North Georgia Campout Adventure

The difference between car camping & backpacking according to Sarah’s husband:

self respect

  • Enjoy North Georgia beauty without planning anything!

  • Delicious meals, snacks & wine with new friends

  • Laugh around the campfire and at the communal dinner table

  • Relax on the clear waters of the Chattahoochee river while tubing through the disappointingly unhistoric, but adorable town of Helen GA

Activity Level for This Trip

Rated Level 1

This is a leisurely adventure with minimal hiking/walking. Bathrooms are roughly a 3 minute walk from campgrounds but port-o-potties are within 1 minute. Setting up your campsite will be something each participant does but we will work together to support one another through every aspect. Tubing is mostly through calm waters (depending on river levels) with a few more shallow areas (rapids) where you may get “stuck” and have to get “unstuck” but overall it should require minimal effort.

  • Please consider the physical demands carefully as it is for the safety and enjoyment of the group. All guests will be required to sign an Acknowledgement of Physical Demands as part of their waiver upon booking.
