Anybody have any "secrets" you'd like to share ??
No more than 20 miles outside the outer loop.
First secret is Atlanta is a BIG spreadout city and suburbs and communities extend out 20-50 miles from the outer loop, with this demand, not many invested in securing land and building nice campgrounds.
Stone Mountain, is actually REALLY nice, with a lot of activities in the park, as well as easy access into “ATLANTA”, with still a woodsy camping experience. (a little pricey, but you get what you pay for).
State Parks are nice options in GA, Fort Yargo and/or Red Top Mountain, closer to Atlanta, nice options, will be out further than the 20 miles.
GA State Parks
Lake Lanier Islands, north of Atlanta up I-85/985, probably right at 25-30 miles north of outer loop – Okay, a little pricey, and last I saw the campground was let go…..Stone Mtn MUCH better.
The other Campgrounds that may hit the radar, most likely are not really campgrounds, more trailer parks, in the Atlanta area.
