"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."
"It’s pretty close to the highway so at night you can hear the cars. Everyone is really nice, neighbors help each other if needed, and it’s very quiet too."
"You are close to highway so you here some road noise but it’s still pretty quiet."
$26 - $36 / night
"Our sites have all been lake-side and very large with a paved drive. There is hiking around the shore line and lots of ducks in the lake to feed (Shh!)"
"It was right on the lake with a beautiful view. It has a path that goes down to the lake. A lot of the sites are on the lake and most sites offer ample shade."
$20 - $240 / night
"This site was a nice distance away from the RV focused campsites at the same location."
"If you love large wooded spots with great lake views and lots of deer to watch....this is your park. Located in a very nice part of Georgia with so many places to go and see."
"There was a nice flat area to set up food, bonfire, chairs, games and to lounge around with family and the dogs. Bathrooms were nice and close to campground, within walking distance."
"Communication with the main number for the campground went through the Margaritaville Campground nearby. Separate direct lines to the camp office and security were provided after arrival."
$40 - $275 / night
"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."
"I camped at Red Top regularly when I lived in Georgia 28 years ago. I’ll definitely be returning."
$27 - $275 / night
"Fort Yargo is in the Winder Ga area and is close to Helen, Jefferson, Athens and Atlanta. Entering the campground is a nice paved road and leads to tent camping, cabins, yurts and RV sites."
"This is one of the few state parks in Georgia with yurts and also has a great flat biking trail. The lake allows for kayaking and boating and some yurts are actually right on the lake."
"The offices closes at 6:30, but if you don’t get there on time like we did they leave your reservation info outside the door."
$64 / night
"I use this park strictly for sporting events as it’s close by and is relatively quiet considering how close it is to the highway. I have no complaints."
"Nice resort and it’s close to the battery where the braves play baseball. The pizza place is soooo yummy, make sure you check it out. There are so many little ponds nearby and such cute little homes."
$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."
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!
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!
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.
GuideI stayed almost a week in space 81. When I made my reservation, I could not get a 50A site so reserved a 30A site. I called Sweetwater Creek and with no fuss, they rearranged things so that I could have a site with 50A. Wonderful service!
Everything was handled via text and email messages before I arrived. Once on-site, I never saw an employee or an office. Had I needed anything, I had been instructed to call/text Jonathan. He was sure prompt in replying before I arrived so I am sure it would all have been fine had I needed him during my stay. It was kind of weird not checking in at an office but, honestly, I can't complain. The site was clean and the utilities worked.
Sweetwater Creek RV Reserve is definitely urban. The sites aren't much wider than the trailers. You definitely won't sit outside for the scenery. Maybe 2/3 to 3/4 of the sites looked to be occupied by long-term residents but all of the units looked to be in good repair. My wife and I definitely felt safe. There are not many choices for RVs in the Atlanta metro area. When we come back to Atlanta, we will stay here again.
I gave this four stars instead of five because a) the pavement is so deteriorated that it is almost moon craters, and b) the"scenery" just plain sucks. But for a safe place to hook up and stay, Sweetwater Creek RV Reserve gets five stars.

RangerWinding Waters is a new, huge, and beautiful RV resort. This is not a campground, but a resort-style RV park with no shortage of amenities and activities. Nightly rate is very reasonable for all the bells and whistles you get. If you are just looking for a cheap, relaxing overnight with no frills, this is not the place for you. If you are looking for a fun family vacation spot to bring the kids, look no further.
Just outside Atlanta, the location is prime and beautiful, along the Etowah river. You can fish, kayak, or just relax. There is no shortage of activities for children. The resort's pool is a huge beach-style pool with a hot tub and even a huge waterslide. There is a large playground and huge dog run. They have a large clubhouse and ball courts.
We booked one of their cheaper sites, a classic pull-thru site. To say the least, it was the TIGHTEST pull thru site we have ever booked. We have never had to adjust and shimmy around in a pull thru site before, the whole point is to pull in once and bam you're set up. We could barely even squeeze our tow vehicle (10ft bed dually) into the designated parking spot without sticking out. Even the back in sites would have been a little more roomy. But hey, for all the amenities (that we didn't even use since we were just stopping over for a night) the price isn't awful. For a bit more, you can get your own private dog run or patio furniture.
We were pretty overwhelmed with the sheer amount of RVs in this place. Mostly all big rigs too. It was packed and they have so many sites. So many kids running around, and our neighbor's dog was off leash and ran over to my dog when I tried to take him potty. There are no walking paths in the resort, so people (and kids) are forced to run around on the streets, which are pretty narrow, winding, and uncomfortable to drive a big rig on. Just in general A LOT going on, very busy place. Great place if you like resort style parks, but not fun for an overnight. Since it's new there's no shade at all, so I can't imagine how hot it is in the summer and with all the big rigs blasting their a/c, they may run into electrical issues. But they planted some trees which should alleviate that a bit.
The rules list is pretty strict and extensive, with a bunch of extra fees for weird things like early check-in and personal golf carts. Make sure you read through everything thoroughly before you book. Some rules might be deal breakers for some people. Staff was very kind to us and we wish them the best with their new RV resort!
GuideWe stayed at site 21 and had a great time. Decent bathrooms/ bath house. Sites were on the water and great sizes
TravelerPerfect time and very quiet this time of the year
