Has restrooms now showers or electric. Sites are nice and really well kept. Camp host is amazing and is really helpful. Near to Dawsonville Car Museum, Outlet Mall, and Dahlonega where you can go tubing, shop, or pan for Gold. Lots to do in the mountains. We hiked at DeSoto Falls which is a great destination and an easy hike for families and kids. We'll be back.

STAY AWAY. Campground was great until the weekend was over. Some unsavory people started to wander around. I mentioned to the host of a vehicle coming in and parking beside my spot and just sitting there and then leaving after about 10 minutes. She said no one was supposed to be there except myself and that she would look into it. The vehicle showed up again, and she didn't recognize it, she went to talk to the individual, and then her demeanor and answers changed. She said oh I know him, that they were friends. I said ok. They talked for a minute in front of my spot and then moved to a different spot and talked for another 30 minutes and then both left. About an hour later the same individual shows back up and starts pitching a tent, music loud and then he walks into the woods and comes by my spot and asks, "you're not leaving are you?" By this time I'm extremely spooked. I packed as fast as I could and left immediately. The next morning I called the corps of engineers and spoke to a person who said he was the ranger in charge, a Joseph fulcher. He said to email him the description and details and he would email me back. Never heard back... my advice is to stay far away from this campground. There is no gate for the campsite itself, so anyone can drive on up without anyone stopping them at all. There is a gate that is front of the road for both the picnic area and the campsite, but again no one monitors anything. Also the bathrooms are OUTSIDE of the gate approximately 1/2 mile away from the campsites, so if you need to use the restroom in the night good luck with that. Bring your own tp and find a spot in the woods.
