Lake Lanier is absolutely beautiful and Bald Ridge campground offers many sites with a great view of the lake.

Bathrooms and grounds were the best I have seen in years. They did leave a lot of trees they had cut or fallen laying around and they have done nothing at the former/bench deck on the upper loop which makes it difficult for older people to try to climb the steep slope from the lake to the road if they walk from the site 28/29 to the old platform.

We had a wonderful stay at Bald Ridge Creek campgrounds! Being relatively new to camping and never having seen anything like this before, we were surprised to have to drive through a congested residential neighborhood with narrow roads and speedbumps to get to the campground entrance. The campground and public facilities are all very clean. We extended our stay at this campground due to bad weather back home (hurricane). Our site was already reserved for the extra nights, but we were able to reserve another site close by and moved into that one without any issues. Bring bicycles if you have them because there are lots of paths and roads to enjoy a nice ride! Be aware when taking your dog for a walk that (like in most campgrounds) some campers still don't believe their pets need to be kept on a leash. It's unfortunate, but it happened several times with us during this trip. Beautiful park!

Pull thru site with lots of grassy area between sites. A view of the lake but not on the water. A favorite for us.

Always excellent sites, camp hosts very friendly. Site clean and well manicured. Site overlooking the lake with a huge grassy area around the RV plus close to playground for folks with children, but not on the lake to worry about youngsters falling in the water.

The campground was very clean, as was the bathhouse. Most of the sites had plenty of room and good separation from neighbors. We will definitely return.
