Unicoi Springs Camp Resort, Helen, GA



 We drove the RV from Bristol Tenn to Unicoi Springs Camp Resort in Helen, GA.  Most of the trip was on interstate highways, but when they ended the drive became interesting with some sharp mountain turns.  I joked with John that on a couple of curves I could see the rear of our coach going by us.

Unicoi Springs Camp Resort is nestled in the northeast Georgia mountains. The member-only resort was established in 1983. We won the $5,000 one-time membership-buy-in fee when we entered our name at the 2016 FMCA RV rally at Perry GA. Someone from the park called us a month after the rally to tell us we were the winners! We quickly paid the annual maintenance fee of $410 (which gives each owner up to 14 days of camping per month year 'round) and scheduled a two night stay to check it out. This is our second visit here and this time we are staying for 14 days.

We love this place! Unicoi Springs Camp Resort is rated a Five Star Resort by the Coast to Coast system and is right next to Unicoi Springs State Park. It has 300 sites with full hookups, cable tv, wi-fi, the resort has 2 well maintained pools, a play ground, a big rustic 2-story log clubhouse with two pool tables and lots of rocking chairs on the wrap-around porch, there is even a lovely chapel and full time resort security.   The very best part is it is just a short drive to downtown Helen GA.
