What a great location to just walk right over and hike the gorge trails, lovely views along the way! The campground is in a great location, well kept up, a nice clean laundry on premises. No camp store to speak of, just a small booth. The campsites are spacious enough, but not private at all. We had a long pull through site, but it was very open to the sites above and below so as to give no one any privacy. We would go again as it's a perfect spot to visit the gorge.

We reserved site 44 at the Tallulah Gorge State Park campground. While researching the site and looking up reviews, we knew that it was going to be a wonky site.
It did not disappoint. It’s not advertised as a pull through, but the asphalt does go all the way through. The hook ups are in a weird place, so if you parked on the asphalt – your water and power lines would have to go under the rig to reach. It's almost like this site should be tent only.
The site is in no way level!!!
Having a 24’ RV was a blessing at this point. We wiggled onto the gravel pad so that our bed window looked at the woods, but our door would be facing away from the rest of the site. We made it work. If you have a trailer, be prepared to get out all the blocks to be level!!
The campground as a whole is small, which makes it an easy walk back to the check in building.
The bathrooms were ok. Seen better, seen worse. No critters, very few bugs. Shower had hot water. No place to set down clothes or put shampoo or soap. Two hooks to hang things from.

We stayed here early-mid August, 2023. Our price reflects the senior discount & is an average over our 4 nights. The park is really cool - I did the North Rim & South Rim Trails. A bit hot for me to do the suspension bridge... The visitor center is wonderful with loads of interesting information.
The campground however (after staying at Vogel which has been completely renovated) is a bit sad. Sites are super close to each other and was just packed with people over the weekend. Not quite our style. The sites are gravel and some need some gravel re-fills. Erosion has made some little ditches and dips. My brother stayed here several months ago and had to use 4wd to back in to his site to connect or he would spray gravel. We had a long pull-through, but the firepit in the site behind us was literally 6' from our trailer (and our trailer is less than 22'). Just not our style. As others have said, pick your site wisely.
A few good things nearby: dog park S of Clayton, Super Wal-Mart in Clayton, Blue Ridge Honey (yum) and a day trip to Black Rock Mountain State Park

The park was nice. Good trails. Clean, hot showers with pressure. But the sites were bad. We had site 44 and had to be moved to the emergency site, which is site 2. Site 44 should be a tent site and nothing more. Low hanging close trees with a SEVERE incline. We have a small 25-foot RV and couldn't make it work. The staff said they have problems all the time with people not being able to use it.
Site 2 wasn't much better. It was more level, but very small and hard to get into because of trees.
Not many sites looked easy to get in. We did see a couple of larger RVs in sites. Some I don't see how they did it! One is afraid of pulling out. Said he had to REALLY work it to get in but is afraid of trying to get out because of the trees.
We really enjoyed the trails at the park, but we won't stay here again. Maybe stay at another park and just use the day pass to hike.
There is an additional $5 car parking fee that is not included in your site fee and everyone must pay it.
There is absolutely no internet at the park. My Verizon hotspot did work though. There is also no over the air TV service.
The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Our site was very close to the nice clean bath house. the site was fairly level but the site are all close together. There are several great hikes here with some right from the campground. Lots of stairs on some hikes to the bottom of the gorge.

Sites are VERY close together. Although there are deciduous trees between sites, there is no understory for privacy. The trees can be an issue in finding a lever place on the site. #32 was ok in this respect, but #29 was not.
After four nights at campground never saw the host.
Site only had a cursory cleaning. There were a lot of food wrappers, bottle caps etc around the small site. Bathrooms were fine. Showers were hit but not a lot of pressure.
Best aspect of the Park is the trail system. Several interconnecting trails. Ones along the Gorge are crowded, but once away, there’s some peace and quiet.

We had site 3, that is long but fairly narrow and has two trees flanking the entry, so it was like threading a needle with the camper to back it in. We have a 25’ travel trailer. If you aren’t good at backing in don’t choose this spot, nor if your camper is longer.
Finding a good spot to park it was a challenge. The hookups are at the far end corner of the site. We tried putting the camper part way back but the stairs couldn’t come out because they would hit the cement picnic table. Too far forward seemed unlevel, so we just put the camper back as far as it would go, a bit askew and lived with the fact that the front of the trailer was about 18” from the picnic table.
The campground was glorious with fall foliage!! As was the entire area. We did lots of great hikes in a 1.5 hr radius. We were just back most nights for dinner.
Most sites seemed quite narrow with similar issues with the darn immovable cement tables too close to the campers.
Across from us at 5 &6 they had their trucks up over 6” to get level.
Overall a nice place to use for exploring the surrounding area. Not enough space and privacy in most of the spots for me to enjoy the campsite all day long.

Hiking at Tallulah Gorge was amazing. Many falls to see. Hiking to base of falls requires 1062 stairs. We were here mid week in May. Weather was perfect and crowds low. Campground not full. Access to campground right off highway. Campground roads are narrow and windy. Our premium pull thru site #40 was easily accessed from road but very narrow. It sloped at from and back giving minimal “level” area to put 35’ 5er. Even using all of our leveling blocks it was still hard to get camper level but we finally managed. Left slide out was about 9” from tree and right slide was over edge of unmovable concrete picnic table bench making that side inaccessible. Many of the back in sites like much roomier. I would suggest choosing one of those. .

Camp site was clean and thought the overall site was very well managed. Bathrooms and showers were well maintained. The couple that managed the place were friendly and informative. This camp site is better than numerous places that I’ve visited at many National and State Parks. If this represents the rest of Georgia, thumbs up and keep up the great work. We stayed in 2 tents and my only ding is the campsite was heavily slopped, making tent camping a challenge. Tallulah Gorge is a great state park. We hiked the entire gorge and would recommend it.

One worthy note the water comes out smelling like bleach and would on and off again look like muddy water. We had bottled water to drink but now I will have to sanitize my water system.
