Being out hiking in the woods enjoying the scenery with her beloved dogs is another favorite hobby, and also checking out the Pokemon Go scene in whatever city she happens to be in at any given time (coffee and dog leash in hand).

The carving at Stone Mountain is well known as the largest bas-relief artwork in the world. But did you know that the 3,200-acre state park is also home to the largest family campground in Georgia? This place has all kinds of options for overnight stays, from a yurt village to camper and RV hookups to tent camping sites. Whether you’re a seasoned camper or just testing the waters, there are options for everyone at Stone Mountain Campground. Between the park itself, the amenities at the campground, and the many attractions in nearby Atlanta, there’s so much to do!
The yurts are a great option for those looking for a bit of a glamping experience.
These canvas structures are already set up, so there's no need to pitch a tent. They've got electricity, but no indoor water access. The safari tents are placed atop a wooden platform and come with a deck, grill, and picnic table.
Don't worry: if you're a traditionalist, you can still pitch a tent the old-fashioned way and set up camp at either a partial hook-up site or a primitive camping site.
This is such a beautiful place: you're right under the majestic and massive Stone Mountain, and many of the camp sites are right by Stone Mountain Lake.
