Natural Features
Deep Hole Recreation Area is located within the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Georgia and you can't ask for a better atmosphere for camping and floating down the Toccoa River. During the months of October, North Georgia's trees put on a vibrant show. Summer's dark greens change to brilliant reds, oranges, and yellows which makes the camping atmosphere amazing. Thousands of visitors make the trip annualy and we hope you will as well.
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.

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.
