As others have said Robert and Melissa are what make this resort - Extremely friendly and people oriented. The resort is a 10+ secluded in the mountains about 5 miles from Helen. New paved roads, level concrete pads with plenty of shade. Cable TV channel selection is abundant. Excellent fast Wi-Fi. Easy in and out with minimum or no road noise. We will be back. The daily rate quoted is based on Camp Club USA. Melissa sold us the membership. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed here 1/2 of the week of Thanksgiving, but checked out on Wednesday to drive further north. I wish we would have stayed here longer because it was so fabulous. There were a lot of children here for my daughter to play with, and the place was impeccably cleaned. The owners - Robert & Melissa, make this place what it is. They are friendly and hospitable. Robert came around with his golf cart and delivered firewood, checked on us frequently and even took the various kids for rides to see the upper portion of the property. We will most definitely stay here again and again! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Robert and Mellisa are wonderful hosts/managers. They helped with local points of interest. Sites are wide enough for our 36' motorhome with 2 slides. Sites have tree/shrub barriers between sites for added privacy. WiFi and cable are included in price (unusual) with great reception for both. They also have 3 2-story cabins with 3 bedrooms and deck each unit has a hot-tub in the master bedroom. Very romantic setting and excellently furnished. We will return to this campground. We camped here in a Motorhome.
This is a great park. The hosts are very friendly and helpful. We stayed for a week and enjoyed every minute of our stay. We had car problems, th host assisted us in finding a repair shop to diagnose the problem with our Honda. The hostess is an expert with helping you back into your site. They are very nice people. They are eager to assist you with anything, suggestions on things to do and directions. We loved the quiet, beautiful, well kept resort. We plan to stay with them anytime we visit Helen GA. Highly recommend to any one looking for a small park with the best hosts in the campground industry. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Stayed here thanksgiving weekend. Campground was rather small. Not much of an area for kids to ride bikes. Campground was clean. Bath house was clean, and owners were very friendly. A peaceful campground where I would stay again, but only for a night. Somewhat over-priced for what you get. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Nice location; ample sites; friendly and helpful management. Bathrooms and showers are primitive, small, cold and unattractive, but seem to be seldom used since most visitors have larger motorhomes and presumably use their own facilities. Sewer connection is too far away for some smaller campers to use, depending on the location and length of hose. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Really a nice park. Do not be intimidated when driving in it is big rig friendly. The owners are on scene with personalized service. Restrooms, showers, and laundry are OK, but need some renovation. This is probably the best rv park in the area. We camped here in a Motorhome.
We stayed at Creekwood for 2 nights. The campground was clean, neat and all utilities were in perfect working order. The owners greeted us when we arrived and even knew who we were based on our rig! I have never been to such a friendly campground. There is an area for volley ball and horse shoes but no pool. There are also 3 nice rental cabins on the property. We camped here in a Motorhome.

In 2 years I have logged 33,000 miles on my 40ft motorhome. I have been to a lot of RV parks but Creekwood is at the top of my list. I have been to this park quite a few times in the past year and it just keeps getting better. Anyone going to the Helen area would not find a better atmosphere to stay than Creekwood. One thing that disappoints me though. After leaving Creekwood I have started to expect the same service elsewhere and I rarely find it. Creekwood is a must place to stay if you are in the Helen area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I loved this campground. It was shaded and cool on a creek. The owners are very nice, very accommodating. The park is very clean and well kept. However, although it has an excellent cable service, we could not use our cell phone at all. The park does not have a pool, but the cleanliness and the attention to detail by the owners more than made up for it. It is a little further out of town than I would have liked also. Also the best of all there were no permanents living in the park. It is strictly for campers. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Family oriented campground with immaculate facilities. Owners are friendly and there are no permanent campers. Situated just far enough from town to be pleasant. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a small, but very nice campground. The owners are great hosts. You feel like a guest in a 5 star resort. Melissa met us at the entrance, led us to the site and helped us back in. Very convenient to downtown Helen. Will certainly go back to Creekwood on our next trip to the area. Wi-Fi was not yet operating but owners say it soon will be. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
A very nice privately run campground. the owners live on site and were friendly and made the stay enjoyable. All sites have trees and ample shade. The nearby town of Helen had lots to see and do. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is a great little campground convenient to Helen and the north Georgia mountains. Robert and Melissa are fantastic hosts and really go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Some of the sites are a little small, so be sure to tell them the length of your rig when you make reservations. The campground is immediately adjacent to the highway, so there is a little traffic noise during the day; things quiet down nicely after dark. Each site has a level concrete pad for your rig and a gravel area with picnic table. My site did not have an outdoor grill, so check with the hosts to see if your site has one. This is a great alternative to the nearby state park, and has the additional amenity of sewer connections and cable TV. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Owners are very helpful and extremely nice. The campground is in the process of being repaved and new pads poured. Sites are level and not too close together. Very clean campground, bathhouses and laundry. Enjoyed our stay and will go back again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
What a friendly park, the owners met us in driveway, helped unhook car and show us to site. Just wonderful folks!! Park has great sites, very clean and well maintained. We loved the town, Helen, and just love the whole area. Everyone was so friendly. Thanks for a great stay, we will be back. We camped here in a Motorhome.
