Moccasin Creek State Park

The park features campgrounds; a fishing pier for the physically disabled, the elderly, and children; and walking trails.

Moccasin Creek State Park, situated in the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest, was established in 1963 as a simple campground, the result of a vision of then-Director of the Georgia Game and Fish Commission, Fulton Lovell.

The 32-acre (13 ha) tract was purchased for $63,415 and the park was originally run by the adjacent Lake Burton Fish Hatchery.

Just three years after it was established, the campground was turned over to the State Parks Department because it was too busy for Fish Hatchery personnel to manage.

The park offers easy access to the Chattahoochee National Forest and its features, such as the Appalachian Trail.
