Known as the park "where spring spends the summer," Moccasin Creek is nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains on the shores of lovely 2,800-acre Lake Burton. Despite its mountain location, the park is relatively flat, offering easy navigation for large RVs, children's bicycles and wheelchairs. A fully accessible fishing pier sits above a trout-filled creek open only to physically challenged visitors, senior citizens and children. Tour the adjacent trout rearing station, hike on several nearby mountain trails or simply relax in this peaceful setting. The park's central location makes it a perfect jumping off spot for mountain exploration.
NOTICE:Effective with an arrival date of 9/8/09 and thereafter, the WATERVIEW and REGULAR campsites have been combined. This change will allow campers to select any available campsite (following check-in); reservation process will be simplified and consistent with other Georgia Parks; check-in time reduced, and greater flexibility in extending stays. Disability campsites may be reserved upon request.
