We did a last minute campground booking and to our surprise the camp sites were very well maintained and good. We did not encounter any animals at night. Restrooms were clean

We come here several times a year as a family and it feels like a home away from home at this point. Clean sites, friendly rangers, stocked bath houses. Big variety of terrain to choose from regarding sites.

The views are great. Very hilly with switchbacks. Only 2 bathrooms for all sites. Very quiet. Not much to do there other than hike and enjoy campfires and outdoors. Ellijay is the closest town, which is quite touristy. If you like wine tasting, it's great. Not an area for bicycling. I probably wouldn't return.

The park is lovely, with great views and hilly terrain. Lots of switchbacks and steep angles on roads - a butt-clencher for long trailers. The campsites are flat, clean concrete, and our connections on Site #2 worked fine. The bathrooms are a hike from most sites, with only 1 bathroom on each loop. The federal budget changes and firings of federal employees seem to have hit this park hard, but the volunteer staff are really nice. Building maintenance seems to be deteriorating, and the gate entry building is always empty, with hand written notes posted. There is not much to do here without transport as it's very spread out, and hilly. Super quiet. Nice place, but probably wouldn't go back. The highlight was going into Elijay for the day: lunch and tourist browsing $$tuff in a charming southern small town.

There campsites are level and well maintained. The sites are mostly on the lake but are too steep to access the water. Sites #12 and #13 are on a gradual slope to the water and it was easy for us to walk down the trail. We saw several deer and a huge Gobbler!
