Traveling with my husband, we decided to stop in and see the state park. Didnt realize prices went up to $10 as of January 1st, 2026 from $5. Not a huge fan of the QR code way to pay. Its convenient if you dont have cash but I miss the paper tags that hung on your mirror stating you visited the park. It was a souvenir I liked to have as memorabilia. We were a little disappointed because the lake was dried up due to the dam repairs. So no waterfall either. I was bummed out but the visitor center was great. The ladies inside were really nice. There was a fire place in the lobby area, I really liked that. It would be a great way to spend the day sitting out on the porch looking out over the lake. Maybe it will be filled the next time we come thru. Well kept and beautiful, otherwise.

After camping here earlier in the year we brought the whole family to stay in the cabins. We love them! So nice and clean with many of the comforts from home! Thank you Vogel for such a wonderful experience! We will be back!

We camp ALOT and Vogel is one of our top 3 parks in Georgia to visit!! The new visitors lodge is so nice. gas fireplaces inside and out. New restrooms, rocking chairs under roof for lake viewing. Great camp sites on the creek and new bathhouses!! Hot showers, great hosts.

One of the best state parks in Georgia — about a 2-hour drive from Atlanta. The drive itself is stunning, with winding roads that motor enthusiasts will love, especially in the fall when the yellow, orange, and red foliage is absolutely breathtaking. The trails are great for hiking, particularly if you’re experienced — I highly recommend the Blood Mountain Trail. It’s also a fantastic spot for camping, especially with family. Pro tip: bring your own food and drinks, as there aren’t many options nearby.

Nice quiet campground. The facilities have been recently renovated with upgraded trailer slots with sewer hookups in most. A new, very nice visitor center at the lake. Wi-Fi is sketchy. ATT cell signal very poor. The Wi Fi worked ok.. The camp hosts were awesome!
