The best camping near Atlanta with hiking

·

Atlanta’s hiking campsites keep things simple: over 430 options, all geared toward travelers who want trails just outside their tent flap. Expect to pay around $40 a night, with some spots dipping to $20. Toilets, pet-friendly policies, and campfires come standard on most sites. You’ll find campsites tucked in pine forests or edging quiet creeks—a few steps from local trails. Top picks include Coppergate Ranch (83 reviews), Barefoot Gee's (66 reviews), and Petra D.’s Land (21 reviews). When you’re not on the trail, fishing, swimming, or spotting wildlife fill the downtime. Pack light, plan your route, and don’t expect silence—the cicadas here never quit.

This is a quite spot in east texas. There’s woods on one side of us and a cattle/ quarter horse ranch on the other. We have calm red angus cattle on the property and their guard donkeys. If you’d like to feed them just let us know! You can fish near by at a public fishing spot. We will eventually be able to offer fishing on the property, we are working on stocking. If there ends up being an interest in hunting we can look into that. This is a primitive site so bring your gear! Mount Pleasant and New Boston are about 30 minutes away with restaurants and shopping.
