Been wanting to visit because of Band of Brothers and this is where the 506 trained. It's more nostalgic and memorialized for the greatest generation while the buildings are being renovated and restored. The gift area is small but there are some interesting pics and museum pieces to read to understand the historical context, but not enough to keep to engaged on site for a long time. Looking forward to seeing this place fully restored!

Only a self absorbed idiot would post about Taccoa being a nice retreat for kids. What a moron. This is where men of the greatest generation in American history were trained to defeat the factious germans. Then to have some clown post about how their group helped complete the site. Go to a boy/girl scout retreat you idiot and stop disgracing this camp!

A beautiful place in Georgia that was once forgotten. A great place to hike and catch a small piece of history. Tied in with a visit to the Toccoa museum, you will find the Airborne from Camp Toccoa were heroes and earned many metals. Highly suggested and a great place to take in fresh air and take in the beauty of North Georgia.

The small remnant of the camp itself was closed, but I had come to run up Currahee itself ("three miles up, three miles down"). That was a soul touching experience in its own. A beautiful road through a beautiful forest. The only downside was the graffiti near the top, and that the purpose of the hill now is as a placement for cell towers, but there are views at the top that will momentarily allow you to ignore the modern world and see there Georgian countryside possible as the men of Easy Company saw it. Currahee!

If you are history nerd like me, and a fan of the incredible series Band of Brothers. Then this place is for you. A small winding road to the top but an incredible view. Hopefully the museum will be built in the future. Currahee! High Ho Silver!

If you were a fan of Band of Brothers or are a mitary history buff, this is the place for you. They have plenty of authentic items used by the 101st during WWII. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. I highly recommend taking a hike or (attempt) run up Currahee as well.

Love the monuments around this place. We were not able to get into the camp historic site as it was closed, but you can still take in the historic significance of the camp by visiting the monuments and signs out side the fence.

Camp Toccoa has so much to offer adults & kids! Whether you want to do a retreat with coworkers, boy/girl scouts, or rehabilitate your precious child. Camp Toccoa hits all areas! The cabins are spacious enough & are grouped close enough for access to electricity, bathroom facilities & a camp fire. Activities include lots of hiking, team building, horseback riding, ropes course, swimming, and beautiful views of natural scenes.

Since my group helped complete Community Service Projects, we got a chance to make a difference in the lives of all the summer travelers who want to have fun. The experience was great & allowed us to see what it takes to keep the facility running successfully. The staff of Camp Toccoa are very friendly & patient with everyone, and they try to accommodate the requests from their guests.

I highly recommend any group utilize this facility for a few days, or volunteer to help them!

A must stop for any WWII or Band of Brothers fan. Very knowledgeable volunteer staff that really take pride in the museum. Also make sure to hike up Currahee Mountain just like Easy Company did many many years ago while in training.
