⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Piney Hills Campground was the perfect place to kick off our road trip! We only stayed one night, but it was exactly what we needed, and I would absolutely stay here again if I'm ever back in the area.
The campground is tucked away in the peaceful countryside of Mauk, Georgia, and has such a charming, relaxing atmosphere. They offer a little bit of everything—primitive campsites, adorable yurts, RV sites, and more comfortable campsites like the one we stayed in.
We stayed at Site 3, which had a nice view of the main house and one of the horses. If you're looking for the best sunset views, I'd recommend requesting Site 4. It has a platform overlooking the small farm and is the perfect spot to enjoy the evening.
One thing people should know is that there is a train nearby, and you'll hear it every 15–30 minutes or so. Unless you're an extremely light sleeper who needs complete silence, I don't think it's an issue. It certainly didn't take away from our experience.
The bathhouse was clean, cute, and had hot showers. My only suggestion for improvement would be the motion-sensor lights—they turn off pretty quickly, so you'll find yourself waving your arms while you're in the shower or even sitting in the restroom to keep the lights on.
There's also a small camp store, which is a nice bonus. We arrived at 6:00 p.m. and left around 10:00 the next morning, so we didn't have a chance to explore everything, but our stay was peaceful, quiet, and very enjoyable.
Thank you
