Just so beautiful and awesome. Camp host was lovely and our site could not have been more perfect. Internet said it was a walk up but it was a drive up. Site 52, I’m convinced it has to be the best one there. It adjoins via a mild staircase to 53 and would be perfect for two families to have. It’s right on the water and the sunset was phenomenal. Love it a lot. Electric and water, picnic table and fire ring.

We went over the Halloween weekend. What great fun. Lots of events for families and kids. Even us retired people got into the spirit! Sites were well maintained with space between sites. Bathrooms were clean all the time. Cell service was at best 2 bars on all networks. But that’s okay. Fall colors were abundant. If you had a small boat, canoe or kayak the lake is perfect for fishing or just enjoying. The only drawback was some road noise from Fairplay road. Otherwise I can’t say enough of how much we liked this park. Site 16 October.

Stone Mountain Park Campground
Welcome center is nice, but the roads and asphalt sites are crumbling. We had a back in site that was fairly level. No real privacy from neighboring sites.

Site 18: Don’t let the “hardest site to back into” reviews scare you! There’s a trick.
We stayed at Site 18, which has a reputation for being one of the hardest sites to back into. There’s definitely a trick to it! Pull your truck forward along the site, then pull out toward the site across from you, making an S-turn. From there, line it up and back in. It's tricky, but doable!
We loved this area and packed a lot into our stay. We visited BJ’s Apple Orchard, stopped at Burt’s Pumpkin Farm (where I somehow ended up with a 150-pound pumpkin 😂), had dinner at Cascades Restaurant, and took the easy way to see the falls.
The fenced-in sites were a huge plus, especially with our pups. It gave them more room to roam. The bathrooms and showers are individual rooms, which was nice, and the welcome center is one of the nicest we’ve come across.
And then there’s THE HILL. I was born and raised in the Smokies, so I’m no stranger to mountain roads, but the incline is no joke! The reviews are absolutely not exaggerating when they say it’s steep. Come prepared!
I have T-mobile and husband has Xfinity and we both have great service. Wifi in the campground gets the job done for Netflix at night.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay. Beautiful area, plenty to explore, dog-friendly sites, and a campground we’d visit again. 🏕️🥾

Beautiful views with lake front camping
Campsite was the perfect lake front spot for our dog’s last camping adventure with us. The resort felt super safe for 2 females traveling with their dog and all campsites and bathrooms were super clean.

Lakefront Overlook
We stayed at Site #45, and it quickly became one of our favorite campsites because it felt more like a wooded overlook, perched above the lake. The breeze coming off the water kept us comfortable enough to enjoy a campfire even on a hot August evening.
The site fit our 14x10 tent comfortably, but I wouldn’t recommend anything larger. There isn’t a true tent pad, and you’ll notice the slope while sleeping—but the view from inside the tent was priceless. We experienced a four-hour thunderstorm and didn’t have any standing water at our site afterward.
⚠️ The slope becomes much steeper near the shoreline, so I wouldn’t recommend this site for toddlers or anyone with mobility concerns.
🛝 Our 7-year-old loved fishing from the shoreline and thought the steep slope made the perfect slide to get back down to the water. Built-in slide + dirty shorts = happy camper. 😂
🔥 The site includes a clean fire ring with an adjustable cooking grate and a separate standing charcoal grill.
🦟 We didn’t have any issues with mosquitoes during our stay.
🚰 The shared water pump wasn’t working during our visit.
🚽 The bathhouse was spacious, clean, and only a short walk away.
🚗 A community wagon is parked near the bathhouse for campers to use when hauling gear between their vehicle and campsite. Loved that!
A few tips:
🪵 The Visitor Center sells $6 bundles of firewood and has a nice selection of souvenirs.
🐜 Plenty of flies and large ants, so keep your food put away and your tent zipped.
🪲 Cicadas were loud at night. I loved it, but our 7-year-old slept with his wireless headphones on. If you’re a light sleeper, you may want to pack earplugs if you’re camping here June-August.
🎣 We caught more bluegill fishing from our campsite than we did from the fishing dock.
🌅 If you’re looking for one of the best views in the campground and don’t mind sleeping on a slight incline, Site #45 is well worth considering.

