Deep Hole Recreation Area

Overview

Deep Hole Recreation Area is a U.S. Forest Service Campground and Day Use Area located approximately 2 hours north of Atlanta in the North Georgia Mountains of the Chattahoochee National Forest. Deep Hole offers visitors year-round recreation opportunities such as camping, fishing, picnicking, and a launch area for tubing and kayaking along the Toccoa River. Trout fishing is popular here in North Georgia so camping at Deep Hole adjacent to the Toccoa River is an amazing opportunity for avid fisherman. Nine campsites are neatly arranged in one loop and walking distance to the Toccoa River. Campsites 5 & 9 are directly next to the River. The climate here is fairly mild and generally offers all four seasons, so it's a wonderful place to relax and experience each of these throughout the year. North Georgia is a playground for wildlife watchers. We have an abundance of Deer, Turkey, Bear, and small Furbearers. There is a $5.00 Day Use Fee for those that only are not staying overnight, and are looking to fish, kayak, picnic, or tube down the Toccoa River. If you are camping, you are excluded from this fee. If you need to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, please visit Deep Hole Recreation Area.

Recreation

This campground is located along the banks of a big turn of the Toccoa River just north of Suches, GA. The primary attraction to this area is the Toccoa River, with immediate access for fishing and boating. The Chattahoochee National Fish Hatchery is only 5.5 miles away and they stock this area with trout weekly during peak camping season. Cooper Creek and Rock Creek are within ten minutes of Deep Hole Recreation Area, which offers visitors more areas to trout fish and more camping opportunities in beautiful North Georgia.  Deep Hole is the beginning of the Toccoa River Canoe Trail, offering 13.8 miles of moderate paddling to the take-out at Sandy-Bottoms Recreation Area.
