We stayed here for 3 nights last weekend in Yurt 6. The yurt was as expected and in my opinion 6 has the best views and a large beach area. The yurt has a picnic table, grill and firepit. The yurt also has ac and heat and a ceiling fan. The mattresses in 6 need to be replaced because none were comfortable and seemed to have a hole in the middle. I also wish they would include a mini fridge in the yurts. Something important to note is the yurts here are walk in and not park at. All the yurts are down a large hill especially 6. They do provide wheelbarrows for transporting your gear but getting it back up the hill can be challenging. The bathhouse was nice with hot showers available. The yurt could’ve been a little cleaner also especially when paying over $100 a night. Large spider webs everywhere including hanging from the ceiling fan. Mattress covers looked worn and stained.This is a nice park. Ice and firewood available at the store.

This was my first visit to Tugaloo State Park. The park is located on Lake Hartwell in Lavonia, GA. The park was very clean. The park has a mega ramp for launching boats. The park cabin I stayed in was very clean and modern looking. I would definitely recommend a visit or stay at this park.

We stayed at Campsite #7 and had such a wonderful experience! The location was perfect — peaceful with a beautiful lakeside view. The restrooms were very clean, and the hot showers were a huge plus after a day outdoors. The lady at the front desk was incredibly kind and helpful, which made check-in smooth and welcoming. We truly enjoyed our time here and will definitely recommend this state park to friends and family. We’ll absolutely be back again!

As state parks go, and I've stayed at a few now, this one is average. I think of I had a boat this would be 5 stars. But for an average traveler like myself, this was only an ok place. I did walk the long loop (4 miles) which was nice. But beyond that, the campground accommodate about a hundred campers who all come for the lake on the weekend. Again, not a bad thing if that's what you want to do. All of the accommodations were good and the rangers were all wonderful. Just not the perfect spot for a traveler without a boat.

Good space between sites. Beautiful Lake and nice bath houses. Only one shower so plan accordingly :) very clean and nice trails. We had a great time and park office and store very friendly and accommodating. Enjoyable, relaxing stay.

This place is absolutely beautiful. Our campsite was the perfect place waterfront. I think our site number was 55. There’s trails, fishing, swimming, water sports, etc. Bath houses were clean. And everyone was so friendly. We can’t wait to come back!

Nice state park. I went for the nature trail. There are two trails to choose from...the Sassafrass Loop Trail and the Muscadine Trail (the short loop). I did the Sassafrass, which was a little challenging. It is a 4-mile loop with elevations throughout the trail. But it is an interesting hike. I even saw some deer. Park has a beach area (for nicer weather), tennis court, playground, picnic tables, and grills. There is plenty to do if you want to make a day of it.

Great little park. We stayed in a yurt which was a great compromise between roughing it and being comfortable. Kids loved it. Very friendly staff. Tiny bit of road noise but not terrible. We’ll be back.

AMAZING! We rented cottage 3 in August 24. The cottage was the cleanest place I have ever stayed in. They had everything you need for your trip. You have access to the water. It's about 150 feet down a slight incline. The cabin provides a picnic table, fire pit. We loved the back porch and it was screened in with fans. We will definitely be back. Next time we would rent a golf cart because it is a little distance for the playgrounds, nature hut, other beach etc. Also we would recommend bringing bikes or scooters.
