Babbling Brook RV Site is a beautiful haven tucked away from the rest of the bustling world, allowing you the peace and quiet you deserve. The one acre property, spanning across the gorgeous forest, has private access to 200 feet of creek waterfront, allowing for you to fish and relax in the water to your heart's content. The creek is about knee-deep, meaning it is shallow enough for you to properly unwind in and enjoy the calming sounds of the water running around you. Deer has also been known to cross across the property and can be observed as much as you wish.
This spot is only 5-10 minutes away from downtown Blairsville, a quaint little town with many shops for you to browse and activities to try out! Additionally, Meeks Park is only 8 minutes away with nature trails, sports fields, a dog park, swimming pools, and many more!

I have been an equestrian for 40+ years and horses are my passion. Recently purchased this beautiful , peaceful property in 2017 and have had to think outside the box to continue to care for my wonderful animals as when I moved from urban environment to rural , my income has been challenging to teach enough horseback lessons to survive and discovered Hipcamp!
This made me consider sharing this wonderful place. We have a White Dog Farm fan page :Facebook, Instagram: WHITE.DOG.FARM , can show our horse activities and more photos.

We have owned this property since 2005. The pond is a favorite place of ours and we would love to share it with you!! We live just up the mountain are here for you via text if you need anything at all during your stay with us.
The pond is in the middle of about a 4 acre area that is totally forested & makes a great place to get away from the madness of life & get into nature. Our street ends in a cul-de-sac, minimizing traffic in the area, but the spot is right along a street. You will be able to see & hear cars going by the site. On the other hand, it is also right along a deer path & just this morning I saw 2 does & a baby walking through the site. There is a resident hawk & a gaggle of turkeys that live in the area in addition to pileated woodpeckers & all sorts of other birds.
Come check it out and please let us know if you have any questions.

We would love to have you at the Pond at Dogwood Acres. Our pond is just a little pond, but it is full of life and makes for a cozy little campsite. You will be the only ones camping here. There is a long parking spot suitable for cars/SUVs/trucks and even a trailer or pop up.
There are hiking trails leading into the woods at the right side of the end of the drive. Feel free to enjoy them.
We are surrounded by the Chattahoochee National Forest and here in Towns County we are 80% National Forest. Lake Chatuge is close by (less than 10 minutes) in Hiawassee has 132 miles of shoreline. The Appalachian Trail weaves all through the area and you can get to numerous access points for the AT within about 30 minutes. There are a many waterfalls throughout our area within about a 30 minute drive as well. The closest is Cupid Falls just behind Young Harris College. Fire's Creek in Hayesville is a favorite spot. Otherwise you can head towards Vogel State Park and find many more.
Head north on state road 66 heading out of Young Harris towards Warne, North Carolina. Travel almost 4 miles passing 339 and then make a right on Brasstown Lane. If you see mile marker 4 or get to Warne, you passed it. Once you turn onto Brasstown Lane it will be on the right side. Coming from North Carolina head south on 66 out of Warne and make a left onto Brasstown Lane. We are about 1 mile south of the North Carolina state line. We are somewhat in the middle of Blairsville (GA), Hiawassee (GA) and Hayeville (NC). Not far from us is the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC and just a bit further is Murphy, NC.

Learn more about this land:
This site is gravel and level. It is in front of a babbling small creek. The site is private with robust wifi, water and 30 amp electric. The site is 40 feet in length but could probably work also for up to 50'. Slideouts are fine. There is a picnic table, gas grill, chairs and a firepit beside the site. We live on an 18 acre farm. We recently discovered the joy of traveling the US in an Airstream. When we came home after 6000+ miles, because some of our favorite sites were non-traditional ones, we decided to add a site on our farm. Enjoy the dark skies and quietness of the country. We are 10 minutes from downtown Murphy. There is only a small area of gravel which is the actual site. Everything else to get here is paved.

