Great campground for RVs or tent camping located at the base of Yonah mountain and conveniently located just minutes away from Helen as well as Cleveland. Well kept facilities and super nice staff to make you stay more comfortable. They also have a laundry and propane available

My girlfriend and I had a great few days here for Thanksgiving. It was easy to check in, cheap for tent camping, and the staff were polite, helpful, and friendly. The campground was just minutes away from the trailhead for hiking Yonah Mountain and less than 10 minutes to the grocery store (Ingles). They also had ice and firewood on site to burn in the provided fire rings. On top of all that, they... My girlfriend and I had a great few days here for Thanksgiving.

On top of all that, they contacted me after I left to say they found my wallet and mailed it to me immediately when I gave them my address. We will be back!

We arrived for a week of camping in our rv and the site was not level enough to get our wide Work and Play level. We tried everything and then I went to the office and told the host. Immediately they resolved our problem by switching us to a flatter site. Perfect! Internet is good and cell coverage is fine.

The people here are the nicest, the sites very nice with FHU and the bathhouse is clean with hot water! This is our spot when we come to the Helen area.

Great campground. Very clean. Love all the trees for shade. Spots are spaced well even for a large Class A. You can tell the owners/staff really care. We will be returning.

Felt like a homeless tent area, all tent sites side by side right next to each other. Street lamp in the site are on all night, nothing feels natural here if you know what I mean. Firewood they sell are moist all the way. Golf carts run around are loud, anpther camper came and said the staff gave them the same site number as us. Just a straight up caos shelter.
