Get your tents, hiking boots, and other camping gear and get ready to enjoy Georgia nature this summer. As always, it’s always beautiful and always gorgeous! Check out these 10 amazing camp grounds in Georgia that will take your breath away:
- Amicalola State Park
Ryan McKee via Flickr Not only is this one of the most scenic nature parks in Georgia, it’s also a pretty comfortable camping spot. The camp grounds are equipped with electricity, water, picnic tables, grills and comfort stations with laundry on site.

- Andrews Cove Campground
ChattOconeeNF via Flickr Not as lush as Amicalola– but still just as scenic. Get some good trout fishing in and take a hike. Clean water and toilets are available at this campground.
- Bald Mountain Resort
Possum1500 via Flickr If you want to camp in style, check out this resort! It features multiple pools, a volleyball court, playgrounds and a lake for fishing. Of course, it also comes with all the basics, such as electricity, water and a fire ring.

- Bear Creek Trail

- Black Rock Mountain State Park
Courtney Mcgough via Flickr This park features some of the highest ground in Georgia, which makes for cooler temperatures. You can take in the majesty of the Blue Ridge Mountains, lakes, and streams while also taking advantage of the electricity and water at the campgrounds.

- Cloudland State Park
Jeff Gunn via Flickr This park is considered one of the best places for Georgia camping. Do you agree? They have multiple options for back country campers, and walkers as well. They host amenities such as restrooms, showers, fire rings, picnic tables, electricity and pit privys. With all that–plus the beauty of this park–it just can’t be beat!

- Desoto Falls Campground
iseethingsiseethemwithmyeyes via Flickr The ultra-dense forest has many creeks that are simply perfect for trout fishing! Pictured here is the upper falls which have no amenities, but the lower falls do have toilets, showers and parking.
- Fort Mountain State Park

They have the “First Time Camper Program” specifically designed for newbies. You can get out there and hike, bike, swim, or geocache.

- Magnolia Springs State Park

- Panola Mountain