Absolutely love this spot! Have camped here 3 times now and it never disappoints, while on the way in I even saw a family of deer peacefully eating grass and enjoying their stay as well! Josh is a great host and responds very quick!

This cabin was the perfect mountain escape—quiet, tucked into a ravine, and surrounded by winding roads and beautiful views. We arrived late Friday, please note when arriving in the dark it may be a bit hard to find but for us it just added to the laughs. There was no signal out near the cabin, so it took a bit of teamwork, but we got it figured out.
Saturday was all about the outdoors: breakfast at Bear Necessities Café, then hiking Amicalola Falls (about 40 mins away, but again we appreciated the drive through the mountains and we're not rushed to do anything). We tackled the 425+ stairs at the falls, and tag-teamed carrying our dog, who absolutely refused the metal steps 😂. Sunday’s rain slowed things down in the best way—gold mine tour, incredible Mediterranean food at Pharaoh’s Feast, then soaking in the hot tub and ending each night with a campfire. Peaceful, cozy, and dog-friendly. Couldn’t ask for more.

1 night at Tiny Home Way
This was a perfect weekend getaway! We only stayed a single night, but this tiny gem is equipped with everything you need. Beautiful setting, even in winter.
We weren't concerned but we were wondering how well heated the cabin would be. When we woke in the morning it was 24F, feels like 9F, and we had had a toasty night. Blankets provided were perfect. Space heater was excellent. The floor and bottom level were cooler, but the heat rising to the sleeping loft necessitated turning on the fan to circulate and ease a bit of stuffiness, as crazy as that is.
And the hot tub was blessedly HOT, even in the freezing weather. Towels provided. We thoroughly enjoyed a bit of stargazing even with the string lights lit.
We wished we had remembered our firewood. The fire pit by the creek is so inviting, with log formed benches and a bar height one for ease with refreshments. It was still a great coffee spot in the morning.
Jodi and her team are excellent communicators. I was able to consult with them about some of the forest roads in the area as we wanted to do the short day hike to the southern terminus of the Appalachian Trail. MAJOR TIP: approach the parking lot from the north/west direction on the forest service road.
We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

My daughters and I had a wonderful stay. The mattresses were genuinely comfortable, and the aromatherapy diffuser was a nice touch.
The lodge restaurant was incredibly convenient with good food, saving us from meal planning. The nearby trails were easily accessible for exploring.
All tent amenities worked well—Keurig, mini fridge, and climate control functioned as described. Our only issue was the coffee maker lacked water, but we had some packed for hiking.
The outdoor setup with hammocks, fire ring, and grill provided authentic camping feel without needing to bring anything. The bathhouse proximity wasn’t ideal in the cold, but wasn’t too far.
Highly recommended for families seeking nature without sacrificing comfort. The thoughtful details like the diffuser and quality bedding set it apart.

The place was amazing! Everything you need in a camp site. The fire pit and picnic table were just right for meal time and roasting marshmallows. The outhouse was a nice feature for the ladies on the trip. The shelter really came in handy the last morning since it was raining. This place is for sure on our list of places to camp at again. Thank you so much for a wonderful camp site!

