Unicoi State Park near Helen, GA
Welcome to our online travel scrapbook! The last time I visited Unicoi State Park, I was about 10 years old. I went with my parents and we stayed in a barrel cabin. I thought it was great fun to climb up to my own sleeping loft in the cabin. This time, I visited with my husband in a travel trailer and found it great fun to imagine how run down those cabins must be by nearly 50 years later. I've been back to Helen many times since then, and for a while it was an annual New Year's destination with cousins to stay in their cabin. But, this was my first time back at Unicoi since I was a child. We enjoyed our time. although we didn't participate much in the offerings inside the park other than the campground. There wasn't anything particularly special about the campground other than a nice lake to walk around. We could have done the archery range - maybe next time. Back in the 1970s, Helen, GA was really fun. Maybe it was because I was a child and all of the Swiss-Alps-them...