I have stayed at Creekwood twice this year. The owners live on site and go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. This is a great campground in an area that is great to visit. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very, very nice. Adequate site but not very deep - had to park truck sideways to get it off the road. Beautiful/clean pool and huge activity building. Large cable selection, wireless and gated security. Staff very helpful.This is a member park but offered a complementary stay. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
This is an excellent 5 star RV resort. You have to be a member but if you are looking to
own a deed to a resort this is the place. 2 swimming pools one with a water fall in it. Great clubhouse 2 stories with 2 pool tables and tables for card games. Large screen tv upstairs. Management is extremely friendly and helpful. Only drawbacks is the lots are small in most spots and you can't have a campfire on your site. There are firerings located throughout the resort where campers can gather around the fire. This resort is very well maintained. 5 star rating is definetly deserved. We may join the resort but are venturing out to check out the state parks in GA and Alabama right now. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
I stayed here for three nights Thursday-Sunday. The park was fairly quiet and only moderately filled the first night and the second day; however, Friday night the campground filled up with lots of kids and loud adults. The children seemed to be, for the most part, unsupervised as they were running through campsites and yelling. I don't know if it's like this every weekend in the summer, but it was quite annoying. The park itself is located in a convenient location very near Helen, GA for shopping and dining. There are several miles of trails to hike all with trailheads within the park. The lake is stocked with fish and there are also paddle boats for rent and a swimming beach. There are two different campground sections, one of which includes a separate tent section. The sites are close together with not a lot of privacy. The scenery from the campground is of other campsites - no views at all. The roads are in good condition and paved and moderately wide to allow big rigs. The personnel all were friendly and helpful. Bathrooms and grounds were exceptionally clean. The lodge located in the park has a restaurant with good food. All in all, the park is decent, but I probably won't come back to this one anytime soon. I will rate it a bit higher than it appears in my write-up, simply because I understand there are some who prefer this type of atmosphere- i.e. families with children, etc. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Great park! We had full hook ups, with lots of trees around. The bathrooms were clean and warm. They even had some activities going on for the kids on the weekend and some great bluegrass music Saturday night. Beautiful foliage and Octoberfest was fun. We will definably be back during the summer. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
We loved it. It was peaceful and very family oriented. We left Jenny's Creek due to the poor condition of the park and was very glad we did. The only thing we were upset about was the fact that we did not move sooner. Would recommend this to any one. The only down side was it was hard to get my camper into the site. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
Helen, Ga is a great area, and park was well kept and clean, although we had a little problems with ants. Rangers and camp hosts were very friendly and helpful. Will be back here come next Oct. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Unicoi is a very nice state park in Northeast Georgia. All of the sites are terraced on hill-sides which can make backing in a bit tricky. The sites have the usual table and fire ring and the sewer sites back to a small brook. The camp host was friendly and helpful. The surrounding area is quite beautiful, especially the loop following routes 17, 180, and 384 going by Brasstown Bald (GA's highest peak). The park has a lodge with a reasonably priced restaurant. We plan to go back--Fall should be beautiful here. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This is our very favorite place to camp. We always stay here every year. We don't feel that their rules are out of line. As far as scooters go, as long as it has a tag no problems. As far as Cingular, I had no problems getting out from the inside or outside of our motorhome. Some of the sites can be close but we're usually running around the area doing and seeing things. The only thing I would do different as a camp host is greet each camper and let them know where I was located and would help in any way I could. We never saw the camp hosts, but not important. We have already made our reservations for next year. We camped here in a Motorhome.
