Beautiful, clean, uncrowded campground with campsites that backed up to natural forest rather than other campsites.

there needs to be a campground map showing each site. I was unable to reserve on mon or tue but able to reserve for thursday. Your host had no record of my reservation. I wish you were open all year.

The facilities were clean and nice. Loved getting back with nature. Love the falls in campground. Mr. Jimmy and Podgi , the campground host and his little sweet furbaby, was always looking out for us. Can't wait to go back!!!💛

Very nice campsite! I stayed by myself and the host was very welcoming and made me feel safe. Each site seems pretty spread out to give a sense of privacy while staying in the community. Beach access area was beautiful as well!! Will definitely be back with friends!

We really like this campground. The sites are spacious and the restrooms are clean. We've only camped in Loop 2 due to water/electric, but Loop 1 sites look amazing. Huge, wooded, private sites. We may decide to try one of those next! The beach area is nice -- a little beat up due to lack of federal funds (I'm guessing), but the scenery is so beautiful and relaxing. This is becoming our go-to campground!

This place was great! Waterfront camping on a mountain in the woods, couldn't be a nicer place.

We came to camp and observe the Feast of Tabernacles for the first time and had a wonderful experience! Surprisingly, it was actually pretty nice to "disconnect" (no cell signal whatsoever) and just spend time together as a family, and honor the maker of it all. The Lord is good and He is our provider!

This was our first time at lake rabun beach campground. We had a very good stay. Plenty of fire wood to pickup. Bath houses were very clean and modern. Rv Campground is a ways from the beach area so is best to drive. Only a few sites that would be good for large RV. So be aware. Ours is 20 foot pull behind but larger ones may have trouble with some roads. On cell service at all. Ono one we talked to had any service regardless of carrier. That was the thing we didn't like. If there was an emergency could be really bad.

We had a very pleasant stay! I was there for my birthday last week and I could not ask for more! I reserved spot 43 but because we were a with a toddler we wanted to move closer to the restroom with electricity and right at the angel falls entrance. The keepers we very accommodating and nice! They also go around the place several times a day making us feel safe. For next time spot 51 is like the presidential suite with the view of some falls and next to the creek 👌 would come back if I have a chance!
