Miners Cabin: The miners cabin is located in between Dawsonville and Dahlonega Georgia in the heart of gold country. This unexpected gem has been our family’s oasis for the past 7 years and now, we are opening it up to share with others. Access to the cabin will be via our driveway and guests will not be allowed to drive directly to the cabin. There is a short 3 minute walk from parking access to the cabin. This walk is on an incline and those who may have difficulties walking up or down an incline or on uneven surfaces should consider this walk when planning your trip. Due to access limitations, we ask that you not bring more than two vehicles, We have additional parking at another property if needed but please let us know in advance. The Cabin sits on a grassy meadow a stones throw from cane branch stream. In the morning and afternoon you should expect to see or hear all types of wildlife. We have a family of raccoons that come around in the summer months and will eat just 5 foot from the porch. In the winter we have several deer that access the creekbed. The wildlife is fed often by our family and has been for the past seven years. Hummingbirds, woodpeckers, whippoorwills, crows, and even goldfish call this oasis home. At night our kids love to hunt for small crawfish in the creek with a flashlight. While bears are always something to watch for, we don’t typically see them on the property. A few miles of walking paths have been meticulously cared for and created by my father Mike. The mossy stone paths look like something out of a story book in the spring. Along the trails you will find benches and hammocks to lounge on and if you look close enough you may find some crystals that were placed for others to find from some of our many mineral digs over the years. There are two bridges that cross the stream along the paths and an old water wheel from way back that was used in the gold mining process in the creek. Vegetation on the property includes a variety of chantrell and coral mushrooms. If Mushrooming is your thing we have a good stash of chicken of the woods and if it’s fruiting you are welcome to pick it. Mountain laurels line the creek and bloom beautiful pink blossoms in the spring and summer. Cane creek branch is a quiet and beautiful stream. The water only gets about waist high at the deepest point making it perfect for kids or dogs to splash around in. Inside the cabin you will find a few gold pans if you would like to try your luck. We have found gold in the creek along with garnets and a few flashes of platinum. This property used to be the site for a long abandoned gold mine and an old metal water wheel still sits on the creek bank. The water wheel is locked but will still turn and at over 8 ft high it is a sight to see in itself. You will find a few small fish but nothing to shake a pole at. The cabin itself is nothing fancy and we like to keep it that way. It is as primitive as you would expect from the title. Only one electrical outlet is currently in the cabin. There is no running water but there is a water basin for brushing your teeth and washing small items. The bathroom is behind the cabin in a separate facility. This outhouse is unlike anything you have seen and has all of the comforts of home. Sleeping arrangements include a king size bed on a solid frame and a small sofa. You are welcome to pitch a tent or hammock outside as well. In the winter the cabin gets cold, we will provide an electric heater but you should know that it may still get cold inside. The porch looks over the creek and makes a great spot for bird watching. Amenities include a charcoal grill and a fire pit for cooking. The fire pit has several stable adirondack chairs circling it. We have a throwing board on the property however you will need to rent the throwing items from us and sign a waiver. We also have a small swing by our goldfish pond just across the creek. Things to do near us. Kayaking and tubing are just 7 miles down the road. You can rent a kayak from us or from the outfitters. We have 4 sit on top kayaks for adults 2 for children under 100 lbs and several whitewater kayaks are available for rent if you have prior experience. We also will guide you down the river as an additional service. See our price list. Our local outfitter Chestatee River Adventures is typically 30.00 for each kayak and 10.00 for tubing. The trip is 6 miles and can take anywhere from 3-5 hours depending on the water level. Please note that the outfitter is only open during the spring and summer. Our family will take you out no matter the time of year. Fishing on the Chestatee, Etowah, or lake lanier are also great activities and all can be accessed with a short 10 minute drive. Lake Zwerner is a local fishing hot spot great for grabbing a kayak or canoe and spending the day on the water. Gold Mining: Dahlonega is the gold city! Only 15 minutes away you will find Consolidated Gold Mine – Underground Gold Mine Tours. Here you can do some gold and gem mining as part of the tour. The gold museum in scenic dahlonega is close by as well.If you are looking for something more my dad offers trips and will show you the basics or can take you out for an all day dredging experience. You keep whatever you find! Hiking: The area hikes include the start of the great Appalachian (Apple-atch-an) trail. This is amicalola state park a 25 minute drive from the property.

Glamping near Sandy Springs with fishing guide

Overview

From scenic RV routes to lush, forest tent campgrounds, Sandy Springs has a campsite for everyone. It’s surrounded by national parks all around and the Chattahoochee River on two sides, meaning Sandy Springs features outdoor adventures only a short drive from Atlanta. Visit Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area for riverside camping and cabins, or take in the mountain vista from an RV park in Stone Mountain Park. Adrenaline-filled activities like river rafting can also be found at Morgan Falls Overlook Park, a spot that will add to the perfect camping trip near Sandy Springs.

Where to go

Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area

Just 25 minutes from Sandy Springs, Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area is the spot to take a leisurely stroll by the water or jump into a guided rafting tour. Plenty of trails in the area offer riverside and forest hiking as well as pet-friendly spots for walking and picnicking. The surrounding forest features an array of group and dispersed campsite options, including remote spots for tents, RV camping, and cabins with showers, electricity, flush toilets, and water.

Stone Mountain Park

With 3,200 acres of nature to explore, Stone Mountain Park offers outdoor activities like fishing, biking, hiking, and golf. Take the walking trail up to the top of the mountain for stunning views of downtown Atlanta and the North Georgia mountains—or ride the cable car for an accessible scenic excursion. Cabins, yurts, RV parks, and tent campsites make it easy to stay right near the park—just book early to score tent and pop-up sites with hookups for water and electricity.

Morgan Falls Overlook Park

Featuring 30 acres of riverside views, Morgan Falls Overlook Park includes fire pits, boat docks, hiking, and a playground for family fun. Paddleboard, kayak, and canoe rentals are open seasonally, while hiking and self-guided options are available year-round. Book a campsite near the park or reserve the group pavilion for larger outdoor gatherings with family and friends.

When to go

Georgia’s mild climate is great for a long outdoor season—spring, summer, and fall are ideal for all types of camping, and September and October often see fewer crowds than in summer. These months are also slightly cooler at an average of 77°F compared to the peak months of June and July, which can reach 87°F. Winter camping is available, though it’s recommended to have some winter camping experience for mountain sites, as weather can change quickly. It’s also advisable to call ahead and check whether amenities are available during off-seasons.
