Summary

Andrew's Cove Campground offers a charming setting with good spacing between campsites and a picturesque creek running through it, making for a pleasant ambiance. Many campers appreciated the proximity to hiking trails and the nearby town of Helen, with some sites being particularly peaceful. However, there are concerns about road noise, the condition of facilities, and issues with reservations, which detracted from the overall experience for some visitors.

We had a good time with the location due to its proximity to Helen. I wouldent have paid 80 dollars though had I known they were going to shut the water off. I could have camped for free in the WMA or National forest just as easy. Probably wont go back if theres no perk to paying the money for the spot. The chemical bathrooms were not clean either.

Had a great time here. We had spot 10 and it was right on the water which was lovely. There are reviews about how close the campground is to the main road, but it didn't bother us at all. It was a short drive to downtown Helen which was fun to go to for a day. It rained so we didn't get a chance to hike, but there are trails right at the campground to do so. Overall I would recommend!

I reserved space for four nights but stayed two because of the broken site driveway and entrance street. I was tired of navigating the huge gapping holes. I will not reserve the site 5 and the two sites near the upper part of the campground when I want to return. I do like the location to Helen and the trailhead. The campground is well maintained especially the vault bathroom.
Thanks for asking and thanks for this camping area.

I enjoyed my stay at Site 2. It's right by the creek and is very peaceful. The only issue with the campground is there is no service and no showers or hookups. If you need service, you can leave the campground and park at the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest sign down the road headed towards Helen. If you camp here, go visit Anna Ruby Falls!

Overall we enjoyed the sight. It was right next to the hiking trail which was perfect, right above the creek which was great at night once everything got quiet, and large enough of what we needed. However, there is a tree right smack dab in the middle of the parking area that required avoiding when backing in, we counted three yellow jacket nests (we all got stung least once), and the sight wasn’t very level due to erosion and a lack of proper up keep. In no way to I blame this on the FS but the previous campers, we had quite a bit of trash in our fire pit when we arrived. Clean up after yourselves people, this ain’t your mama’s house. Otherwise it was an awesome trip.
