Stone Mountain Park Campground and Red Top Mountain State Park Campground provide pet-friendly options for camping near Roswell, Georgia.

Campsites include picnic tables, fire rings, and access to drinking water, with full hookup sites available for RVs. Waste disposal stations are located throughout the grounds for pet waste management. While specific dog play areas are not designated, many trails surrounding the campgrounds welcome leashed pets.

Pets must remain leashed at all times, and the park enforces a strict waste cleanup policy. Atlanta-Marietta RV Park provides convenient access to Atlanta attractions, though the park has limited space for dog walking and prohibits campfires.

ScoutThey have plenty of pads for pull behinds or the fancy RV. Plenty of hookups for all your needs. 2 pools, weight room, live music, restaurant, bar, dog park, dog bath, and close to all local stores.
GuideCampground is next to SR 411. Excellent facilities and staff. We stayed for 3 days and had an enjoyable time. Fished in the pond played corn hole. Ran our dogs every day at the dog park. Will definitely head up there again
ScoutThis Campground is amazing. The woman in the office is so nice and very helpful. They have workers escort you to your site to make sure everything is OK. The man who escorted us was very nice, and made sure we knew where everything was (even after being told at the office). I loved that. The grounds are super clean. There are walking trails, a lake, a beach, and they even have things for dogs! (Dog bath, dog beach, dog park, ect). I'd recommend this place 1,000 times over!!!
LegendWe stayed at Winding Waters Riverfront RV Resort for four nights after picking up our new 5th wheel toy hauler from Three Way Campers in Marietta to thoroughly test all of the RV's systems while remaining close to the dealership if any issues arose. We followed the emailed arrival instructions, checked in quickly, and were escorted to pull-through Site 89 with full hookups. The staff was friendly, service-oriented, and very accommodating throughout our stay. We spent our first night in the pull-through before moving to a river-view back-in site. The staff initially suggested Site 190, but after we noticed it had very little yard space, they happily moved us to Site 193, which better suited our needs. The resort offers several unsecured Wi-Fi networks; we selected the strongest signal and averaged 82 Mbps download and 9 Mbps upload. We received two bars on both Verizon and T-Mobile, and our T-Mobile Home Internet worked well. We didn't bring Starlink on this trip, but with very few trees throughout the main campground, it should perform well in most sites. The pull-through sites are better spaced than many campgrounds of this type, although we still wouldn't describe them as spacious. We appreciated the PVC chairs and round tables found at many sites instead of the typical picnic table, and there are five"Paw Pen" pull-through sites with private fenced pet areas. The nearby dog park consists of two small fenced runs that are adequate for potty breaks but not really large enough to throw a ball. Although the water park and numerous family-oriented amenities are not typically what we look for in a campground, Winding Waters was an excellent place to shake down our new rig.
TravelerGreat for an overnight stop while traveling.
Not so great for a fun weekend.
No firepits or tables at many of the sites.
Bathroom seriously dated.
Dog park looked clean, if small. Playground had some "old school" equipment great for older kids.
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
GuideLived 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. This place is world renowned for its fireworks and laser show but you have to go off the pavement to truly fall in love with Stone Mountain! This place is great for everyone. I mean everyone, from free runners to hikers and all you folk that like to “camp” in your RVs. Visit this place anytime of year and you will not be disappointed. Apparently it’s rated #1 as the best place to camp in Georgia. I’m more into the nature only kind of camping but that’s not everyone’s cup a tea. Stone Mountain has something for everyone.
GuideAwesome hiking. Extremely pet friendly, lakeside campsite
GuideSeveral options available. RV hook ups, camp grounds, and yurt rentals. I did not rent a yurt but have heard good things from friends who have. Very clean camp grounds, if you don't mind a familes close by. Can set up next to the lake. Pet friendly and several children and families around. Ton of activities around stone mountain park.
