"We enjoyed hiking Falls Trail with our two dogs and checking out some of the nearby cities - Jackson & Forsyth.
A few things to note: the internet is VERY spotty and the sites are not level."
"Spent one night on the road here at a RV site on the lakeside camping area (they also offer additional entrance to river side camping.) Busy but courteous neighbors."
$34 - $700 / night
"The camp sites are the other side of the lake from the group and public shelters/picnic areas etc so you feel away from everything. The park offers a museum, trails, kayak rentals and more. "
"This is a great state park located in Flovilla, Georgia. If about 10 miles off I-75.
We arrived after dark so the main entrance was hard to see."
"This campground reopened in October 2018 as a Georgia State Park operated by High Falls State Park. The state has upgraded some of the sites."
"Beautiful park, close to the road, but private enough to relax. Drop your kayak in from a waterfront site an enjoy Lake Juliette, popular for Bass fishing."
"Only critique would be need exit signs. Easy to go the wrong way."
"It is convenient to the highway for a stopover - Staff we met was very friendly and helpful.
Section we stayed in seemed geared toward the one-nighters - narrow pull-thru sites."
"We stayed in March, so when the leaves are off the trees, you can see the lake. Kinda doubtful you would during the summer. Gray water dump is very close."
"They have trails for hiking and biking a beach to swim mini golf museums and a tranquil little creek that flows over rocks that you can go walk on"
$15 / night
"Note to future campers: the campground is NOT located at the address provided. This is the recreational park."
"I met him on the trail to the falls and took the time to explain the factory that used to be there. Very interesting. Most sites are on the water. Has toilets and showers."
"Open spaces and very quiet this time of the year (January) train horn in the distance and gunshots in the distance as well from hunters here and there but all around a great spot to really enjoy."
"There are hunters around and we heard a good deal of shots. Saw some deer on a walk. It was quite hot but surprisingly not that buggy."
$93 / night
"A few years ago, I visited this location because I considered living long term in an RV. The location is in a good spot right off the free way. It is clean."
"Fine place for a short term stay, near enough to Atlanta that you can visit. The campground itself is back behind a construction area, and Google has a hard time routing to it properly."
$44 - $65 / night
"Lived in Georgia my whole life and yet my first time to Stone Mountain was literally three years ago. Now we have an annual pass and go all the time."
"One of the best camping areas in Georgia."
$15 - $30 / night
"Ten miles from Jackson Lake and canoeing opportunities along Ocmulgee River. Give them some love and try them out!"
"Rob and Matt walked my husband through every step with “insider” tips. Mindy was so welcoming and gave me lots of good ideas while the guys set up."
ScoutReal nice campground. We will be back! Darlene and Bob, great hosts, campground well maintained right on Lake Oconee.
TravelerPerfect time and very quiet this time of the year
TravelerNo cell coverage, has fire pit, mostly tent and car campers. I went with a travel trailer.
LegendNice huge state park with a lake and activities. There are two separate campground loops. We stayed in loop one, site #22. There are premium lake side sites, but we stayed in a normal site for $38/night, plus the $5 GA state parks entry fee, so $43 for a night- much too expensive but we needed to be near Atlanta for an early morning oil change the next day. Sites are nice and large, flat (we didn’t even need to get out our levels). They are arranged in a way that you don’t feel close to your neighbor. Free hot showers, firewood for $5/bundle, soda machines, dump station (sites have power and water). We stayed in early November and there were other campers here, but still plenty of availability. The campground was nice and quiet.
ScoutJust called the park they are no longer nightly or weekly they only do long-term.
ScoutAfter reading previous review I can say they do have showers and bathrooms. A little away from where you park but not too far. Great park, nice sites, full hookups. Staff was super friendly and very helpful. They also have a laundry facility.
ScoutI recently got back into camping and, now engaged, decided to go with my fiancée. After spending two nights and three days at Stone Mountain Park, I can confidently say it's one of the best places for first-time campers. We chose the Primitive Tent option and appreciated the spaciousness of each site. Originally booked for spot 188, we noticed 200 was open and seamlessly switched for $14.45—highly recommended for its stunning view. However, it offers less space, with campsites closer together, and we couldn't fully secure one of our tent stakes (So if you go for the best view get ready to make a few sacrifices). Conveniently, all campsites are near the bathroom and showers, making accessibility easy.
ScoutMy fiancé and I went tent camping here this past weekend. The bathrooms were walkable and clean! The lady’s bathroom had some cute hanging plants as well as a heater since it’s cold out.
The area we were had a great view of the mountain. Even with other campers the place felt peaceful.
We were by the lake, which was incredibly nice. Due to the time of year there were many geese, which was quite fun. But they sure were noisy that first night!
Overall it was very nice for us to unwind and enjoy our time together.
The park offers many more activities than we participated in! The employees were very friendly and kind!
ScoutExcellent safe parking if you need to take a break to rest. No hookups but have wide parking spots, secured gated, fenced access. Easy walking access to Quiktrip next door. Right off exit
