The camp host was not a very nice person. No patience whatsoever.

We camped at C89 and C90, these sites are fantastic, they are lower down and feel private as they are surrounded by trees. Conveniently they also had a small path between them so it's fantastic when camping together with friends and family.

We were able to get a lake front spot A5. It was very nice and shady. Our camp spot was pretty big too. We did have to walk down a little trail to get to the lake. We had a great week camping. Bell Mountain and Brasstown Bald are both a must see.

The campsite spots were spacious and shaded and very comfortable. The bathrooms are basic but clean and functional. And we really enjoyed being able to walk down the hill and jump into the lake. Also having bike trails right there made for a fun-filled vacation without having to drive anywhere.

Love this campground as it’s an hour and a half drive and on a lake. Most campsites are well maintained and have lots of trees, keeping the sun from bearing down. Bathrooms are decent.
Wish that people had more respect of their fellow campers. Had to walk down two campsites and ask some people to lower their voices at 2 AM! Another ran their generator all night. Another let their dog bark for hours. And there are boats playing loud music late into the night or bass boats roaring into the cove at 5-6 AM. That cove should be closed to motor boat traffic.
It’s best to camp during the week as boat traffic is less and people are less obnoxious.

Great campground but the host does little. I messed up my schedule and thought I had an additional night. The host never came by to tell me my reservation was up. The next camper arrived at 6 pm and said I was on his site. Should not have happened.

It is more rustic than I like, but it's good.

Campground was beautiful. Bathrooms were clean. We stayed in spot 23 which was the perfect spot with kids who wanted to swim all day. Campsite is on the water with a mini beach. The only thing I wished our site had were some stairs from the car to the tent/picnic area. We have T-Mobile and service was good.