Campgrounds near Roswell, Georgia include several options located on lakes, particularly Lake Allatoona and Lake Lanier. Most sites offer camping from spring through early fall, though some remain open year-round. The campgrounds range from 20-40 minutes from Roswell, providing access to water recreation during Georgia's hot summer months when average temperatures reach 90°F.
Hiking at Stone Mountain Park: The park offers hiking opportunities with varying difficulty levels, including the climb to the summit. "We loved these grounds. They were clean and there was easy access to bathrooms. The hike to the top was a challenge, but the views were worth it," shares Judy B. about Stone Mountain Park Campground.
Lake activities at Victoria Campground: Lake Allatoona provides opportunities for boating, fishing, and swimming. "This place is well conserved. Lots of sites are waterfront or has access to the lake, that is a plus. The lake area is tranquil and quiet. My site (53) had water, electricity, grill, firepit, a table, & access to the lake (10-steps-trail)," reports Adriana C. from her stay at Victoria Campground.
Explore historic trails: Many campgrounds connect to historical sites and trails. "We also love the historical trails that lead to the old civil war mill. It's a great hike," notes Elaine G. about camping at Sweetwater Campground.
Lakefront sites: Many campsites offer direct lake access and views. "We camped right next to the beach and the kids loved it. Beautiful place," reports Rodney G. about his stay at Sweetwater Campground. The shoreline sites are popular during summer months when water activities are at their peak.
Wooded privacy: Tree cover provides shade and separation between sites. "We camped with my parents in the RV section of the campground, it was beautifully wooded and offered plenty of space/privacy from other campsites and was still a short walk from the bathhouse," notes Dalhya L. from her experience at Stone Mountain Park Campground.
Wildlife viewing: Deer and birds are common sights at several campgrounds. "Friendly staff, with the Jr ranger program still going with the help of adult campers during covid. Still so much fun and so clean and beautiful!!" shares Cheryl C. about Red Top Mountain State Park Campground.
Alcohol policies vary: Some campgrounds strictly prohibit alcohol consumption with fines. "Nice campground. If you enjoy having a beer while camping don't come here... Ranger pulls up and gave us both tickets. We had a mandatory court appearance, turns out each ticket is $280.00. No warning," cautions Rick B. about Shady Grove Campground.
Highway noise: Proximity to roads can impact tent camping experience. "This park is about 30-40 minutes outside of Atlanta right off of I-75. If you are in a tent... you will hear I-75 traffic all night... the drone of the highway will remind you. There is a train that blows its whistle that will wake you up 3 times each night," warns Jeff E. about Red Top Mountain State Park.
Reservation timing: Popular lakeside sites fill quickly, especially during summer weekends. "Stayed three times August-October with kayaks. Two times had nice lake proximity/view. Beach is nice for the kids. Single dump station tends to line up on Sunday but I suppose that's part of the deal," notes AR M. about their stay at Bald Ridge Creek.
Beach access: Campgrounds with swimming areas provide built-in activities. "Lake-side spot would have been awesome, but overall very happy with our stay. Spots are large and spacious," mentions Rivers P. about Twin Lakes RV Park. Though swimming isn't allowed in all lakes.
Playground amenities: Some campgrounds have dedicated play areas. "There's all kind of activities for the kids. They have free transportation within the park/campground area. Helpful staff too," shares Harvey B. about Stone Mountain Park Campground.
Tent pad hardness: Some sites require special stakes for securing tents. "The tent pad was large but extremely hard to drive tent stakes into... smaller stakes worked better," advises Jeff E. from his stay at Red Top Mountain State Park.
Site leveling challenges: Many sites require leveling equipment. "Sites were very narrow. Very narrow roads in the campground with lots of pot holes. Not the easiest state park to pull a travel trailer in," warns Brock D. about Red Top Mountain State Park Campground.
Campground navigation: Some parks have tight turns and narrow roads. "This is one of our favorite campgrounds. The view of the lake is beautiful. We always stay on site 100 it's right on the water," recommends Mary B. about staying at Sweetwater Campground.
Dump station access: Holiday weekends can create long waits at dump stations. "Our site is very private. Dump station very easy to get into. Nice playground for the kids, Over the air TV worked great," shares the reviewer "5Dudes" about Payne Campground.
