The RVer's Guide to Lake Lanier Campgrounds

Lake Lanier has more RV sites than almost anywhere else in Georgia — Corps of Engineers campgrounds, a state park, county parks, and a full resort. Here's the quick tour, from a team that services rigs at all of them.

Corps of Engineers Campgrounds

Duckett Mill and Bolding Mill (Gainesville side) — lakefront sites, quiet loops, and some of the prettiest water views on the north end. Old Federal and Van Pugh South (Flowery Branch) — nearly every site touches water. Shoal Creek (Buford) — closest to Buford Dam. Bald Ridge Creek and Shady Grove (Cumming) — the west side favorites. War Hill (Dawsonville) — the quiet northwest arm.

State & County Parks

Don Carter State Park — Georgia's only state park on Lanier, on the Gainesville end. River Forks Park — Hall County's own lakefront campground with concrete pads and big beach.

Resort Sites

Margaritaville at Lanier Islands — full-hookup resort camping with the waterpark next door.

When Something Breaks Lakeside

Here's the thing about lake weekends: A/C units pick July Saturdays to quit, and slides jam on checkout morning. You don't need a tow off the lake — you need mobile repair that comes to your site. That's us: based in Gainesville, 15–30 minutes from almost every campground on this list, 24/7 for emergencies.
