The best ranch campgrounds near Atlanta, Texas

Atlanta’s ranch camping scene puts you right in the action, with over 30 options carved out across wide-open pastures, woods, and creekside clearings. Expect to pay around $40 a night, with some spots dipping as low as $35. You’ll find sites where horses graze nearby and evening fire pits keep things social. Showers, toilets, and pet-friendly policies are standard, so you won’t be roughing it. Swimming holes, well-marked hiking trails, and fishing ponds are part of the package on most ranches. Locals give top marks to Coppergate Ranch (83 reviews), Petra D.’s Land (21 reviews), and Rancho Del Sol Arena & Venue (4 reviews) for their space, easy access, and laid-back hosts. Most ranches are a quick drive from Atlanta’s center, but you’ll feel far from city noise once you’re there. Bring boots—the trails can get muddy after rain, but that’s half the fun.

Weekend Trip to Coppergate Ranch

Great place to camp with Lynda and Reston being great hosts! We got in very late due to an unseen emergency and Reston still escorted us to our camp site. The grounds were great with so much room to explore. The Haunt was awesome and being able to order breakfast the last day was so much easier for pack up.

Weekend Trip to Coppergate Ranch

We loved our first stay at Lynda’s. Ruston took care of us mainly from picking the best spot that suit us, we had a great time and this is the place if you want to experience the real “Southern Hospitality”. They have bathrooms, showers, even a kitchen, literally everything. It’s a 200 acres land so you won’t have to worry about bumping up with other campers, you can be as private or involved as you wish. We will be back for sure!! And thank y’all again for making this stay great for us.

Weekend Trip to Coppergate Ranch

It’s an ideal woodsy campsite with a picnic bench, clean outhouse as advertised, flat spots for tents and a pond. The frogs were not too loud at night by the pond - just the right amount of nature sounds. We took the row boat out and used the life jackets from the chest by the pond (beware of aggressive wasps in the chest! They keep wasp spray in the porta potty.) It was about a 1/3 mile walk (or bike ride) to the wedding venue to use the nice showers and kitchen. The VERY big and loud but VERY smart and friendly (don’t be scared) family dog guided us along the trail to and from the venue. Highlight for us! Lynda and Ruston were so welcoming and accommodating. We saw that is was supposed to rain by 5am and Ruston offered to move us closer to venue. (But we slept in our van so we could stay at the campsite.) And we got so lucky that we happened to be there for Easter Sunday and we were invited to the family breakfast and egg hunt. Perfect for our 4 year old and so thoughtful. Then we got to meet all the farm animals. Just a magical time!

Weekend Trip to Coppergate Ranch

We were luckily the only ones camping this weekend so they allowed us to camp wherever.☺️ we ended up by the catfish pond and absolutely enjoyed it! Our dogs were having so much fun swimming & we paddled out on the water. Hiking the property was pretty fun too! Their dogs did show up to say hi & even followed us around some of the property :) luckily our dogs are friendly. We loved it :)

2 nights at Coppergate Ranch

This camp ground is beautiful and peaceful. An abundance of dogwoods, pine, and other trees. Catfish pond was the first thing we saw when we got up in the morning. So calming watching the water and listening to the morning birds singing while we sipped our coffee. The hosts were extremely kind and helpful and always available. My family and I will be adding this wonderful site to our favorite campgrounds.
