking lot by the lodge.

    Fort Mountain State Park Campground

    Memorial Day Weekend was Awesome..

    We spent Memorial Day weekend at Fort Mountain and it was awesome. We camped in a Pioneer campsite #2 which is a 3 sided pavilion that would easily sleep 8-10 people if you were only using bed rolls and sleeping bags. Pioneer camping has its challenges, but each site has an outhouse and a picnic table and prebuilt fire ring. There is an original fire tower on top of the mountain at the end of the trail. A Great Lake for kayaks and fishing with Jon boats, paddle boats, and canoes avaialble for rentals. Lots of cool lake side tent sites and trailer sites are also avaialble. We have camped several times with our scout troop. Lots of cool trails surround the park. There were fireworks in neighboring towns a short,15 min drive both nights. The towns near by have stores and food if your not I the mood to cook. The history is well documented on displays all around the park. And the there is a station that broadcasts at the end of one of the public service roads.

    Vogel State Park Campground

    Perfect for Families & Groups

    While it’s often a bit of a shock to come to such a developed and highly manicured campground after having spent some time in the woods without all the amenities, it sure was nice to get a hot shower in a heated bathroom! Vogel State Park was perfectly situated along Hwy 19 in the north Georgia mountains for an easy spot for the night.

    In early March, this state park was extremely quiet, especially in the loop designed specifically for tents, vans, and small rigs like ours. Each site has been lined with fresh gravel, a firepit, picnic table, utility pole, electricity and water. A few of the sites are pull-through and some are conjoined with another site, making it a perfect place for families/groups wanting to have close-by sites. Throughout the park, there are plenty of sites for large RV’s, as well as some walk-in sites for tents.

    The bathrooms are clean, with wheelchair accessibility in one shower and toilet, but the one near our site doesn’t have a wheelchair ramp to the bathroom itself. 

    In addition to the campsites, this park offers a small lake, hiking trails, playgrounds, miniature golf, and some modern, fully-equipped cabins complete with a small deck, grill, and picnic table.  The closest town is Blairsville, GA, about a 10 mile drive with most of the basics you need.


Guide to Milton

Cabin camping near Milton, Georgia offers overnight options ranging from rustic to modern accommodations within a 40-mile radius. The area sits at the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains with elevations ranging from 950 to 3,000 feet in nearby parks. Winter temperatures can drop below freezing at higher elevations, while summer camping often requires air conditioning due to Georgia's humidity and 90°F+ temperatures.

What to do

Hiking at multiple skill levels: Fort Yargo State Park offers trails for beginners and intermediates, with a 12-mile perimeter trail around the 260-acre lake. A visitor noted, "The hiking trails are nice and there is a nice lake at the parking lot."

Fishing and boating: Marina Resort - Allatoona Landing provides direct lake access for fishing and boating activities. One camper shared, "Great campground with everything you need! Beautiful views!!"

Historical exploration: Visit the CCC-built fire tower at Fort Mountain State Park to learn about depression-era conservation work. A visitor wrote, "The fire tower is a vision..To think that young men came and worked and set every stone step you walk on to get to see the tower is an amazing feat of engineering."

Swimming and beach activities: Several parks offer swimming areas during summer months. At Don Carter State Park, "There is a playground and a beach area, which was not open when we were there."

What campers like

Cabin variety: Vogel State Park Campground offers different cabin styles from efficiency to 3-bedroom options. A visitor commented, "Loved hiking here and the cabins are awesome."

Proximity to Atlanta: Several campgrounds provide cabin accommodations within an hour of the city. At Stone Mountain Park Campground, a reviewer noted it's "Close to City, surprisingly quiet" and "Good for a quick get away while still having access to 'city life'."

Fall and winter camping: Many cabin options remain open year-round. One visitor at Don Carter State Park mentioned, "Very quite and easy to utilize all amenities. Nice having grey tank connection at the sites. Will be back."

Platform camping alternatives: For those seeking a hybrid cabin experience, Fort Mountain offers elevated platform sites. A visitor described, "We would definitely return, and stay in either one of the platform sites again (my husband in particular loved that we did not have to worry about a tent!)."

What you should know

Reservation timing: Summer weekends book 3-6 months in advance at most parks. Midweek availability is generally better year-round.

Train noise: Several campgrounds experience railroad sounds. At Marina Resort, a visitor warned, "Notice - the campground entrance is located between 2 railroad crossings and each have low ground clearance and located in turns."

Variable Wi-Fi: Most cabin locations have inconsistent internet access. At Amicalola Falls State Park Camping, connectivity is best near the visitor center.

Steep terrain: Many parks feature significant elevation changes. One camper noted about Fort Mountain, "Remember, there are a lot of hills here so expect this when walking to bathouses from most campsites."

Wildlife encounters: Bear activity requires proper food storage. "Two other couples at two separate platform sites had encounters with a bear the same weekend I was here," reported one Fort Mountain visitor.

Tips for camping with families

Playground access: Several parks have dedicated play areas. At Marina Resort, a visitor mentioned, "Very nice lake campground, paved parking pads, lots of foliage, a good bit of lakefront sites... campground has a pool boat ramp."

Activity variety: Margaritaville offers numerous family-friendly amenities. A visitor shared, "The campsite was perfect and clean. The staff was super friendly and helpful. The resort was immaculate."

Bathroom cleanliness: Restroom facilities vary by location. At Red Top Mountain, a camper reported, "The bathhouse was an uphill hike probably 300 ft away but was modern and clean with hot showers and good water pressure."

Educational opportunities: Many parks offer ranger programs and junior ranger activities. At Fort Yargo, a visitor mentioned the "nature programs, gift shop, putt-putt golf, playgrounds, hiking, mountain biking" available for families.

Tips from RVers

Site dimensions: Many cabins share campgrounds with RV sites. A visitor to Red Top Mountain cautioned, "Heavily wooded sites that are not well maintained. Very narrow roads in the campground with lots of pot holes. Not the easiest state park to pull a travel trailer in."

Water and electric connections: Most cabin areas offer 30/50 amp service. At Fort Mountain, "All sites are 30/50 amp with water. Grey water drains are located around the campground."

Weather considerations: Higher elevation parks experience significant temperature drops. "We camped in our trusty pop up camper so direct sun is always an issue (non-insulated bunk ends) but a travel trailer/RV would probably fare well," noted one Don Carter visitor.
