The falls were very beautiful and definitely worth stopping for however the campground was not our style. We had booked 3 nights for site 43 but stayed only 1 because of the atmosphere. The sites are much too close together, we were surrounded by other sites, front, back and both sides, all in the open, with zero privacy. No complaints about the closest bathroom besides having to walk through another campsites to get to it. We opted to go Indian Springs about 9 miles away, was worth the move. We would also add the park staff deserve 5 stars, they went above and beyond, provided lots of great info and were helpful despite our early departure.

Nice park. The bathroom light is on a timer but if you walk in when the light is on you wouldn't know this. So my husband was in the shower when the lights went out. Please upgrade to motion sensor!!! The rv sites are nicely spaced and flat. We didn't experience the primitive sites. We saw a lot of birds. Roosters crow at crack of dawn. Hiking trails are very well maintained. The falls are impressive! Nice firepits. Very nice playground and good area for dogs. Staff was excellent and registration was a breeze.

Lake side camping is small but quiet. Shade trees and on the lake. Beautiful damn and a short walk to the falls. Sugar ants are a problem. Several small.focks but too wooded to really fish from bank. Did not do well fishing. We camped at 112 and it was a good spot for out pup trailor.

We camped here for a week and loved our visit. We had a spacious site (almost everyone does!) surrounded by woods. They have both 30 and 50 amp sites but most are 30. It is not full hook up but does have gray water dump sites throughout the campground. The restrooms were very clean and heated, if needed. We stayed at the river view campground. It is located across the street from the lake view campground and the park entrance. We drove through the lake view campground and the sites are a bit smaller so they are perfect for small campers and tents. It is very shaded and has a limited view of the lake. We did all the trails at the park. They have 3 short trails that say are easy but more towards the moderate skill level. The trails run along a great river and waterfalls! It was beautiful. There is a swimming pool and mini golf, too but they were closed when we went in March. The lake is beautiful with a dam nearby and lots of picnic spots. This park is only a 1 1/2 mile from I-75 so very easy to get to and worth the stop! If you are only stopping for a bit, do the waterfalls trail which starts across the street from the entry gate and picnic by the dam.

The park itself is nice. I don't know whether or not it's because they are short-staffed, but the people who vacated the campsite just prior to our arrival had dumped their gray water all over our site. We are not allowed to put our tent on the grass so we had to put a tarp down first then our tent. After 4 nights of damp damp damp when we pulled up stakes, our tarp (brand new out of the package) and our tent (brand new out of its' bag) both STUNK of urine. Very disappointed in the lack of overseeing the property.

My daughter and I walked the trail with her dog. The trail is definitely not accessible to strollers. I also wouldn't recommend young children unless you are willing to carry them for most of it. The trail was marked well, but there were some areas with tree roots, rocks, and some areas where you needed long legs to get down a few steps. Otherwise, it was a nice little hike and the falls were beautiful. There is a $5 parking fee, which was fine. There is a camping area in the park which seemed to have a lot of amenities, but we didn't use them.

This was our first time heading south from Atlanta to see waterfalls. Lots of them up north but just a few south (I think). Very picturesque. Park car in the state park lot (need annual pass or pay $5). Trail is across the street. Very short 10 minute walk to falls. Trail has lots of large rocks/boulders. But there are handrails for a lot of it. Don’t forget to observe the dam from the the parking lot.

There is a lot to do at this park, only $5 for parking. Unfortunately because of the virus the following are closed; trading post gift shop, boat rentals, swimming pool and I believe some of the other viewing access areas. All we did was walk around park and walk on the nature trail. It is a short trail that is very steep at some points. Great wildflowers and foliage. The viewing of the waterfalls was amazing. Camping area still open as well as picnic areas. Nearby attractions; whimsical botanical gardens (free) and dauset trails (free). You can’t beat that plus they are both less than 20 min away. Sad to say they are both closed due to virus. I was fortunate I was able to go a few years back.

I visited on a Saturday and the park was not very crowded. The first hike I did was along the falls, which is in a figure 8. The lower part is along the water with a number of beautiful vistas, but it’s rocky & has many roots so it’s more treacherous than the upper path. On the other side of the river is the Heritage Trail, which is great for families because it’s a wide boardwalk that leads to ruins of a powerhouse. The views are good, but you’re further away from the water on this side. At the end of that trail, I crossed the road to the 2-mile tranquil trail through the woods. I recommend this park for the great hikes & water views.

There is plenty 9of parking for day use visitors which we were. Plenty of picnic spots and parking. There are several trails that are either easy or a little more demanding. Our dog was allowed on the trail. Beautiful views. Only cost $5 for the parking fee and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Which yurt offers most privacy and best view of lake?
Written January 17, 2021
Sorry I can't answer that - we were there for just a day trip as we weren't impressed with the camping here. Camped at Indian Springs instead.
Written January 18, 2021
There is no water inside the yurt, but there is a faucet near the front door. We found the water was fine for drinking, and it was handy for doing dishes and rinsing kids. It is just cold water.

Any grocery stores or markets close to the park?
Thank you

Yes, a couple exits down. Probably a 20 minute drive or less.

Yurts have beds, couches and some other assorted furniture. Bedding is not supplied. So you need sheets, pillows and anything you might use on a bed. If you are going to eat there you will need food and some way to prepare it.Yurts have ceiling fans and wall heaters. They are basically just a place to sleep.They do have electricity inside.
