Nestled in the north Georgia mountains just two miles from the Alpine village of Helen, Unicoi is one of Georgia's most beloved state parks. Throughout the year, the park offers outstanding programs which focus on natural, cultural, historical and recreational resources. Groups can make advanced reservations for specialized programs. Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy hiking and biking on scenic mountain trails, especially those leading to Helen and Anna Ruby Falls. Craft lovers should not miss the lodge gift shop specializing in hand-made quilts and local pottery. Numerous picnic tables are located throughout the park.

    As good as it gets!

    I love this pet-friendly park with it's hiking loop around the lake and beach area. There's a lodge  
    and some very unique "cabins" bordering the lake. 
    I've heard the bike trail is challenging and I look  
    forward to checking it out this summer.
