If you are considering a stay at Peachtree Cove, then you probably already know that all of our sites are either creekfront or riverfront. But what about supplementing your stay with a visit to Lake Chatuge,* located in Hiawassee, Georgia – only 37 minutes from PCRV.** Pack a picnic lunch and head out to enjoy a day on the lake!
Lake Chatuge is a TVA lake that features many public boat ramps for easy-access to all water sports. But there’s far more than that! In addition to the access to water sports such as boating, fishing, swimming, and skiing, there are lakeside (yet on-ground!) options for the whole family. The Towns County Recreational Beach is not only a public swimming beach, but also boasts picnic tables and playgrounds for the ultimate family evening by the lake.
The area is also pet friendly, and offers practical amenities such as free parking, public restrooms, and self-guided tours. Additionally, it is open year ’round and is free admission.
Contact us to reserve your site at PCRV – and then anticipate a day at the lovely Lake Chatuge!

Many people don’t realize that Peachtree Cove is located a comfortable and lovely hour’s drive away from Blue Ridge, Georgia. This mountain city is nestled in the heart of the lovely North Georgia mountains. Each year, hundreds of people flock to the North Georgia mountains to enjoy the beautiful scenery, tour the quaint historic downtown Blue Ridge, and soak up hours of relaxation up in the heights.
Perhaps one of the greatest advantages of touring in the North Georgia mountains is that, while many thousands flock for a visit each season, the area rarely, if ever, takes on the feeling of a major tourist attraction with all of the entailed chaos and traffic. There are also many activities to help make the most of your vacation and family time, including the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway, floating down the Toccoa River, horseback riding through the mountains, scenic driving for motorists, hiking, and more! And the best news of all? You can visit during any season: all year ’round!
There are numerous restaurants scattered throughout Blue Ridge offering wonderful dining experiences to enhance your visit. Also, don’t forget about the many charming shops at which you can purchase scores of quality items to add that special touch to your home and life, or as gifts for the ones you love. From home furnishings and décor to old fashioned candy and everything in between, you can build up your vacation to the highest notch possible when you take advantage of all Blue Ridge has to offer.
If you think you need to stay in Blue Ridge to benefit from all it offers, don’t be mistaken. Peachtree Cove RV Park is ready and waiting to welcome you to the mountains. And besides, what could be better than basking in the beautiful Smokies of Western North Carolina at night, while still making the most of a North Georgia experience?
