She was professional, polite and a pleasure to work with. We used the doggy park for our babies. The site was quiet and beautifully maintained. There were burning bushes planted through out the site that were bright & a sight to behold. The price to stay was reasonable and worth the drive. Go enjoy!

It seems pretty evenly divided between available rental spaces and spaces that are privately owned - many of the privately owned spaces are landscaped and hardscaped. In addition, there are cabins available to rent (this seems unusual to me, but perhaps normal for RV parks?) From my observations on the day we visited, the park was clean and very well maintained - grass and shrubs neatly trimmed. The park has good amenities, including swimming pools and a fitness center...there's also a fairly large clubhouse available to use for special events, but as we didn't go in, I can't speak to the facilities or condition of interior. River Vista is dog friendly, and has an off-leash space for the puppers to play. The location of the park is it's biggest asset - right in the north Georgia mountains so the scenery is beautiful. It's only a few minutes from Dillard, so it's convenient to some local shopping, grocery stores and restaurants. The family members we visited have stayed here multiple times and rate it as one of their favorite places to stay.

I usually try to stay in "affiliated" campgrounds whenever possible because they have to maintain a certain level of professionalism and caring for their service. Other times I go on line and try to get reservations in places that show up well in their web sites. This is not always satisfying, as there are many web sites that are much nicer than their actual grounds. This has happened to me a few times as I'm sure it has happened to you if you spend any amount of time traveling, I can say without fear of contradiction that this campground is a "diamond in the rough." It is in a pretty spot and managed by a fellow who absolutely goes out of his way to ensure that this campground and the folks who stay here are more than happy that they came here. Rick is the manager and he is nothing short of OUTSTANDING in the way he does his job. To be perfectly honest, there are not enough stars for me to light up when it comes to rating this campground. If you are fortunate to find yourself rv-ing in this incredibly beautiful part of our country, then try to get a spot here. I am certain that you will be more than pleased.

Everyone was super friendly and almost all of the campers stopped to talk to us as they went about the park walking their dogs, going for a stroll, or visiting the ponds and walking trail. We felt very welcome and our pets were very welcome, too. Every campsite had at least one pet, if not two. I highly recommend Deer Springs if you want a campground that is a quiet, relaxing spot. Take a jacket - it gets cooler at night (elevation is over 3400') than the surrounding area.

We are a small park with a focus on providing large sites in a comfortable and unique setting. Several of the larger sites will accommodate four guests, but unless otherwise noted, each site is limited to two adults and a maximum of two pets. Our park has been designed for "self contained RV's", and as such, there is no separate bath house on site. Each site has sewer, water, 30/50 amp services, picnic table, fire ring and a private gazebo. Each gazebo has a refrigerator with ice maker, preparation counter and sink with running water.

WiFi sucks, but the guy who took us to our sight went and got a loaner router from the office and helped hook it up. Office, clubhouse, pool area and facilities were all very nice and new. The pads are concrete are fairly level. The bad Or original site was someone's driveway. There was a tree overgrowing the driveway on the same side I had to back that made it a challenge to get into the sight. Once in the tree dropped crap all over our toad. The view from our right side window was the side of the building who's driveway we had parked in. My awning almost touched the building and there was very little room outside of our door. The WiFi here didn't work, nor did the cable connection for the tv. They did move us at our request to another open sight. So if you're planning on coming here you have to specifically ask if you're going to be in someone's driveway, because they won't offer that information and the site map doesn't show which lots have buildings on them. If you're looking for peace and quite, this is not the place for you. There is ongoing constructing between the heavy equipment clearing the property for more sites, or the constant banging of people repairing or having new permanent units worked on. Overpriced at $70.00 a day plus extra to be on the creek. We found a much nicer, quieter place in Hiawasee for 35.00 a night with riverfront sights at no extra cost. There's a reason for the 30 day cancellation notice. We tried to get out of our second week to go somewhere else, but they wouldn't allow it. Needless to say, we won't be back.
