The best camping near Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site guide

Overview

About

This national historic site that honors a true hero of the Civil Rights Movement. You can visit King's childhood home, his final resting place, and the Ebenezer Baptist Church (all within a 5-minute walk of the Visitor Center). The Visitor Center contains beautifully curated materials to walk you through King's story. Make sure you watch the 30-minute video on his life (and don't be surprised if you feel some tears welling up). Prepare to spend some time at the church, where videos of King's sermons and speeches are on a loop.

A ticket is required to visit King's childhood home. The tour is definitely worthwhile, led by Park Rangers who really evoke the time period. Tours are small, limited to 15 people, and you can only buy tickets on the day of your visit, so be prepared to wait in line. While there's no restaurant on site, nearby spots will serve up some of the best peach cobbler you've ever tasted.

Find glamping, hostels and suburban cabins for your Atlanta stay on Hipcamp. You can also pitch your tent on nearby farms, next to picturesque lakes, or on horse ranches.