Heavenly! Red Top Mountain State Park
Spot #50 is perfection! Feels like you live alone on a tiny peninsula. Perfect place to explore trails, go fishing, enjoy sunset, and just be.
Guide to Suwanee
Stone Mountain and surrounding areas offer a variety of cabin accommodations for overnight stays, ranging from rustic to modern. Cabins near Suwanee, Georgia are positioned along Lake Lanier and other smaller lakes within a 30-mile radius. The region's moderate climate allows for year-round cabin camping, though summer bookings require advance planning due to higher demand during the peak May-September season.
What to do
Hiking trails: Fort Yargo State Park Campground features multiple hiking options with varying difficulty levels. One visitor noted, "The 12 walk-in sites are waterfront to the lake- perfect for kayaking or paddle boarding. If you want privacy, but dont want to 'hike-in' all your camping gear, I highly recommend these sites!"
Water recreation: Red Top Mountain State Park Campground provides direct access to Lake Allatoona. According to a camper, "We spent a weekend here in section O. It was a nice, spacious campsite with a nice picnic table and partial view of the lake even though we didn't have 'lake view' site."
Mountain exploration: For those willing to drive an hour north, Vogel State Park Campground offers mountain cabin experiences at 2,500 feet elevation. A visitor shared, "The campsite was beautiful and peaceful. The trails along the lake were nice and the dogs enjoyed it."
What campers like
Lake views: Stone Mountain Park Campground features cabins overlooking the water. A recent visitor commented, "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. Also had a little view of a lake down below."
Clean facilities: Most cabin properties maintain regular cleaning schedules. One camper at Don Carter State Park Campground reported, "A great place to camp with lots of hiking trails; there's even a canoe trail! Campground is well maintained and bath houses are clean."
Proximity to attractions: Many cabins offer convenient access to local attractions. A visitor to Margaritaville noted, "We went to a Braves game one night since it is only an hour away and made may fond memories."
What you should know
Varying accessibility: Some cabins require physical effort to access. A camper at Red Top Mountain State Park Campground observed, "The tent pad was large but extremely hard to drive tent stakes into... smaller stakes worked better. The bathhouse was an uphill hike probably 300 ft away."
Reservation timing: Peak seasons require advance booking, particularly for lakefront cabins. At Margaritaville, weekdays offer more availability: "We were here on Monday and Tuesday, extremely quiet. Empty beach/restaurant area and beach bar."
Site selection: Not all cabin sites are created equal. A Don Carter visitor advised, "Site 7 is separate from the others and has the whole point except there is a trail behind the site. No easy, sandy water access unless you go to the nice beach they have."
Tips for camping with families
Activity options: James Shackleford Memorial Park offers multiple recreation opportunities. A visitor noted, "Not much to say about it pretty much all the sites around the lake area the same in Hall county Gwinnett it was very peaceful nice people was able to find plenty of outdoor stuff to do."
Kid-friendly amenities: Some properties offer dedicated children's areas. At Stone Mountain Park Campground, one camper reported, "There's all kind of activities for the kids. They have free transportation within the park/campground area. Helpful staff too."
Educational opportunities: Several cabin locations provide learning experiences. A visitor to Vogel State Park Campground shared, "One of F D Roosevelt's Civilian Conservation Corps masterworks so important to this parks existence that they have a museum on site describing in great detail the transformation of this particular valley."
Tips from RVers
Site leveling: Prepare for potential challenges with uneven sites. A camper at Stone Mountain Park Campground noted, "The only downfall was that the trailer needed a lot of leveling. But it was totally worth it. Our site was on the lake."
Road conditions: Some cabin areas have difficult access roads. At Amicalola Falls State Park Camping, a visitor cautioned, "Roads are extremely steep getting to the campground."
Campsite spacing: Consider the proximity to neighboring sites when selecting a cabin. At Red Top Mountain State Park, one RVer observed, "Heavily wooded sites that are not well maintained. Very narrow roads in the campground with lots of pot holes. Not the easiest state park to pull a travel trailer in."
