Campground Review – Currahee RV and Campground, Toccoa, GA

Campground Review – Currahee RV and Campground, Toccoa, GA

Not every campground is a destination in itself—sometimes it’s simply the perfect place to park for a couple of nights while you explore the surrounding area. That was the case with Currahee RV Park & Campground in Toccoa, Georgia.

We stayed here for two nights while visiting the nearby military museum and taking a scenic drive over to Helen, Georgia. This is a simple, no-frills campground without resort-style amenities, operating on an honor-system, cash-only basis with no on-site attendant.

While it may not offer many extras, it provided a convenient and quiet home base for our adventures in northeast Georgia.

Campground Rating Overview

Ratings are based on our personal stay and what we observed. Some sites appeared to be long-term residents and could be cleaned up. Our site was level, but did have broken concrete on corner. No staff was present, only communication was via email (which is why I done 1/5 for staff & service). Price was only $35/night. The value was in the location to what we were there to do.

Memorable Moments and Insights

The Currahee Military Museum is nearby as well as the tallest waterfall this side of the Mississippi coming in at 186 feet and can only be accessed through the University of Toccoa Falls.

Best part of this stay was that we were near what we went to see. Note that big rigs might have a tight departure as it was tight as we rounded out and hard to leave site with neighbor vehicles and trailers parked at or near roadway. 

DISCOVER THE LOCAL CHARM

Exploring the Surrounding Area

The area of Toccoa is surrounded by the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains and borders South Carolina. 

The Currahee Military Museum houses the restored historic train depot and honors the 18,000 WWII paratroopers who trained at Camp Toccoa.

The Currahee Mountain, which we drove to the top of is famous for hiking and historical paratrooper training. If you ever watched the movie, Band of Brothers, you would have heard, “3 Miles Up, 3 Miles Down.” This is the mountain that movie was based on.

Grocery stores and restaurants can be found only 10-15 minutes away.

Campground Review – Hill’s Landing RV Park, Cross, SC

We recently stayed at Hills Landing RV Park and thoroughly enjoyed our visit. This is a beautiful campground with something tooffer every type of camper. The park features waterfront sites, water-view sites, and sites located in the older section of thecampground, giving guests several options depending on their preferences and budget.

One of our favorite surprises was the camp store. Not only does it have the essentials you might need during yourstay, but it also serves some of the best ice cream we’ve had in a campground store. We also tried the Hunt BrothersPizza, and it was surprisingly good—perfect for an easy meal after a day of relaxing by the water.

The campground offers laundry facilities, a bathhouse, and a well-stocked general store, making longer stayscomfortable and convenient. The grounds are well maintained, and the peaceful waterfront setting makes it easy tounwind and enjoy the beauty of the area.

Welcome to Hill’s Landing RV Park

Overall, this was a wonderful stay, and Hills Landing is definitely a campground we would return to in the future. Ifyou’re looking for a relaxing getaway near the water in South Carolina, this park is worth considering.

Campground Review – Fort Eustis, Newport News, VA

Welcome to Fort Eustis Travel Camp

If you’re eligible to stay on military installations, Fort Eustis Recreation Park is one of those hidden gems that’s easy to overlook. We spent several days here while exploring the surrounding area, and found it to be a quiet, convenient home base. 

With only 15 full-hookup sites, it’s a small campground that offers a peaceful stay without the crowds. In this review, we’ll share what we liked, what to expect, and whether we’d stay here again.

Located on the banks of Lake Eustis, the site includes a 1-mile hiking trail, a boat ramp, and is open year-round.

Campground Rating Overview

Ratings are based on our personal stay and what we observed. The grounds could use some sprucing up as well as the sites need to be leveled. The staff didn’t offer much help in getting to site as we were told, “decide which way is better for you.” Price was only $30, which was good for what we got.

PERSONAL NOTES & EXPERIENCES

Memorable Moments and Insights

We drove to Virginia Beach and done some sight-seeing along the way. This was mainly an overnight sight we took advantage of for 2 nights. We took advantage of the Commissary and stocked up on meats.

We had a visitor our first night just a few feet from our camper. 

There are tight roads inside the campgrounds, which makes it harder for big rigs to get through. Must know which side you want your utilities hooked up on and which ones to run under the camper as the sewer and electric are on one side and the water is on the other.

Exploring the Surrounding Area

The PX and Commissary are less than a mile from the campsites. The PX includes several fast food restaurants. 

Other than doing what we needed on base, we didn’t explore much in the area. We did drive to Virginia Beach.

Campground Review – Raleigh Oaks RV, Four Oaks, NC

Welcome to Raleigh Oaks RV

Sometimes the best campground isn’t the one packed with activities—it’s the one that gives you a comfortable place to rest before getting back on the road. That was exactly our experience at Raleigh Oaks RV Resort in Four Oaks, North Carolina. 

We chose this park as a convenient overnight stop while traveling to Hill’s Landing in Cross, South Carolina, and it served its purpose well. 

Although our stay was brief and we didn’t have the opportunity to experience the resort’s amenities, we found it to be a clean, easy stop that made for a relaxing night’s rest before continuing our journey.

PERSONAL NOTES & EXPERIENCES

Memorable Moments and Insights

As this was only an overnight spot and we did not do any sightseeing or research of the area, I do not have any memorable moments. 

It was a nice park and one we might use for an overnight again, if the need arises.
