We weren't sure what to expect when we arrived in the middle of the night but Some RV stops are just a place to park for the night, this seemed like a place that could be a nice stop for a longer period of time.
We were asked to create a destination video for the place and we made this video.

North Shore Landing ended up being one of those places where you could easily spend your entire trip without ever leaving the property—and honestly, that’s part of what makes it different.
But honestly the campground was on the lake and had a nice campground type vibe to it. There were some full time or what looked like permanent trailers but....
The first thing you notice is how spread out everything feels. Instead of squeezing RVs into tight rows, the campground has a more relaxed layout with room to breathe. Some spots are tucked near the trees while others sit closer to the water, giving the whole place more of a vacation feel than a typical overnight stop.
And then there’s the lake.
Lake Oconee becomes the backdrop for almost everything here. Early mornings are quiet with fog rolling across the water, and evenings slow down just enough to remind you why people chase lake life in the first place. Whether you’re sitting outside with coffee or taking a walk near sunset, the waterfront atmosphere changes the entire pace of the day.
One thing that really stood out to us was how much there is to actually do here.
The campground has two separate pools, which helps spread people out and gives families plenty of room to relax without everything feeling overcrowded. Near the waterfront, there’s also a small beach area where people were hanging out, letting kids play, or just enjoying the view.
If you’re bringing a boat—or thinking about spending time on the water—the boat ramp and lake access make it easy to get out and explore Lake Oconee itself. You can tell this place was built around the lake lifestyle.
But one of the most unique things here?
The train car cabins.
Seeing actual train cars converted into cabin-style lodging definitely catches your attention the first time you drive by. It gives the campground a personality that feels different from the cookie-cutter RV resorts you see everywhere else. Even if you’re staying in an RV spot, the train cars become one of those things people keep walking over to look at.
And right near the entrance sits another detail that adds to the charm—the train car coffee shop.
It’s one of those little touches that makes the campground feel memorable instead of generic. Grabbing coffee from a train car before starting your day around the lake just fits the vibe of this place.
There’s even a small petting-zoo-style animal area that adds another layer for families and kids. It’s not some giant attraction—but it’s enough to give the campground more personality and create those random little moments people remember from a trip.
What stood out most to us about North Shore Landing wasn’t just one feature.
It was the combination of everything together.
The lake.
The pools.
The train cars.
The waterfront atmosphere.
The slower pace.
The Train Car Coffee Shop at the entrance is a great place for a little morning pickup.
Some campgrounds are built simply for parking RVs.
This one feels built for making memories.