Overview
About
With more than 800,000 acres of rambling woodlands, rivers, and streams, dotted with mountains, waterfalls, and wilderness areas, Georgia’s only national forest packs a punch. Some 850 miles of trails provide endless opportunities for hiking, mountain biking, horseback riding, and OHV driving, including a 76-mile section of the Appalachian Trail. Hike the highest point at Brasstown Bald, admire the views at Amicalola Falls, and marvel at the ancient petroglyphs of Track Rock Gap, then pitch your tent in the woods or check into one of the more than 30 campgrounds.
Notable campgrounds
- Best for group camping: Lake Winfield Scott Campground has 31 non-electric sites, one with an electric hook-up, plus a rustic cabin.
- Best for lakeside views: Dockery Lake Recreation Area has 10 non-electric tent/RV sites in a stunning waterfront location.
- Best for family campers: Lake Russell Recreation Area offers 42 non-electric sites, plus picnic areas with grills, hot showers, and a swimming beach nearby.
Tips for snagging a campsite
- Booking policies vary between campgrounds, so it’s essential to check ahead. Some sites can be booked in advance, while many are first-come, first-served.
- Reservable campsites can be booked via the Recreation.gov website.
- Campsite reservations open six months in advance.
When to go
The most popular times for hiking and outdoor activities in Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest are in spring and fall, when temperatures are milder and the forest is at its most colorful. Leaf-peepers take note: Fall foliage peaks from late September through early October. Summer temperatures hover around the mid-80s, so plan a trip to the lakes to cool off. Camping is possible year-round, but many campgrounds close for winter.
Know before you go
- Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest stretches over 18 counties in north Georgia, starting 70 miles north of Atlanta.
- No admission fees apply to visit the forest, but day passes are required for many of the recreational areas. Camping reservation fees also apply.
- Dispersed camping is permitted in many areas of the forest, providing you follow Leave No Trace principles.
- Park facilities include picnic areas and restrooms at day-use and camping areas, but it’s advisable to bring everything you need with you. Cell phone and GPS service can be patchy.
- Accessible campgrounds and day-use areas are available.

Lake Sinclair Recreation Area
We stayed at Lake Sinclair Recreation Area Campground for two nights in April and had a great experience. The campground was quiet, well-maintained, and felt relaxed without being crowded. One of the biggest highlights was the electric sites being only $15, which is an excellent value for a lakeside campground.
The swimming area was a lot of fun and a nice bonus, especially for warmer afternoons. The campground grounds were clean and well cared for, including the campsites and common areas, which made the stay even more enjoyable.
Overall, this is a great budget-friendly campground with solid amenities, easy lake access, and a peaceful atmosphere. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for affordable camping on Lake Sinclair.

Lake Rabun Beach Recreation Area and Campground
We had a group of 4 adults and 2 dogs in Site 1: well maintained grounds with ample water spigot access, trails around the lake with a swimming area, and quiet at night. The showers seem to be permanently "out of service" but that wasn't an issue for us.

Just pitched a day camp for a few hours. very nice dispersed camping. You’ll need to cross a small stream with your vehicle to get to the parking lot. The bottom of the stream is groomed for vehicle crossings, but you probably need a few extra inches of ground clearance I E SUV are similar.

Great campground, the dirt road to it is fairly well maintained so most vehicles will not have a problem driving there. It fills up fast on weekends when the weather is nice and there's no reservations so get there early if you want a spot.

Great campground but the best sites are taken up by the locals and held for their friends and relatives all season long. This campground needs to go on the reservation system to ensure fair access for all.

These campsites must be accessed by walking across the bridge over the creek from the parking lot and can require up to a 1/4 mile walk.

Sweet, decently-kept car camping site. There are sites with and without hookups available (sites without hookups are tent-only). I like to go in autumn, when the camp is lightly populated and cooler.
One correction/clarification: As a US Forest Service campground, pets are allowed (on leashes) most everywhere here; however, they're not allowed on the beach area, which is clearly marked.

A hidden gem, The Pocket Campground is adjacent to Johns Mountain and located on a tributary of John's Creek that winds around the camping area. Heavily wooded sites offer more privacy than most developed camping areas.
The campsite has 26 spots with short paved aprons and gravel tent pads. Each campsite has a picnic table, fire ring with grill, and lantern post. Water is available throughout the site from communal spigots, but there are no RV hookups. No Electricity.
Bathrooms are flush toilets with sinks and were clean and stocked when we visited. The ranger in charge was nice and pointed out a few nearby hikes and landmarks for us.
Less than 2 miles away is Keown Falls, a beautiful and easy 2-mile hike great for kids!

Lake Conasauga is popular, and often the overflow campground area is a necessity if you show up later than 8 pm on Friday. While it's rustic, and not as pretty as the main camping area, it's got great night views of the stars, and much better suited for groups.
