This is a super small family owned place. This review is for the RV camping. The RV sites are extremely close together and not level. There are no photos of the RV section on the website. Super tight when needing to turn around, and we have a small rig. There are buddha and goddess statues and fairy gardens everywhere, and floating lights displayed all night long that resemble fireflies. We weren't a fan. There's no check in office so you have to wait to reach an employee by text. Portapotties were clean. Super close to downtown Helen. Road down into the tent camping was quite steep. At least a few RVs have been there quite a long time and look to be in some disrepair. Normally we love rustic woods camping but we won't be back to this place.

Fort Mountain has options for every kind of camper. From pull through and hookup sites for RV campers to the walk-in sites and platform sites, formerly known as the squirrel's nest. Lots of trees, the restrooms and bath houses are very well kept. There's a nice lake with a swimming area and paddle boat and canoe rentals. There are also nice hiking trails, most of them are pretty easy and well-maintained. There are some beautiful more advanced trails that give you some amazing views of the mountains on various Overlook sites. There are also several beautiful waterfalls for hikers with a little more physical skill. You definitely have to be prepared for Bears. There are bear proof storage containers in a few areas, otherwise everything must be kept stored securely such as in a vehicle. The Bears are not aggressive but they certainly know how to get into a cooler. The platform sites in the squirrel's Nest are fairly remote and rustic. Some of those sites have room to pitch a tent, some of them not so much. You definitely get good exercise hauling your gear from the car but the walk is well worth the privacy. They have also just recently built several additional cabins for those who prefer to be inside.
