"Campground Review:
Red Top Mountain State Park is located in Acworth, GA. The park is located around 12,000-acre Lake Allatoona, which made it perfect for summer camping."
"Many were positioned right on the lake. The trails in the park were great for hiking and running. We enjoyed visiting the Qualusi Winery that was nearby."
$30 - $34 / night
"We have traveled across the country a few times in the last year and are always looking for a good place to stay near Atlanta. We've found it!"
"Georgia Veteran’s Memorial State Park, McKinney Campground on Allatoona Lake (north of Atlanta; a Corp of Engineer park) - very woodsy and a nice lake. Hiking, rafting/etc, and walking all around."
$24 - $290 / night
"These are two completely different parks in two completely different parts of Georgia. SCofA does not have a mill, ruins, river or mountain trails. It does have a lake. Allatoona Lake."
"Beautiful area of camping spots around the lake. Very good infrastructure, showers, bathrooms, etc."
$24 - $34 / night
"Lots of sites are waterfront or has access to the lake, that is a plus. The lake area is tranquil and quiet."
"Wanted to know every detail of everyone in our party, and my husband came late and I have to give notice for him to join us ( the campground is gated) Now the positives- It’s right on beautiful lake Allatoona"
$34 / night
"There is also signage to verify that you are going the right way until you see the CG entrance. We pulled into the gate area and were checked in by the attendant on duty."
"Clark Creek North is a small gem tucked along the shore of Lake Allatoona just north of Atlanta. It is small with just 24 spots equipped with water and electric and every spot has water access."
$24 - $68 / night
"This campground is full of beautiful lakeside sites! Many are well-spaced, but some are close together. We camped with our van in one of the tent sites because the rv sites were full."
"I didn't get a chance to snap pictures or videos but it is nestled along the shore of Lake Allatoona."
$28 / night
"The US Army Corp of Engineers manages McKinney Campground on Lake Allatoona near Acworth. It’s close to home, so it’s a quick trip. There are 150 tent/RV sites. Fees range from $24 - $28 per night."
"If you want lake front, they got it! Almost all sites either have a view of the lake or are right on lake Allatoona! We tent camped here on site 45 in October 2017."
$42 - $52 / night
"The lake is beautiful. It’s quiet other than the occasional train whistles. The WiFi is pretty much non existent so don’t plan on that. Even with a booster we couldn’t pick it up."
"The bathrooms were pretty amazing compared to the last campground we were at which was also on alatoona lake as well. ( McKinney camp ground ) The first night we got here it was packed, like crazy packed"
$24 - $34 / night
"Very private yet close to 75. Right on Lake Alatoona. Lots to do in Cartersville and Acworth. Recommend. Enjoy!!"
"My dad SCUBA dives quite a bit in a quarry nearby, so this is a great site for the family to stay with the camper."
$30 - $68 / night
"One section of the campground was too close to the highway, which made you hear cars passing all night, but sites 32 and up were very peaceful and quiet."
"This is a great campground, close to town and the lake view is amazing. There’s enough space and privacy between camp sites. Clean comfortable picnic area with table and fire pit."
ScoutThis is a great place to camp, we enjoy staying here they also have some tent sites, wifi is a bit spotty which is to be expected since everyone is trying to use it so either use your hotspot or a mobile internet provider and you will be fine, dog park was well kept, playground has plenty of options for the little ones, the splash pad was a hit for our little ones as they enjoyed it, check in was a breeze as the office folks are very informative as to the surrounding place’s you can visit all really at a relatively short drive…your close to your neighbor but not to close “if that makes since”….will definitely stay here again
ScoutCheck in staff very friendly Site 32 - Nice level site. Plenty of room for us. Back in is not straight so it takes alittle bit of maneuvering(that maybe why it was one of the last few sites available a week out). Very close to the lakeshore. Morning and afternoon shade, otherwise pretty direct sun overhead around noon.
The restroom and shower facilities were clean. Plenty of hot water. Gave it 4 stars only because I thought the swim beach could have been more clear of stuff that washed up. Otherwise a great campground. Would definitely stay here again!
GuideGreat campground in the woods lots of shade right on the lake. Our littles loved the beach and all the little rascally squirrels were fun to watch. There was no phone service and no WiFi so unless you bring your own this is a great place to figure out why a weather radio would come in handy! Very peaceful and serene.
TravelerPack a light daypack, park your car and enjoy your 5 mile hike to Len Foote's Hike Inn, sustainable lodging primarily powered by solar panels. Once at the inn, you'll find the composting operation interesting: composting toilets and happy composting worm bins converting leftover food into black gold! Lotta birds chirping, there's a daily bird sighting board in the cafeteria. The informative evening staff presentation was about Coffee growing, distribution and social impacts. Plenty of solar heated water and a supplied towel for my nighttime shower... well done!
The staff went over and above with service, food was great (pulled pork for dinner), the bathrooms spotless. The trail is sooo well maintained by an AT club... There are lots of roots crossing the trail, if ya think about it just a bit, u'll find the roots cut up the inclines and descents into stair steps. On the hike in, passed 3 friendly dudes moving an eroding piece of the trail a bit higher up a hill. 🙏
A really impressive immersive experience... if u r thinking about booking it, just doooo it!
GuideFantastic, recently renovated area for camping. Right next to a spring-fed creek, with a camp host and ranger keeping people in check and safe. Toilets only and no hookups. No generators at night (yeay!) Great to test dry camping for newbies.
Scout80 spaces for large RVs at $46 a night. Kayaking is one of the main activities. Kayak rentals and sales. Friendly staff. Bath house, nice and clean and adequate but definitely needs and upgrade.
GuideVery safe campground. I grew up camping here with my dad. When I had my oldest son, I would take him camping here, just me and him. I've camped at this campground several times as a single mom and never had problems. The campground entrance is 10 miles on the right off the Redbud Rd exit. Only con is not a lot of shade in the campsites.
ScoutLoved it but had to make my own trail wth my dogs .
GuideMy wife and I stayed for three nights mid-week. Site 93 is a "premium" site and the view was certainly that. Instead of looking at other sites, we were looking into a wooded valley.
I hiked the Iron Hill Trail which was wide and surfaced with nice gravel. No bicyclists while I was walking, though they are permitted on that trail. Great views of the woods and lake.
The site was clean. Utilities worked. The dump station was clean but unfortunately does not have a threaded connection for a water host so I could not back-flush the tanks.
