Comfortable camping clothes
If you are interested in camping, please know there is a 2-night minimum at this campground. You can reserve a campsite at 706-754-0292. Let the office know you are with the “Barnett Wedding’ so they can find you a campsite nearby. There are some cheaper, more primitive tent/hammock sites available as well. However, they are about a 5 minute walk to the bathhouse. There is also camping available at Tallulah Gorge State Park, a few miles down the highway.
