Upper and lower falls were both good. Upper is about 9/10 mile from the parking lot. Lower is about 3/10 mile. Upper is harder with more elevation gain but easy overall. Not very crowded and parking is easy.

The campground is nice and well maintained. There are some simple trails to waterfalls or to just spend some time in the woods. The campground is close to Helen, GA so that is a plus. The downside of the campground is the road noise you get non-stop. The campground is right off the main road so you’ll have a constant hum of cars and motorcycles. Overall this campground is great and I would definitely recommend it.

Lovely little hike to 2 pretty waterfalls. Easy enough for kids, very pet friendly. The lower falls is more of an incline but not bad. Upper falls is longer but less strenuous. $5 parking. Vault toilets at trailhead. Picnic area too. There is also a campground that looked nice but we did not camp there, just went for the day. Great way to enjoy the outdoors!

Very nice area to hike. There is a campground here. Plenty of parking, there’s a kiosk to pay for parking, $5. It was not working when we visited, QR code to pay. Service isn’t the best and you have to download the app if you don’t have it, I didn’t. There were several of us having issues. I eventually got it down before we left. Upper falls is the longest, not too difficult. The trail is like most well marked roots and rocks here and there. The lower falls is short distance but all incline! We have been here several times. I actually managed not to miss the entrance this time.

Beautiful park and campground. To hit both the waterfalls is about 2 miles and small elevation gain. I would rate it on the easier side of moderate. The trails are well maintained and marked. You can bring dogs as long as they are leashed. 5$ parking unless you have an interagency pass.
