The entrance driveway to our site was so steep and loose that I had to use 4WD to get up it in reverse. Other than that we thought it was a great park.

Great campground hosts. The area was clean. My campsite was very level. The bathhouse was also very clean.

We stayed on site #71. It was a good site except for the picnic table. The table was very thick wood and stayed wet the whole time. The benches are very thick also and too high to the table, which means unless you have " bird legs" can't sit on it to eat. We were there 9 nights, and I didn't put a tablecloth on it for the 1st several days hoping it would dry but did not. When I did put a tablecloth on it I had to cut enough off to put on the benches to keep our clothes from getting wet when we did try to use it. All the camp hosts were very friendly. The area is very beautiful and we enjoyed our stay.

I was not happy with the wood I received for $7. There was only 4 pieces in the bag. I wanted a refund but they only gave me a second bag. This was not the same as one real bag of wood.

We live nearby and camp here often. It is a great campground, very well maintained and managed. We really like this #66 site. It is huge, private, and bordered by two creeks

We had a great experience. We came here to be close to Tallulah Gorge and it was a great location to stay. The campsites were very well kept and the restrooms were nice and clean. We loved having the trail so close to our campsite. The campground host were also very kind. Highly recommend!

Rabun Beach Campground is near and dear to my husband's and my heart. We both have been coming here since we were children. My husband was raised in Lakemont, GA. We thought the campground was in good shape, glad to see an added bathroom and shower. The campground hosts were GREAT! We were disappointed that the bathhouse/showers at the beach were gone, but it had been cleaned up and rejuvenated. I think there is a missed opportunity in the large open space between the bathhouse and the camp host site on Side # 2. Why not put some playground equipment there!?!
