Clean park. Nice place if you're looking for a good view and some peace & quiet. Nice location if you want to have an elopement as well!! The scenery was beautiful for it. I love coming here when I can.
Great ramp. $5 per launch or $40 annual pass. Ample parking. Restrooms on the way out.
Perfect outing for family and pets. There are many picnic tables with grills for cookouts. Many are secluded for nice private cookout. Restrooms, docks, and the beach are a plus to this place.
Boat parking was clean and didn’t encounter any problems. Don’t use very often but seems well kept. 2 docks still open with lake 8 feet low. Also plenty of docks on tournament area.
Beautiful, quiet park on Lake Lanier. Great for humans and pets! We go there multiple times a week.
