NOTICE: Work is being done on the lake. Due to this work, we will
experience low water levels in the upper area of the lake through the
end of winter.
This west Georgia park is best known for having the largest sand
swimming beach of any Georgia state park. It is a recreational haven for
water lovers looking for boating and fishing opportunities as well.
Visitors can enjoy camping, picnicking, miniature golf, volleyball and
horseshoes. A small lodge located near the beach features six units,
each with a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, living area and
bedroom. The park is named after a local businessman who operated the
property as a private park from 1954 until 1971.
