We have owned this property since 2005. The pond is a favorite place of ours and we would love to share it with you!! We live just up the mountain & are here for you via text if you need anything at all during your stay with us. The pond is in the middle of about a 4 acre area that is totally forested & makes a great place to get away from the madness of life & get into nature. Our street ends in a cul-de-sac, minimizing traffic in the area, but the spot is right along a street. You will be able to see & hear cars going by the site. On the other hand, it is also right along a deer path & just this morning I saw 2 does & a baby walking through the site. There is a resident hawk & a gaggle of turkeys that live in the area in addition to pileated woodpeckers & all sorts of other birds. Come check it out and please let us know if you have any questions. Learn more about this land: We would love to have you at the Pond at Dogwood Acres. Our pond is just a little pond, but it is full of life and makes for a cozy little campsite. You will be the only ones camping here. There is a long parking spot suitable for cars/SUVs/trucks and even a trailer or pop up. There are hiking trails leading into the woods at the right side of the end of the drive. Feel free to enjoy them. We are surrounded by the Chattahoochee National Forest and here in Towns County we are 80% National Forest. Lake Chatuge is close by (less than 10 minutes) in Hiawassee has 132 miles of shoreline. The Appalachian Trail weaves all through the area and you can get to numerous access points for the AT within about 30 minutes.

The Pond at Dogwood Acres

A Must stay

Megan was the best host ever! This quiet pond was excellent for the nature lover and the frogs sang majority of the night so we slept hard! Our reservation was a lil delayed with the previous campers but Megan made sure they were packed up in time for us☺️

This place was great! Very peaceful cute pond. We got there at dark, would recommend arriving earlier to back in so you can see the pond from the sliding door of the van. Clean and private. Definitely would stay again.

The Pond at Dogwood Acres

We ended up staying here because the national forest campground we usually go to was full. Although you are in a neighborhood, the site is very private and serene (in spring at least). Because of the trees you are only barely able to see the lights from a house across the street. It was definitely more private than a campground would be. We were worried about mosquitos due to the pond, however there were hardly any bugs and we had no problems with them! I think this must be because of the frogs and fish in the pond. The sounds of the frogs at night were our only issue. I think this is maybe a problem that would only occur in spring, but my husband could not sleep because of the frog mating calls which last throughout the night. I was able to sleep though, so it probably just depends on you. I also think outside mating season this probably isn’t an issue. We would come back, just maybe later in the Summer or the Fall! It was very relaxing and clean.
