For Fort Mountain State Park: Pro: Beautiful campground with large, level camping spots. Great hiking trails that are well marked and easy to follow.
Con: We tow a 42’ fifth wheel. The lakeside campground is not made for campers longer than 35’. The roads are narrow, winding, and in poor shape. Our stabilizer jacks drug the ground going over some of the hills and around the narrow turns. We had to remove them to exit the campground. Larger campers should use the creek side campground.
The Chatsworth side mountain road is shorter with fewer switchback turns than the Ellijay side.

For Fort Mountain State Park: A nice state park campground literally on a mountain. The sites were nicely spaced. The road up and around the area is windy, but fine. We had zero service at our site, but could get at least messages in other parts of the campground and on the trails. We hiked most of the trails in the park and they were fun. About an hour to Amicolola and 15 minutes to the nearest town. Having a small and inexpensive laundry was also a nice plus!

For Fort Mountain State Park: Great state park, well maintained sites and restrooms. No sewer, but had water/electric. Better be on your A game to drive through the park with your trailer. AT&T and Verizon very spotty.

For Fort Mountain State Park: We stayed 2 nights in a 35' class A with a toad. Level pull through. Well maintained campground located in north Georgia mountains. Road from Chatsworth was steep and winding, as are most roads in this area. Be sure to take the short hike up to the fire tower and ancient stone wall. Don't miss the nearby overlook deck with a panoramic 80 mile view.

For Fort Mountain State Park: One of our favorite sites in NW GA. All are level sites, they have water, 30/50 amp hook-ups and cable. Cell service is spotty, but a great excuse to cut the wire for a weekend. There are grey water dumps about every 4th site which makes it nice if you need to tote or ducket carry off your tank. Black tank dump station is very easy to access on your way out with 2 dump stations available with water and trash disposal. Only one slight negative, is the lake loop RV road is in need of paving. Just take your time to miss the pot holes. There is a 17 acre lake with walking and hiking trials. You can rent a canoe or bring your own. Great little lake to fish in and there is a beach area for the kiddos to play and swim in warm weather.

For Fort Mountain State Park: Great campground. Great hiking. Beautiful in the fall. It is rustic but
I would have given it 5 stars if it had sewer.
