Our Take
What makes DOLL MOUNTAIN CAMPGROUND special
Tucked into the rolling folds of the North Georgia Mountains, Doll Mountain Campground sits along the emerald shores of Carters Lake, one of the deepest reservoirs in the state. Just 70 miles north of Atlanta, this Army Corps of Engineers campground offers a genuine mountain escape without the long drive. The surrounding ridgelines are blanketed in hardwood and pine, and the lake itself is refreshingly undeveloped, with no private docks or lakefront homes to interrupt the view. The campground features roughly 60 sites, many of them perched on wooded hillsides with partial lake views. Most sites accommodate tents and RVs alike, with electric and water hookups, picnic tables, and fire rings. A boat ramp sits nearby, making this a favorite among anglers chasing spotted bass, largemouth, and walleye. Swimming is available at a designated beach area, and the surrounding Chattahoochee National Forest provides miles of hiking and mountain biking trails. Spring and fall are the prime seasons here, when the mountain air is crisp and the leaf color transforms the ridgelines. Summer weekends fill fast, so reservations are strongly recommended, especially from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Winter camping is quieter but still rewarding for those who enjoy solitude and cool-weather fishing. Doll Mountain is the kind of place that reminds you why you started camping in the first place.