What a great campground! Bath house was recently remodeled and my kids had plenty to do. In fact, the campfire program supplied the fixings for smores and had an audience participation story that was a lot of fun. Very close to Anna Ruby falls and Helen. We are planning a return trip soon! We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
Our camper club had a group trip here over Easter. Six families. The park staff was very helpful getting our group in sites together. The park is beautiful, sites are kinda small for Ga state parks and the road while paved is narrow. The negatives were the Park ranger was very rude Saturday night, we were up talking and yes it was past 10:00 and we might have been a little loud but it was just adult conversation, no screaming ect. Instead of him just asking us politely to hold it down he told us we all needed to "go to bed". Sunday the militant campground host hounded us promtly at 1:00 PM to leave or pay for another night. There was no one waiting, we were all packed and ready to go. There is no excuse for rudeness from Park Rangers or a campground host. I have never experienced this before in a Ga State Park. Our group probably will not return because of the rude Ranger and Camp Host. We camped here in a Motorhome.
Our family reunions have taken place at this park for the past 2 years. It is a beautiful place, very woodsy, rustic, huge trees, nice lake, streams, hiking trails and all located close to the quaint city of Helen, Ga. We truly enjoy our visits there but, this year, the campground host for our area was very negligent in greeting, assisting folks coming in. It's a shame, after all, the host gets a free campsite and should be friendly and helpful, neither of which this one was. We would stay there again, since the hosts change all of the time. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
This park has lots to offer, too much in fact. I get the idea that it trying to be a resort location rather than a campground. The sites are assigned when you check in by some sort of color coding scheme. We had a difficult time finding a sight in our assigned color that would fit our camper, and a pop up is not that big. Even during the week the campground had a very crowded feel to it. Fortunatly none of our "neighbors" were the type to use flood lights, so it was at least dark. The newer restrooms / showers were in good condition and clean. I can't say the same for some of the older buildings. If you prefer a site that has more of a theme park feel than a quiet camping experience this may be the place for you. There were lots of planned activities offered every night and I'm told that the restaurant is very good. We camped here in a Tent Trailer.
We spent two nights here during a visit to north Georgia. If you like rules, this is your park. Besides the rules brochure, there are huge rule signs everywhere. Don't plan on picking up dead wood for the fire, against the rules. No scooters of any kind are allowed. This may just be GA State Parks in general. We had a full hook-up site. Those are closer together than the water/electric only sites. Still, we were about 30 to 40 feet from our next door neighbor. There was a little stream behind our site. The site was gravel with a little dirt, and fairly level. There are lots of planned activities. The kids got to pan for gold at the campground activity center. They also have a nice store right in the campground. There are three major camping areas, two of which are near the store. There is also a lake and lots of hiking trails. There is also a tent area. Despite having so many rules to follow, this is a very nice park and we enjoyed our stay. During our stay, we visited Helen, Georgia, a small German town that is just a few minutes drive away. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.
Very nice wooded/mountain campground. Restroom facilities are clean and adequate. The park, including the lodge and cabins, are well run and maintained. Most sites are semi-secluded and although they are on a hill, they are fairly level. Not a good park for a first-time camping trip in a large RV due to maneuverability issues on the narrow, winding roads, but someone with medium-level driving experience could handle it. Most sites seem big enough to accomodate large rigs with slide-outs, but I would check for availability. They will allow a tent and an RV to share a larger site if you request it. My experience with this park is that it is not one for heavy socializing, most campers keep to themselves although everyone seemed friendly. Great place for hiking, and lots of site-seeing and activities in the surrounding area/towns. Office staff and rangers are very helpful and accomodating. In a positive way, they do not hesitate to enforce the rules of the park. They receive an 9 out of 10 rating only because they should probably increase the size of some of the sites for the newer, larger RVs, and they do not offer the more modern amenties like phone/cable. We camped here in a camper.
