Tips & Recommendations

  • 1Always call ahead to confirm specific pet policies, as some campgrounds limit the number of pets per site or have breed restrictions, and bring current vaccination records just in case.
  • 2Pack a pet first aid kit including tick removal tools, as Georgia's forests harbor ticks year-round, and check your dog thoroughly after each hike—Lyme disease is present in the state.
  • 3Bring plenty of water and a collapsible bowl, especially for summer camping, and consider a cooling vest for dogs during warmer months.
  • 4Georgia state parks require pets to be leashed at all times with a maximum six-foot leash, and they're not permitted in swimming areas, playgrounds, or buildings, so plan accordingly.
