She has a wheelchair and I was happy to see the paths around us were all paved, so we were able to push her along them easily. We didn't venture onto any paths with elevation; the main path we chose followed the river and there were lots of areas to walk down to get a close up view or even wade if inclined. The path was shady also which was nice. I loved seeing the waterfall by the river right by the parking lot. This was a great time and I'd definitely return to explore some more paths or take a longer trek.

Very kid and dog friendly! The bathhouse is brand new, so lovely, and is the cleanest bathhouse I've ever been in at an RV park. The owners are some of the kindest people we've met in NC, super accommodating, ensured we liked our spot, and set up a picnic table and fire pit for us to use at the site. Truly the best Campground we've ever stayed at. I highly recommend staying here, whether for a night, a week, or for a long term!!!

It also is a short drive to many activities should you choose. A short drive to the quaint town of Murphy for vintage shopping, wine tasting, brewery and plenty of places to grab a bite. We highly recommend the fried pickles at Chevelle's! Owners, Jon and Eileen are so welcoming and always available if needed. New bathroom/showers will be finished by Spring 2024. We will be back in Spring!

Cooper Creek Campground is absolutely the most beautiful, off the beaten path, places I've ever…read moretraveled and it's practically in Atlanta's back yard! Located on the beautiful and noisy Cooper/Mulky Creek just an hour north of Dahlonega up Hwy 60 and then up some of the most beautiful and winding mountain roads that make you think you're never going to get there! By the time you turn on to Forest Service Rd 236 (a beautiful and peaceful dirt mountain road that climbs up through the pine and hardwood forests), you realize there is something amazing waiting for you. And there is. Cooper Creek Campground is like reaching a little slice of heaven. Fifteen campsites scatter through out the lush forest, and five of them sit right on the banks of Cooper/Mulky Creek. I advise getting there early during the week so you can get a creek side spot ... there is nothing like it! The creek is rocky and noisy and if you fish, the trout are plentiful! I walked the loop and all of the campsites were beautiful and within easy walking distance to the creek. As a solo hiker and camper, I chose spot #1 for the way the creek opened up and the trees opened up around my tent site to give me a clear view of a beautiful moon. I also liked the quiet solitude of this site ... few cars passed here since it's on the back loop. The campground hosts also live two spots up. As an avid (delirious almost) rock stacker, I fell in love with this creek. The rocks are amazing and perfect for stacking and balancing. It was so relaxing I stacked till after dark and was up just after sunrise stacking again! The pine cones in camp are plentiful, so I got a good pine smoke going and didn't have the first mosquito or black fly. I'm telling you ... this place is heaven! After dark a bunch of deer came through my camp and lapped at the creek for almost a half hour. Two fawns frolicked in the fern thickets next to my tent for a while and were bouncing around like puppies! With the light of the moon, I felt like I had a front row seat for natures big show that night! Also, there are synchronous fireflies here, which surprised me. Just after dark during the Summer Solstice, I thought it was kids playing with flashlights, but it was fireflies, all blinking in unison! It was amazing! I can't WAIT to go back! In fact, now that I'm home, I'm missing it. Cooper Creek is open year round and keep their gates open 24 hours a day. You won't get a phone signal here, so you may as well turn it off ... the solitude is amazing! Each site has a tent pad, grills, lantern pole and a picnic table. There are also bear bins that are an easy walk from each site for discarding trash. For hikers, you won't be disappointed. There are five interconnected trails that start in or near the camping area (Yellow Mountain Trail- 3.2 miles, Connector Trail- 0.4 miles, Mill Shoals Trail- 0.9 miles, Shope Gap Trail- 0.6 miles, and Cooper Creek Trail- 1.7). I found myself hiking in and out and exploring trail after trail. The abundance of trees at Cooper Creek keep the temperatures down, much cooler than up on the main road. I paid $10 a night for my site. There are faucets for drinking water and there are two vaults for bathrooms. There are no electric hook ups or dump stations. Primitive camping at it's finest! There are no reservations ... everything is first come, first serve. Have fun everyone!

We are staying here long term and plan to return the next year. Our reasons are simple:…read more1. It is quiet and peaceful. After living by major highways and the airport in Austin, TX it is a huge deal; 2. It is close to the Chatuge Lake ( it's not on the lake, but it's literally 1.5 miles to the public lake access); 3. They have WiFi; 4. The owners are the sweetest people you have ever met and they make you feel so welcome; 5. It is close to everything you ever wanted to do in this area. 6. The campground itself is super clean and well maintained. By the way, it's under a new ownership so I hear it's night and day from what it was before; 7. Did I say it's quiet and peaceful? Other positives: there is a cute babbling brook where our kids can wade; a fishing pond, where they can catch and release ( but mostly feed ) the fish; they have potlucks every month or so; outdoor games on the lawn; the price for all this is unbelievable ( compared to what we are used to ). There are no real negatives, except there has been bear sightings, but hey, it's the mountains and people really need to start be careful about what they leave outside. Also, please note that it is secluded, so don't be alarmed if your GPS takes you to residential area. Just follow the road to the campground sign. 2016 Update: With new improvements it's even better than last summer.

Long Ridge is a very well run camp ground with wonderful bathrooms and showers. They have spots for tent and electric and water van hook ups so they cater to all manner of camping.

Our neighbor smoked cigars and had slow R&B music playing till about 9pm and then it was quiet. We able to get a fire started fairly easily at our site. There was a pond with fish in it for catch and release only. No other amenities. The night was quiet and got down to the low 50s and I slept well enough to function the next day. All in all a great time here.

The noise isn't bad,and they have a quiet time from 10pm-8am, so sleeping is simple. Bathrooms are clean and the campground hosts are very nice. Once even brought local caught, fried trout and "Mexican" corn bread to our campsite one evening. My only complaint is that the website tells you to not bring in any foreign firewood, and that they have some for sale. When we got there, they were out of fire wood and we were told that they were "waiting on the guy" for wood. "Fortunately" he came saving me a trip into town, or so I thought. The wood they delivered to our site, two loads - $50 worth - was so green and wet that I had to run into town to buy fire starter bricks just to get it going. Batoning the wood into kindling and even shaving it into starter pieces proved futile. Even after getting the fire going, it wasn't very warm as it was struggling to burn the wood that smoked and sizzled. That is my only complaint for a lovely site. There are tons of trails and scenery to take in. I highly recommend the campground!

It's a bit expensive, but it saves you a trip down the mountain into town. I've stayed there three times and every other campground I've been to just doesn't seem to compare.
