Stone Mountain Park, Ga and campground

We have a camping reservation at Stone Mountain Campground in during the third week of July. We've never been there before. Is the campground connected to the park? Can we walk to the park? Ride bikes? Does the campground have a shuttle? How many days should we estimate that it would take to get all things done in the park? We're trying to determine if we should be year passes. If we'll have to drive there and pay for parking, etc.

Thanks in advance.

    We stayed 5 nights in July 2013. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Would recommend the loop close to the pool. The rest of the sites you don't know what your gonna get. As stated above they could be unlevel, hard to access, small, or the fire pit could be in the wrong place. But lots for the kids to do and I highly recommend a full day downtown exploring.


    Running off the loop close to the pool (which is "trail F") is "trail C and Trail E", which are also premium sites. We use Stone Mountain Campground several times per year, and always try to get on Trail E but all of trail c and E have good sites.
