According to a recent reviewer,

“I never thought an RV campground could be so nice. There are 3 tiers built into a giant mountainside. They spared no expense into this place. The park is super well maintained and manicured. It has a dog park, dog wash and dry, heated pool, jacuzzi, lodge with a mountain view, grilling sites, beautifully large glass enclosed meeting room overlooking the entire park and 1/2 of Georgia, all with incredible scenic overlooks. What is really cool, is at night the whole entire park is subtly lit by very unobtrusive color synchronized led lighting. Wow! There’s even a Walmart and Lowes withing 1/2 mile but you’d never know it. We camped at Talona Ridge RV Resort in a Fifth Wheel.”
