Blue Ridge RV Resort Review

Bottom Line: Blue Ridge RV Resort is a game-changer for North Georgia camping. As someone who's stayed in 100+ RV parks across the country, I can confidently say this brand-new 2025 resort sets the standard for what modern RV parks should be. The owners Vicky and Gary clearly studied what campers want and delivered on every front - spacious level sites, genuinely fast WiFi, immaculate facilities, creek access, and personal service. At $55-75/night, it's priced competitively with older campgrounds but offers 5-star resort amenities. This is my new go-to recommendation for Blue Ridge.

The Sites - Perfectly Executed: We stayed in creekside site #68 for five nights in early October. WOW. This 70-foot pull-through was everything you want in an RV site - perfectly level (didn't even need leveling blocks), fresh gravel pad, 50-amp hookup with excellent power (no voltage drops even running two ACs), full hookups including sewer, brand new picnic table and fire ring, and the sound of the creek 30 feet from our door. The spacing between sites is generous (25-30 feet) - we had privacy despite being in a "resort" setting. Every site has mature trees for shade, and the landscaping is meticulously maintained. They even seed grass between gravel pads, which shows attention to detail you rarely see.

WiFi That Actually Works - Not an Exaggeration: I work remotely full-time from my RV, so WiFi performance is make-or-break for me. Blue Ridge RV Resort has the BEST campground WiFi I've ever tested (and I've tested hundreds). Speed test from our site: 187 Mbps download, 94 Mbps upload. This is better than my home internet in some cities! I took 12 Zoom video calls over five days with zero connection issues, uploaded 4K video to YouTube, and streamed Netflix on three devices simultaneously without buffering. The "blanketed hot spot coverage" isn't marketing speak - they have enterprise-grade equipment with repeaters ensuring strong signal at every site. If you're a digital nomad, this is your dream campground.

Private Bathhouses - Total Luxury: Unlike most campgrounds with communal bathhouses, Blue Ridge RV Resort has PRIVATE bathroom facilities. Think hotel-style - individual rooms with toilet, sink, and walk-in shower with excellent water pressure and unlimited hot water. Everything is brand new (literally opened 2025), sparkling clean with modern finishes, touchless fixtures, and heated floors! Cleaned daily by staff. The owners clearly understand that many RVers prefer not to use their RV bathrooms - these private facilities are the perfect solution. Even if you don't use them, it's reassuring to have luxury backup.

Heated Pool and Clubhouse: The pool is beautiful - saltwater system, heated to comfortable temperature (82°F when we visited), surrounded by new lounge chairs and umbrellas. We used it every afternoon after hiking - perfect for relaxing sore muscles. The clubhouse is spacious with couches, tables, coffee station, camp store basics, and games for kids. Large windows overlook the creek. This is where you'll meet other campers - we had great conversations with full-timers from Texas, a couple from Florida traveling in a vintage Airstream, and locals visiting Lake Blue Ridge for fishing.

Creek Access - Natural Beauty Bonus: The 1,800 feet of creek frontage is what elevates this resort above parking-lot RV parks. The creek is stocked with rainbow trout (we saw several people fishing successfully), and there's a walking trail along the water perfect for morning coffee strolls with our dogs. The sound of running water is therapeutic - we left our windows open at night just to hear it. Kids were wading, building rock dams, and catching minnows. One morning I saw a great blue heron fishing 20 feet from our site. This natural element balances the "resort" vibe perfectly.

The Owners - Vicky and Gary: What makes this resort truly special is the owners' involvement. Vicky greeted us personally at check-in, walked us to our site, helped guide our 38-foot Class A into position, and gave us a complete orientation (WiFi details, pool hours, creek trail, local restaurant recommendations, etc.). She genuinely cared that we had everything we needed. Throughout the week, we saw Gary maintaining sites, chatting with campers, and immediately addressing any issues (a neighbor had a loose water connection - Gary brought tools and fixed it in 5 minutes). This isn't a corporate chain - it's family-owned with hospitality you can feel.

Dog Park and Pet Amenities: The fenced dog park is approximately half an acre with separate sections for small and large dogs. Our two labs LOVED it - they played with other camper dogs every morning and evening. The park has agility equipment (ramps, tunnels), water station, waste bags, and shaded benches. Staff maintains it daily (picked up waste, refilled water). The creek trail is also dog-friendly for leashed walks. With a $5/night per pet fee and no breed/weight restrictions, this is one of the most pet-welcoming resorts we've found.

EV Charging and Future-Proof Amenities: As someone who doesn't have an EV yet but is considering it, I appreciated seeing Level 2 EV charging stations (metered fee). This shows the owners are thinking ahead. All sites are also equipped for solar panel hookup if you have them. The electrical infrastructure is clearly built to modern standards - never had power issues even running all our systems. This resort will stay current as RV technology evolves.

Minor Observations (Not Really Downsides): The resort is brand new, so some landscaping is still maturing (trees are young in a few areas, but they planted a LOT that will provide more shade in coming years). The camp store is small - basic supplies only, so stock up at Ingles in Blue Ridge before arriving. No dump station for non-guests passing through (this is for registered campers only - all sites have sewer hookups anyway). Rates don't include firewood - you'll need to purchase locally or bring your own. These are tiny details that don't diminish the overall experience.

Pro Tips From Our Stay: Request creekside sites (60-75) for best natural setting - worth the small upcharge. Poolside sites (20-35) are great for families with kids. Buddy sites (10-12, 40-42) let you camp next to friends/family. Ask Vicky about monthly rates if you're considering extended stay - significant discounts available. Visit Swan Drive-In Theater one evening (classic experience). Download the Blue Ridge Brewery app for ordering pickup. The creek fishing is best early morning (6-8 AM) before the sun hits the water. Check out the local Blue Ridge Scenic Railway - absolutely worth the 2-hour ride.

Who It's Perfect For: Digital nomads and remote workers needing fast, reliable WiFi. Families wanting luxury resort amenities (pool, playground, dog park). Full-timers and long-term campers seeking modern facilities. Big rig owners needing spacious, level pull-through sites. Pet owners with active dogs (dog park is excellent). Couples wanting peaceful creek-side retreat. Anyone tired of crowded, outdated campgrounds with poor WiFi. NOT ideal for: Budget campers seeking $25/night rates, those wanting primitive wilderness camping, tent campers (this is RV-focused), or people avoiding "resort" atmosphere.
