*WATER SHORTAGE: Due to prolonged drought, the park's water supply is nearly depleted and unavailable in some locations. Campers must bring all needed water since showers and flush toilets are closed. Portable toilets are available in the campground and at the visitor center. Cottage guests are asked to use extreme conservation measures, such as skipping showers, limiting commode flushing, planning meals that require little water or dish washing, and bringing drinking water. In the event that cottages no longer have water, reservations will be cancelled and refunds will be made. We sincerely regret these inconveniences.
Black Rock Mountain State Park, named for its sheer cliffs of dark-colored biotite gneiss, encompasses some of the most outstanding country in Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains. Located astride the Eastern Continental Divide at an altitude of 3,640 feet, Black Rock Mountain is the highest state park in Georgia. Numerous scenic overlooks provide spectacular 80-mile vistas of the Southern Appalachians, and several hiking trails lead visitors past wildflowers, cascading streams, small waterfalls and lush forests. The summit visitor center and picnic tables are popular with travelers in northeast Georgia. Rental cottages and a campground make this a great mountain getaway.
