I checked Good Sam, KOA and Allstays (from a search here) and it appears that Stone Mountain is the ONLY place nearby to legally park an RV for a campout.Anybody have any "secrets" you'd like to share ??No more than 20 miles outside the outer loop.Stone Mountain looks OK but it's always nice to have options.

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 ParksLake 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.Markiemark:C

It is a very poor choice.

High Falls and Indian Springs are both State Parks just off I-75 just outside Metro Atlanta on the Southside. Dobbins Joint Reserve Base in Marietta has a small RV Park on base. Lots of RV parks, state parks, COE parks and military campgrounds around Lakes Lanier and Allatoona.
