We had made reservations for a site that met our needs but received a call 3 days before we arrived stating that they had given that site to another customer and after 15 minutes of looking for a site, they assigned us a spot that ended up being a 30 amp. Upon arrival we hooked up to that spot and it caused the breaker to blow. Reset the breaker and it blew again. The next site we moved to was listed as 50 amp however there was an electrical problem and we were not receiving 50 amps, and therefore, had no a/c (88 degrees). The 3rd site did have 50 amps and cable TV;- however, that was 5 hours later. This was the worst camping experience we have ever had. The pool is not open, there are no activities, most sites have no picnic tables nor a fire ring. Their advertisement is very deceiving. Beware. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Campground is one of the few in this area..makes a good overnight stop. A little run down, my guess is it once was a KOA...sites are very close together. Bathrooms clean but need refurbishing. Pool permanently closed. Staff in office very pleasant. Very quiet, no road noise. We will stay here again if in this area. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This campground is a great stop over point along I-85 at Commerce. We were traveling on a holiday weekend and were able to stay with no reservations at a very reasonable rate. The campground is 2 miles from the highway and the access road is also an easy drive. Commerce offers gas, restaurants, stores, and entertainment. Very few of the sites are shaded, but the sites are level and can accomodate big rig RVs with tow vehicles. The pool was closed during our stay, but there is a large covered pavillion next to a playgroud and open grassy field. We enjoyed the peacefulness of our stay--no highway noise and a quiet campground. This campground is a great stopover point if you are headed to Orlando or if you are headed to the North Carolina mountains. We will use this campground as a stopover point again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We camped here 5 nights, choosing this campground from the campground directory. We were disappointed as we expected Wi-Fi, picnic table on site as well as fire ring. We had no TV other than our antenna. All was listed in the directory. Regardless of our disappointment, we enjoyed our stay in this area, will probably not return to this campground again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Positives: Close to the interstate, but far enough away to be quiet. Very friendly and pleasant staff. Easy entry/exit. Negatives: Very tight between camp sites. Not enough room to put out canopy. Lots of landscaping needed. No WiFi available. Cable access appears to be from a satellite feed, and just a couple channels. We used this park for a quick overnight stay on our way south, and it served that purpose quite well. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Very secluded and quiet. The pool was very clean. Restrooms were not immaculate but passable. The area could have used some landscaping work. Very quiet and casual setting. I agree there are many permanent people there which was a turn-off. Close to the outlet malls, Wal-Mart and local huge flea market. If you are looking for a place that is quiet, laid back with a pool this is your place. Nothing fancy just affordable and quiet. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This parks Electrical power is poor. You cannot run a regular Microwave on the 30 amp sites. They have several Satellite TV channels but the picture quality is poor and the volume is set too low. They cater to a lot of local workers (several who seem to have been there a LONG time, like years) and who like to start their trucks at 5:00 AM even on Saturdays and Sundays. The managers act like they can barely tolerate you and wish you had stayed some where else. You have barely enough room to open your awning on the 30 amps sites. Would be OK place to grab a few hours sleep, but the local Wally World would probably be quieter. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Roads, trees and sites are poorly maintained. Office is unmanned -- self check-in. Security is questionable -- a guard drives through periodically. Campground is difficult to get into and even more difficult to get out of. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Tucked behind Craven Pottery this is a nice place to stay while traveling through the area. Sites are paved and will handle the big rigs. Check in/out was done on the honor system - cash or check only. Reserved sites were clearly marked so somebody does a daily check on the campground. Many trees so don't expect your satellite TV to work...cable would have been nice. A small stream runs by some of the sites. No playground or pool or amenities for children. Pets allowed. A good overnight stop or a place to stay while shopping at the local outlet malls. Didn't see any security services but there were no problems. A little noise from I-85. We would stay here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Located off of I85 exit 149 north of Atlanta directly behind "The Pottery", which is a large retailer of pottery, housewares, decorations, plants, lawn/garden furniture. Also located close by, Tanger Outlets (just about every conceivable retailer) and a Super Wal-Mart, along with a sundry of resturaunts. This is the place to stay if you want to shop! The CG has paved interior roads, concrete pad & patios and each site has a fireplace/grill, concrete picnic table and light post with an on/off switch (low level lighting adds a nice ambiance to the night. We enjoyed our stay here and will definitely return. Our stay was in the fall of the year and the ground was completely covered in leaves, so I would imagine that in the summer there is plenty of shade.
I'm giving an 8 only for the lack of amenities (pool, cable TV, ect). We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

This is a great place to stay if you are going to UGA sporting events, about a 20 minute
drive. There are several outlet malls within a mile, also. Lots of restaurants. Security was great too. The only real drawback was that there were so many trees, we couldn't get a satellite dish shot out. The nicest paios that I've seen, each had a nice large rock fireplace/grill combo and a porch light. Pick the campground option on the website. It is behind a large pottery outlet store. We camped here in a Motorhome.
