The best mountainous camping near Atlanta

·

Atlanta sits within striking distance of rugged mountain terrain, and for tent campers, that means quick escapes to forested ridges and lakeside clearings. You’ll find over 30 mountainous campsites here, with tent pitches starting at just $15 a night—average is around $45. Most sites offer basics like showers, toilets, and allow campfires, so you can top off a day of climbing, swimming, or fishing with a meal by the flames. If you want a spot with a view and tried-and-tested reliability, check out Brooks Lake, a Peace of Heaven (494 reviews). For something quieter, Matt's Front Porch (5 reviews) or Forest w/ firepit for primitive cam (2 reviews) offer more solitude. Pack layers—the weather can shift fast in the mountains—and don’t forget your fishing rod or hiking boots. Atlanta’s mountainous campsites put you closer to crisp air and quieter nights, just a short drive from the city limits.

Privately owned Brooks Lake, located just 25 miles east of Atlanta and 5 miles North of I-20 in Conyers, Georgia. We are a family-friendly , nature-centered campground where “the only rule is the Golden Rule.” Brooks Lake is a peaceful retreat to the outdoors where you can meditate or be as active as you wish. 56 acres of rolling hills, shaded bluffs, grassy plains, and a 50 acre spring fed lake with serious fishing for Bass, Bream, Crappie, or Catfish. For the more active individual you may rent canoes, or bring your own boats, paddle boards, small sail boats (troller motors, only). Complimenting Brooks Lake’s abundant green space are: > slow rolling banks great for fishing > other wonderful amenities such as pavilion rentals, picnic tables, individual fire pits, small cove for swimming, volleyball net, grassy sports field, and basketball pad. (All at your Own Risk. Also, No Lifeguards on Duty)! Restrooms available.
