3 nights at Lula Disc House

The tent was private, but near every thing. The Bath house was very clean and well maintained. While we are not Disc Golfers, it was very peaceful. We went for a few walks, but we really were just trying to get outdoors and enjoy the fresh air, which we did. Definitely would go back or refer a friend.

Group trip

1 night at Lula Disc House

Genenally, we loved the glamping site in Lula Disc House. We stayed one night for my daughter’s spring break trip. The owner, Corbin, was very kind to answer my questions, when I called one day before the stay. The atmosphere was quiet and the glamping tent and site was clean and well-maintained. The tent has a heater and AC control, a coffee maker, and a refrigerator in the room. The hammock was fun to ride!! The site BBQ grill was clean and Corbin was very helpful to show how to set up camp fire because it was the first time for us. Our dog enjoyed the trip, too. We all had a good time!! We stayed one night, it would be better to stay longer. We would come back and recommend this site to 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.
