Come join us at this unforgettable camping spot at Historic Castleberry Bridge where the Gold Rush happened, the Indian fish trap still exist, the birth place of Denver Colorado and the hideout of Jesse James just some of the history that happened at your campsite on the Etowah River. Our motto is "Thanks for keeping it clean," so help us spread the word and keep it true!
Look for the gate at Castleberry Bridge Rd (right where the bridge crosses the river) and drive through the gate and left and George (owner) should be there. He will open the second gate for you where you will be able to drive through and park at your site - weather permitting. To the left of the first gate is the community area with toilet, grills, picnic tables, etc. Remember, your phone might not work near the river. If you need help, you might have to go back up to the road to call us. George (the owner) is there most every day and all day.
There's so much fun waiting for you to explore! Tubes are available for a $10 charge per day. If you're feeling extra adventurous, there are rope swings that let you swing over the river, and there are super cool places to splash around and swim, part of which, is in the Indian Fish Trap.
When your tummy starts rumbling, don't worry. We've got you covered with grills in the community area where you can cook delicious food. So you can have a tasty meal with the sound of the river flowing in the background. Also we are within 5-10 minutes to stores, restaurant , etc.
But wait, there's more excitement! If you're looking for an even bigger adventure, this is the perfect spot to begin an awesome kayaking trip if you brought your kayak. Castleberry Bridge is where people from all over the country come to experience going through the Miner's Tunnel.
So whether you want to float, swing, swim, or paddle, Castleberry Bridge is the place to be for all kinds of outdoor fun!
Camping price is for 2 adults. Kids under 13 camp free. For an additional fee you may add more adults to your group. George can arrange a pick for your kayak trip for $39 if needed.

Guests love staying with us: "My wife, 2 dogs, and I had an amazing weekend stay at Debbie's campsite. The RV site was level and all the hookups were conveniently located and worked great. Her lakefront property is beautiful and we thoroughly enjoyed walking our dogs around the property and also taking some camping chairs down to the dock to take in the sunset. The firepit can hold a massive fire and I would definitely recommend buying some firewood from Debbie as it is perfectly seasoned and burns great. We really appreciated having the gas grill/charcoal combo grill on site to cook dinners on and there is plenty of space to play some yard games (cornhole, frisbee etc). We will absolutely come back!"

I had a great time. I found a nice place to set up the tent close to the pole barn, I like my coffee in the morning and didn't want to waste time getting it so I opted for the use of the electricity. The ducks were fun, I think they thought they were dogs. I was impressed by how well maintained the property was and was completely comfortable walking around. I really enjoyed walking on the grass barefoot and the mosquitoes really weren't that bad. I went for peace and quiet and that is exactly what I got. Coffee and quiet.

Beautiful land, people and the cutest duck and goose !

Second time at castleberry Bridge Campsite, and I’m just as in love with it as the first time!
George and Ginni are amazing hosts,welcoming, friendly, and great communicators. The place is a 10/10, and the fire pit was already set up when we arrived, which was such a thoughtful touch.
Best part? It’s dog-friendly! My fur baby absolutely loves it here. Definitely coming back again!

We absolutely loved our stay at Owl’s Nest. The campground is beautiful, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Having clean bathrooms and showers on site for both men and women was a huge plus. Everything was clean and well maintained, firewood was available right on site, and everything was ready for us when we arrived.
What really made our stay special, though, was the people. The entire staff was incredibly gracious and welcoming. Kord, Stephen and Keith each went above and beyond to make sure my daughter and I were comfortable and had a wonderful time. Their hospitality made an already beautiful camping experience even better.
They’re currently making some renovations and improvements to the property, and we’re already excited to come back and see everything once it’s complete!
This was our first stay, but it definitely won’t be our last. I think Owl’s Nest has earned themselves some lifelong customers. ❤️ Thank you for helping my daughter and me make such beautiful memories together. We’ll absolutely be back!

We love Castleberry Bridge! It’s the best. George and Gini are awesome. George is super funny and always there to help. I love that they provide the wood for fires and even set it up for you to start your first fire. It’s a great place to bring your dog and your family. I wish I was back there right now, ngl. I’ll be back soon, though!

Where to go
Atlanta & North Georgia
The north Georgia mountains provide some of the state’s best camping and hiking terrain, including part of the Appalachian Trail. The vast Chattahoochee National Forest is dotted with historic sites and campgrounds, while cascading waterfalls, RV camping, and glampsites await at Amicalola Falls State Park. Canyon hikes and waterfalls are among the highlights at Tallulah Gorge State park and Cloudland Canyon State Park (the latter also has yurts for rent), and Red Top Mountain State Park lies less than an hour from the state capital, Atlanta.
Central Heartlands
Augusta, Athens, and Macon have a rich musical legacy—artists from James Brown to Otis Redding hail from these parts—plus some of Georgia’s best camping right on their doorstep. Head to Mistletoe State Park to hike, kayak, and fish on the shores of Clarkes Hill Lake; snag an RV campsite or cabin at George L. Smith State Park; or rent a cozy cottage at Indian Springs State Park.
South Georgia
Rolling farmlands form the backdrop for a road trip through South Georgia, perhaps checking into an RV park in one of the many small towns along the way. The region’s most impressive hiking trails are found in Providence Canyon State Park, along with backcountry tent sites, while Stephen C. Foster State Park is an International Dark Sky Park and a wildlife haven set on the banks of the Okefenokee Swamp.
Coastal Georgia
Georgia’s 100-mile slice of Atlantic coastline stretches down from Savannah to Cumberland Island, peppered with sandy beaches, saltwater marshes, and barrier islands. Rent a camper cabin or RV site with full hookups close to the beaches and waterways of Skidaway Island State Park, explore the biking trails or take a dolphin-spotting cruise around Tybee Island, or escape the crowds at the hike-in campsites along the Cumberland Island National Seashore.
