Stone Mountain Park Campground

We have a 38' 5th wheel that we tow with a crew cab PU with a full bed.. The staff was very nice and services were good. However the site we had was a challenge for our size rig. It was on a slope with a significant pitch. The site had partial pavement due to age resulting in a challenge to get the rig in. The site was not able to get the rig and PU onto the site cleanly. Departure involved going down a 6% grade rough road followed by a 6% grade up the other side.

Park is beautiful with all sorts of activities. Personnel were courteous and very helpful. However many sites were almost unusable. Our first was so uneven, that were not able to level our travel trailer We were given another site that was doable. The space next to ours had a similar experience and had to move. The same space
Was rented to another camper who was able to level but it was a driver as opposed to the former which was a trailer. The sites that are gravel do not seem to have a problem. The asphalt sites are in need of a lot of repair.

Overall it was a good experience but would advise reserving gravel sites.

We picked this location due to its proximity to downtown and family on the north side of town. We were happy that we chose this location and it was a great campground. Our site had views of the lake, through the foliage. Our site was fairly level and a large grass area was across from us. We went for a run one day and realized you have to pick your spot carefully since some are not level, at all. Downtown was about 30 minutes from this location but the drive is easy.

We planned to stay here to get close to Atlanta and after we got there, we found out about the rest of Stone Mountain Park, the attractions, and the Snow Mountain. Wow!

Getting to this park was pretty easy, just off a highway. Navigating inside was pretty easy - just a few hills. We had a back in spot but it was plenty big and FHU. I could see some older sites that were not as level or not all flat, but ours was good. You might ask during reservation about quality of the site - they seem to have an internal rating system and ours was an A.

Even without the attractions - we would stay at this park because it was good condition and the price was good compared to other options in the area.

Everything seemed clean and well kept. For trash - instead of dumpsters you put it by the street and they come around multiple times per day to pick it up.

Kids loved the playground near the campground and the pool was closed but looked fun. There was a covered pavilion that had a fire and was really nice on the snowy weekend we were there.

Propane was $4.50 a gallon when we were there but it seemed convenient so we refilled at the park.

As for the other attractions and things in the park, they were really fun as well. Different things for different times of year, but check it out. Also, before making online reservations, you might call campground about some special deals they have on attractions like buy one get one free.

We will be back next time we are in the area.

We camped here in June of 2017. The sites can be a bit uneven, so if you can check the spot before you park I'd suggest it. There are also waterfront spots "premium" and "non-premium" spots. We parked in the non-premium spot but still had an amazing waterfront view, we were just on the other side of the street from the waterfront spot. We paid way less than the premium price too! Their wifi connection was good, and we had access to electric and water, some sites include sewer as well but their views aren't as good. Dump station on site, small store, pool, and shuttle to and from Stone Mountain attractions. It's about 35 minutes from Atlanta and 20 minutes from Decatur so there are lots of cool things to see nearby as well.

Stone Mountain is a huge state park with lots to do. There were gorgeous hiking paths, the lake to kayak or canoe on, and of course Stone Mountain itself. There is also a laser light show (mainly geared toward families/kids) at night off the side of stone mountain.

Park is lovely with tons of fun things to do. Staff very friendly. Trash pickup on site. Baths nice and clean. Wifi useable and we were able to get decent tv reception from antenna. With all of this said, roads are rough and narrow. Most sites in loop O (water and electricity) were uneven with sites crumbling. If we weren't towing a large fifth wheel, we would have gone back and asked for a different site. Thing is, most sites are uneven. We did have a view of the lake and park is peaceful. Think they need to close part of it at a time and start leveling and widening. The trailer above was precariously parked so thankful Georgia isn't known for earth quakes.

We live close so we decided to try this for a short Mother's Day weekend. Let me start by saying the park is a great spot for 3-4 days. Lots of trails, lakes and activity options. They have an abundance of seasonal offerings and the laser show that, while a bit redneck, is a Georgia staple.

The campground and surroundings are very pretty and the pool and playground are amazing. But beyond that, the campsites are generally pretty rough. There are a variety, from full hookup, water/electric trailer sites, rustic tent sites, yurts and rentable campers. Of the 400+ sites, only about 1/4 are even half-way decent. The other 3/4 are absolutely horrible. There are some of the most uneven, downhill, rutted and busted up pads that I've ever seen. It's like they laid out this campground 35 years ago and never touched it again. The roads are almost as bad as the pads, rutted, busted up and just plain bad.

There are some really pretty sites sprinkled through the campground but for what you pay I'd expect better pads. They really need a full revamp of the park.

The pool was great, the bathrooms clean, wifi ranged from 0.1mps to 2mps...Almost unusable from our site. The camp store is nice and has camping basics. We stayed in an electric/water site and there are a few dump stations around.

There's a lot to do at Stone Mountain and it's the most convenient CG to Atlanta. But know that you'll be disappointed for how much you pay for what you get. Don't miss the hike to the top of the mountain. It's kinda tough but I've had 4 year olds do it.

We only stayed here one night but would have been nice to stay a bit longer. Site 435 is very level and has a nice view of the lake from above. Sites are not cheap including the $15 entrance few you have to pay (and is not reimbursemed). Wifi is not really useable, they shouldn't even advertise that they have free wifi it is so bad. We biked around the entire park which is pretty large. Somehow even with the amount of space it still seems busy with cars, trucks and people. Several options for walking/running trails. The location is nice for it's proximity to Atlanta as well.

This was our 2nd stay here. Site was just above the yurts & park models. We showed up and cold-hit them for space, there was no issue for not having reservations. Since last stay they've added yurts, park models, and a very nice, large playground area. Park is on a lake for fishing. Very popular for walking/biking/jogging. Our site was level, but too much tree cover for satellite reception (no big deal, cable on site). Easy access off the freeway. The $15 for initial entrance will smoke your roast...they should credit you the $15 back on your successful registration for a site. Lots of activity here.
