Which North Georgia State Parks have sewer hookups? We are wanting to go north to camp and as everyone else stay close to home. The DW does not like bath houses so if we stay for any long length of time, I need to empty the grey water. This is why I need the sewer hookups. Any info would be helpful.

One word answer, none. But you could check the Georgia State Parks website, research the information yourself rather than trusting someone on the internet. I found their website using Google, and you can, too.

Wayne is correct (and he needs to take a happy pill ). None of the state parks have full hookups. Most of the parks do offer 30 or 50 amp service and water. There is a dump station at the parks, as well.
I've stayed at quite a few of them and so have several others here. If you want opinions on certain ones, post your questions and you'll probably get a few responses.

Here is GA state parks web site.
You probably already know that, though.

We had a rally at Bald Mountain Park in Hiawassee. Great park, super nice people. Great views.

Good luck.

I know that some of the GA parks do have grey water dumps scattered around the park. For example, Hart State Park is set up this way. You won't have a gray water dump on your site. But, you might have one next to you or down just a couple of sites away. If you took a regular hose with you, you may be able to use that hose to dump just your gray in the gray water dumps. You'll have to check each park though and pick a site close enough to a gray water dump in order for it to work. Unfortunately, I don't think they show these on their campground maps so you may have to talk to the park. Or just take a blue tote and empty it daily using those same gray water dumps or the regular dump. I don't know what all parks have the gray water dumps, though.

Then, just dump your black at the regular dump station when you leave.

We just use a blue tote (even use it for the gray water dumps located in some GA parks). We both shower and use the toilet in our 5er and, if we take navy showers can get by for 5-6 days without emptying our gray. All our dish washing is done in a bucket and that goes down the toilet. Solves two problems, small kitchen gray tank and a toilet that needs lots of water.
Love GA state parks. Have fun.

Not trying to be rude or obnoxious just trying to help the guy help himself. Sorry if it was taken wrong.

While Hart State Park is not what I consider North Georgia, they do have 4-5 full hookup sites. We thought it was a nice park.

rmw is correct. So what part of Ga do you consider this area?

Although the original poster didn't say he wanted to be in the Georgia Mountains, when I hear "North Georgia", I automatically think the "mountains"....Hart State Park is somewhat north, but certainly not in a real mountainous area....more hilly....it's a fairly nice park, but what I consider the mountains, I don't believe any of those State Parks have sewer hook-ups but I'm not 100% sure. The only GA State Park we have been in with sewer at all sites was Florence Marina State Park...certainly not in the mountains though.
