Head up toward NE Georgia. Chances are if you choose the shortest route you will go through Atlanta. I might head toward the east and catch Eufaula toward I-75 and go north that way. (I dislike I-185 to I-85 to Atlanta road and traffic immensely) Head up I-75 to Macon then US129 to Athens. US129 can take you toward Vogel as wowens suggested, but that road is under heavy rebuild from Jefferson the Gainesville and is a mess at times. A larger rig is difficult to maneuver in Vogel, but the area is beautiful.
Or, in Athens catch US441 north. This will run all the way to NC and Tennessee. There is a tremendous amount of mountains to see between Athens and Tennessee however. Moccasin Creek SP is just off that route (turn in Clayton toward Hiawassee) River Bend CG on the banks of Hiawassee River in Hiawassee, Ga.
On 441 N of Clayton is River Vista (Dillard address) with cabins and RV sites.
441 will take you through Franklin NC and into Cherokee (MANY CG there) and up through Smokey Mtn Nat park. Several CGs in the park but not a lot of FHU.
Of course our favorite area is N Georgia and the mountains in the area around Helen, Cleveland, Clayton, Blairsville, Hiawassee, Murphy NC and that area.
