Stone Mountain Park Campground accommodates pets at all of its campsites, with leashed dogs welcome throughout the property's tent sites, RV spots, cabins, and glamping options. Atlanta-Marietta RV Park maintains pet-friendly policies across its facility, though sites are limited in size with no campfires permitted. Jones RV Park provides basic pet accommodation with full hookups for longer stays, making it practical for travelers with dogs needing proximity to Atlanta. Most campgrounds require pets to remain on leashes no longer than 6 feet, with designated areas for pet waste disposal. The sites at Stone Mountain offer lake views with convenient access to walking paths suitable for dog exercise, though park entry requires an additional $20 fee beyond camping costs.
Red Top Mountain State Park Campground's trail network offers multiple dog-friendly hiking options with lake access points where pets can cool off. Sweetwater Campground provides seasonal pet access from March through September with open spaces for walking dogs. Nearby veterinary clinics operate in Marietta and Kennesaw with emergency services available. Weather considerations include hot summer temperatures requiring extra water and shade for pets, while winter camping necessitates appropriate bedding for dogs. Wildlife encounters, particularly with geese at Stone Mountain, require keeping dogs properly leashed and supervised. Sites near highways may experience road noise that could disturb sensitive pets, though most campgrounds maintain quiet hours after 10 pm.

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.
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!!!
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.
ScoutWe are at spot 97 and was suppose to get 44. The host at the front office gave us a different spot that would be easier access to our 40ft 5th wheel. The view is fantastic. We brought 2 dogs which they enjoyed the scenery. They are firm on making sure pet owners have their leash on and do not free roam. A lot of deer just walking around. Bathrooms are in good shape. We plan on staying a week. No Wi-Fi so we are using hotspots on our cells. We have Verizon and showing 2 bar LTE.
LegendWe arrived and had an easy check-in since this was our third stay at Talona Ridge, again to attend an RV rally. After check-in, we headed to pull-through buddy site H-25 with full hookups in the lower level of the campground, which had three levels total. The cement pad was plenty long enough to position the rig for the sewer connection at the back of the pad, while still allowing us to put the patio down and park our F450 fully on the site. Water pressure was solid at 55–60 psi. Since this was a newer RV park, there were not many mature trees yet, so satellite connectivity was not an issue. We had 3 bars on Verizon and 2 bars of 5G on T-Mobile, and we chose to use our T-Mobile Home Internet instead of Starlink, which delivered 70.1 Mbps download speeds. The campground WiFi was above average as well, testing at 64 Mbps download. There was a shower house with laundry near this site, equipped with two large washers and dryers, and the laundry app made the process convenient. We enjoyed the large dog park, along with plenty of additional areas to walk our pups. Talona Ridge had a lot to offer and remained one of our favorite campgrounds—it truly felt like a resort.
GuideFort 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.
Very clean park and has Historical area, playground, tennis court, bike and hike trails. Not to mention beach and boating area.
Picnics, camping, boating biking and camping or just day use areas. Pet friendly and all around great park.
There is a small general store, but you are so close to everything if you need it, it's there.
Gread for the Georgia Bulldog crowd as its less then 30 minutes!
I recommend this park highly.
GuideAwesome grounds in a family and pet friendly atmosphere. Neighbors were kind and helpful. Very quiet and peaceful time. Walking the grounds was nice and hilly. There’s also trails in between areas and around the campground. If you like the water, bring your trunks, kayaks, and poles.
Stone Mountain Park Campground accommodates pets across its tent sites, RV spots, cabin rentals, yurt options, and glamping areas. Dogs must be leashed throughout the campground, with dedicated pet waste stations located near restroom facilities. Several campsites along the lake offer water access where pets can cool off during summer months. Atlanta-Marietta RV Park also accepts pets but maintains stricter policies with limited walking areas for dogs. Both campgrounds provide full hookups with water, electric, and sewer connections. Sites at Stone Mountain feature picnic tables and fire rings, while Atlanta-Marietta prohibits campfires completely. The tiny sites and lack of campfire options make Atlanta-Marietta less appealing for campers seeking traditional dog-friendly camping experiences.
Jones RV Park, located near Norcross, provides basic pet-friendly camping with gravel sites and a bathhouse for overnight guests. Highway noise can be noticeable but the proximity to Atlanta makes it popular for urban access. Dogs must remain leashed and supervised at all times on the property. Cracker Barrel in Kennesaw allows overnight RV camping in their parking lot with pets permitted outside on leashes. The parking area accommodates large rigs but sites are not level. Dobbins Lakeside Campground accepts pets but requires a Department of Defense identification card for base access. Red Top Mountain State Park Campground offers more natural surroundings for dog walking with thirty and fifty-amp hookups available. Nearby hiking trails provide excellent exercise opportunities for dogs, though owners should carry sufficient water during summer hikes.
