Hi. I’m new to RVing and to this forum! My husband and I just purchased a Geo-Pro and haven’t taken it anywhere yet. We are thinking of going to the Tallulah Gorge State Park Campground, and are wondering if there is a steep grade going to/from the campground. I’m pulling with a Toyota Highlander V6 that’s rated to tow 5000 lbs. The Geo-Pro is a little over 3000 ,not including the hitch.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Campground is a short distance off of US 23/441... no problem getting to it. Unlike many other states most GA SP CGs are still open... for now.

This post is my opinion (free advice). It is not intended to influence anyone's judgment nor do I advocate anyone do what I propose.

I can't speak for the State Park, we didn't stay there. We stayed at River Falls at the Gorge Campground and that had a steep hill heading down to the river, not bad though. We made that climb out with our 38' fifth wheel just fine but is was a little intimidating. [emoticon]

If I remember correctly we did check out the state park, the sites looked very nice BUT I can't remember the drive in or out of it, sorry. [emoticon]

I can say though that the gorge itself is beautiful!! Definitely worth visiting at least once!!! Good luck with your trip.

Very easy grades going in & out of the park, it's less than 1 mile from hwy 441, by the way this is a great campground.

Don't be that concerned with grades! Gear down, go slow. You'll be fine. You won't get to go so many beautiful places if grades are an issue with you.
