Campers looking to access Amicalola Falls will find Under The Hemlock Campground positioned less than a mile from the state park entrance. This small, family-operated facility sits within the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest, offering 15 sites with electric and water hookups alongside basic cabin rentals. The forested setting provides shade for most sites, each equipped with picnic tables, fire pits, and grills.
The campground maintains a quiet atmosphere that appeals to visitors seeking a low-key base camp. Sarah C. notes the property is "small and quiet" with reliable hookups at each site. A small camp store stocks snacks, ice cream, and basic supplies. The owners prepare boiled peanuts on-site, which several campers mention as a local touch.
Bath houses provide hot showers and restroom facilities, though recent reviews indicate maintenance can be inconsistent. The proximity to Amicalola Falls State Park Camping makes this a practical overflow option when the state park fills up. Bull Mountain and Jake Mountain trails begin nearby for day hiking.
The campground accepts pets and allows campfires. Reservations are available by phone. For additional camping options in the region, consider places to camp near Dawsonville about 11 miles southeast.
