Stone Mountain State Park Campground
One of our favorite state parks
We’ve camped at Stone Mountain multiple times over the years. We tent-camped when my boys were small. Most recently in our RV (3-4 times in the past three years). It is a great park. The hiking is excellent. The campsites are large and spacious. The park is well-kept. Make sure you hike to the top. The views are great, and you can spend time at the Homestead farm in the valley below.
We camped here this past weekend and enjoyed it once again. We were at site 56. It is an excellent site on the stream, with no site immediately next to you, so there is lots of privacy. The firepit, picnic table, water, and electricity are all great. We had limited cell service for AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. We could send and receive text messages, but coverage was very spotty.
We will be back again in the Fall.

Great place
The campground, paths, and bathrooms were very clean. Beautiful views at Rock Falls. If we didn't have our dogs with us we would have done hikes longer than 4 miles.

Nice campground But……
Nice campground. Had a nice site on a little creek. Owner was nice. However, the shower house was the worst of any campground I have ever seen. Dirty, plumbing was a mess. Not sure if I was better off going in than when I came out.

Stone Mountain State Park Campground
Lovely campground and trails
Awesome place! Campgrounds were nice and spaced out, well maintained...we were right by a small stream that you could hear...stone loop mountain trail is incredible! Long and strenuous but all ages were hiking it...homestead was so neat to walk around at the base of the mountain. Only negative is there showers. Very frustrating....you have to push the shower head to get water...great way to conserve but it gave you no time to enjoy the water. Made it hard to shower and it came out blasting all over the place....only complaint :)
Mitch + Kristi N.GuideStone Mountain State Park Campground
fantastic hiking
the campground is very well maintained with lots of space between sites. shower / bathrooms are clean. we were in the electric loop. some of the non electric sites are not large enough for even a small pop up. the hiking here is some of our favorites in NC. mountains, waterfalls, old homesteads, there’s something for everyone.

Stone Mountain State Park Campground
Beautiful campground
I loved staying at this campground. My campsite had a lake view and was high enough to see over the tents that would be in front of me by the lake. Clean bathrooms, and friendly staff. A lot was going on that weekend so it was quite noisy across the lake. (Weddings, festivals, Highland Games) i can’t wait to go back.

Stone Mountain State Park = Awesome
I stayed here for three nights in early November, 2022. The camp sites are mostly level, well maintained and have tent pads, tables and fire rings. I chose a site that had water and electric hook-ups. The bathrooms were heated, clean and the men’ bathroom had two showers.

Wonderful park
Great place to spend a night. Everything open during the winter
Johnny T.ScoutStone Mountain State Park Campground
Fantastic State Park
Definitely visit the falls, it has a lot of stairs, but it is quite close/short walk, and very worth it! Also, the longer trails have amazing views, including the flora, the distant landscapes, and (chiefly) the spectacular rock formations.
Also good facilities in general. Am going back soon with a group, to explore even more of this park. Another good thing is how easy it is to access from the Triad or Charlotte, and even from Raleigh it isn't that bad of driving time. An extra bonus is all of the wineries nearby!

Stone Mountain State Park Campground
Nice campground
Cute little campground. Tent only or RV sites. Upper part of loop A is nice and woodsy. We stayed at site 15, up against a wooded hillside. We had some noisy neighbors but not too bad. Bathhouse was great. Sink for dishes there and a spigot nearby the site. Can buy ice and firewood at the office.
I took a hike up the hill behind this campsite and saw several deer.
You should look at Stone Mountain falls while you’re there. It’s only a 15/20 min hike from parking lot. There are A LOT of stairs to get to the bottom of the falls, but it is very worth it!

Carol J.GuideStone Mountain State Park Campground
Well maintained
We enjoyed our stay at Stone Mountain, especially the hiking and camping. We stayed on a weekend, and the campground was quiet. The B loop is nice, with most the sites having ample spacing but not very private. Great area for hiking and waterfalls. Restrooms were modern and clean.

Tanglewood Park
Excellent County Park with Plenty to Do
This is our local park so we're a bit spoiled. It was perfect for our first outing in our new 34' travel trailer. Plenty of shade in the campground which unfortunately makes backing a challenge in some sides dodging the trees. The park has great mountain biking, walking/hiking trails, horseback riding, gold, swimming, playgrounds and a great dog park. It's the place we go on the weekend as locals and a great place to visit for campers. Hosts were extremely friendly and do a fantastic job keeping the sides clean and cleared of even the smallest twigs and branches from the tree.
Casey L.LegendStone Mountain State Park Campground
Many choices
Many choices of what kind of site you want and honestly it wasn’t worth the money. Very expensive to get nice level sites. If you choose one of the least expensive sites they are very bumpy and not updated and still cost a lot in my opinion. It’s nice to have things to do on site but they still require a drive and additional fee. The hike to the top of the mountain was short but intense, great view at the top. Playgrounds were beautiful for the kids!!

Stone Mountain State Park Campground
My favorite
You just can't beat it. We camped here and didn't even leave. It has so much to do and see. We camped at RV site 40 and I think it's the best. There's a roaring large creek that flows behind the site and a grassy field full of deer beside it. Also we checked out the backpack hike camp spots (5) they're a good hike (1.5 mile uphill) but so beautiful, on the creek, 2 are near a small waterfall. They're spaced out about a quarter mile apart. We went in December and there wasn't many people there at all, maybe 4 other campers all weekend.

Favorite Spot
We truly love this campground- it’s our favorite spot!
There are amazing trails in this state park, if that’s your thing.
The bath house on the rv loop is nice and big. They keep it pretty clean. It’s definitely nicer than the bathhouses at many other state parks.
The sites are pretty spread out. They keep things well manicured.
