My vote goes to Red Top Mountain State Park between Acworth and Cartersville. Stone Mountain itself is lovely (carving aside), the park is something akin to a Confederacy Amusement Park. It IS closer to Atlanta's center, however. If you like cycling, Red Top is not too far to access points to a jewel for Northwest Georgia, the Silver Comet Trail (40 miles from Smyrna to Rockmart complete with 700 ft tunnel, lovely span over Pumpkinvine Creek, etc).
