Calhoun A-OK Campground

Stayed Dec. 29-30, 2020. Arrival after hours in the dark. Directions to site 45 ok. Fairly level, but too tired to level for such a short stay. 30 amp, water. No WIFI: Wireless network but nothing in the pipe. Very disappointing. Grounds seem to be in transition and expansion. We filled propane and dumped here. Overall good experience. Definitely a quiet nights sleep. Our site on the end was great because no one was next to us. I don’t recall how many bars t mobile. But 3 bars Verizon.

We stayed in Dec 2020 on site 101 which is a 50 amp water and electric only pull through on gravel. Site was level and had a picnic table. Power and water were on same side. Since we were only staying for an overnight trip to rest for the night we didn’t get sewer also but they do have plenty of site with it. We did not use laundry or bathroom facilities. We could not get WiFi to work but they say it is available. We have our own so we ended up just using ours.Crystal (campground office staff) was amazing and very kind. The campground looked nice and was perfect for overnight stay only 1.5 miles off I-75 with no noise. Our pull through site was not tight with no trees around as this seemed to be a newer part of the campground. Our site was almost long enough to keep our Ford F-350 and 44 ft toy hauler attached to it. I would definitely recommend for a short stay. Cannot really say enough for a long stay but on the map it says it has pet playground, petting zoo, pavilion, camp store and catch and release pond.

We were greeted by the new owners and excited about the camp store that had food and spices which we had never seen before -My kids really like it here for the playground - we had a pull thru site with a nice patio set which was a nice bonus - the owner came to our site to welcome us make sure all was good and to give us fresh baked cookies!! They are making some great improvements here brand new laundry room and more to come - definitely a place to come back too!!!

After battling rush hour traffic in Atlanta and finding no vacancies near the city, we were finally able to find a spot here - although it filled up soon after our 7:30 arrival. When we turned into the park past the purple VW microbus painted with peace symbols and slowed down for the resident peacock, we knew we had found a unique campground.

The setting is beautiful, with an abundance of wildlife, mature hardwoods and rolling hills. Although the campground was virtually full, it was very quiet except for the sounds of nature. You are really in the middle of the forest, but less than two miles from the Interstate. No road noise here, though.

The owners met us at check-in and showed us to our site. Very nice and accommodating people! The campground office has a well-stocked general store. They even deliver pizza to your site!

The place was a former KOA (backwards is A-OK) so there are quite a few amenities: miniature golf, pool, large playground, Kamping Kabins, community fire pit, etc. All are kept in great condition. If it had been 20 years ago and our kids were with us, they would have made us stay more than one night. Everything is there for a fun family vacation - even goats and ducks to feed!

I did not give it 5 stars because of two reasons: the sites were not level (be sure you have your leveling blocks) and the bathhouse, while clean, is in need of an update.

We had a 30 amp site with water and no sewer, with a Good Sam discount.
