Moccasin Creek State Park, Clarkesville , GA

[halrkent (Deceased)]

Moccasin Creek is in the Blue Ridge Mountains on the shores of lovely 2,800-acre Lake Burton. We visited the park July 21-27, 2010 with other members of our local camping club. It’s a small park with just 32 acres and 55 campsites at $28.00 per night. Georgia offers 20% discount to those over age 62. This park is one of the most popular in Georgia so reservations are a must. Despite its mountain location, the park is relatively flat, offering easy navigation for large RVs. A fully accessible fishing pier sits above a trout-filled creek open only to physically challenged visitors, senior citizens (65 & over) and children (up to 11 years). Tour the adjacent trout hatchery, hike on several nearby mountain trails (many with waterfalls) or simply relax in this peaceful setting.

Hal, thanks for the info, it's always great when members post about campgrounds that members have liked.

I enjoy writing about the different campgrounds we visit. I hope there will be a Southern Cardinal Rally soon. We really enjoyed the Chattanooga rally last year.
I think this forum thread would be more useful if we listed the campgrounds visits by State. I know you can do a search but if just want to browse, a by State list seems logical.
Thanks
Hal
