The camp host was not a very nice person. No patience whatsoever.

We had a tree fall on our truck while we were there. The camp hosts, wildlife people were great. It did take a very long time for Clay county sheriffs office to send a deputy but it wasnt an emergency. Campground and bathrooms are clean. The bathroom doors slam shut and that could be dangerous for fingers and doors slamming are very loud at night!

It is more rustic than I like, but it's good.

We camped at C89 and C90, these sites are fantastic, they are lower down and feel private as they are surrounded by trees. Conveniently they also had a small path between them so it's fantastic when camping together with friends and family.

The campsite spots were spacious and shaded and very comfortable. The bathrooms are basic but clean and functional. And we really enjoyed being able to walk down the hill and jump into the lake. Also having bike trails right there made for a fun-filled vacation without having to drive anywhere.

Stop the sites from being rented r only weekends or a Fri. & Sat., the good sites need to e for 4 or more days.

Love this campground as its an hour and a half drive and on a lake. Most campsites are well maintained and have lots of trees, keeping the sun from bearing down. Bathrooms are decent. Wish that people had more respect of their fellow campers. Had to walk down two campsites and ask some people to lower their voices at 2 AM! Another ran their generator all night. Another let their dog bark for hours. And there are boats playing loud music late into the night or bass boats roaring into the cove at 5-6 AM. That cove should be closed to motor boat traffic.Its best to camp during the week as boat traffic is less and people are less obnoxious.

We were able to get a lake front spot A5. It was very nice and shady. Our camp spot was pretty big too. We did have to walk down a little trail to get to the lake. We had a great week camping. Bell Mountain and Brasstown Bald are both a must see.

Great, peaceful and clean campground!
@MarkD7704923 · Camped on Jun 28, 2025 at Campsite #19
Great campground but the host does little. I messed up my schedule and thought I had an additional night. The host never came by to tell me my reservation was up. The next camper arrived at 6 pm and said I was on his site. Should not have happened.
@KaytlynF921449 · Camped on Jun 28, 2025 at Campsite #73
Great spot, beautiful campground
@AliciaL8801162 · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #66
Perfect !!
@KIMBERLYP32336 · Camped on Jun 27, 2025 at Campsite #22
Campground was beautiful. Bathrooms were clean. We stayed in spot 23 which was the perfect spot with kids who wanted to swim all day. Campsite is on the water with a mini beach. The only thing I wished our site had were some stairs from the car to the tent/picnic area. We have T-Mobile and service was good.
@TracyA4518351 · Camped on Jun 25, 2025 at Campsite #52
Stayed in site 52 Loop B. Beautiful view. Could swim from site. Had a great two night stay in our tent.

gr8 place.... amazing camp host
@JayC7170948 · Camped on Jun 5, 2025 at Campsite #12
This is one of my favorite campgrounds. My family and I camp here every year. We always get a different campsite and it is always a good campsite. My favorite thing to do is ride my mountain bike on the trails.
@BradS9486590 · Camped on May 30, 2025 at Campsite #42
This camp site as of 5/25 needs improvement. Tent pad is old and slanted, picnic table is concrete , not level and was in a mud puddle. Needs a revamp like the campsite next to this one.
@LizS2369221 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #91
Beautiful location, lake access, tons of free range kids that roam around and entertain your kids, mountain bike trails -- what more could you ask for?
@ScottT9337491 · Camped on May 23, 2025 at Campsite #95
Great location for a group camping trip. My only complaints are not taking care of poison ivy right next to tent pads and the hand dryer in the men's bathroom in loop C has never worked in the almost 15 years I've been visiting.
@SharonP8660185 · Camped on May 17, 2025 at Campsite #57
Campground was beautiful and clean. Our site was amazing and the campground hosts were very nice as the checked on the campground a few times while we were there. Bathrooms were nice and clean. Thank you!
@LauraR9755561 · Camped on May 16, 2025 at Campsite #24
The campground staff was friendly and helpful. The campground was clean and taken care of. Beach and swim area were tons of fun for the kids. There were both shallow and deep areas. Kids enjoyed fishing at the campsite.
@AmandaM8429553 · Camped on May 15, 2025 at Campsite #68
This was a very unpleasant stay due to the other campground guests' dogs that produced incessant and unbelievably loud screams. They were a couple campsites down from me on either side and it absolutely ruined my experience. Why bring your dog and make them miserable? Happy and relaxed dogs don't make those kind of sounds for hours upon hours. I left early, because of the other guests. Please don't be selfish. If your dog doesn't enjoy it, and you don't respect your neighbors, then just stay home.
@JoyS8271214 · Camped on May 15, 2025 at Campsite #58
Beautiful campsites. Clean facilities. Cant wait to go back.
@RichardE734484 · Camped on May 11, 2025 at Campsite #18
Campground was great, solar worked well in trailer so we were very comfortable. Cell service was very good. The only downside was the weather - rain every day! But that is expected in the spring in the mountains. Looking forward to next trip to JR, and can then experience the bike trails and kayaking.

I just used PerfectCamp.com to book six consecutive August nights at the most popular campsite in one of the most popular campgrounds in Humboldt Redwoods State Park in California. That is not anything I could have accomplished anywhere else with the ease I did here! Thank you, PerfectCamp! I LOVE this site! You will find me on several other camping sites but the design, format, functionality, and personality of this the best. It’s fresh and clean.

Wow! Woke up this morning to a notification that a favorite had opened at Paulina, and when I went to check, it was there. This membership just paid for itself in the first 24 hours I owned it. Couldn't take the site it conflicted with a trip already set, but it truly was there. Thanks Tons.
