Why not pop by Etowah River Watershed Dam Number Nine while you're here, and you can have a good hiking adventure along the Brookshire Creek Trail. And that's not all you can do here at Bruce Lake. If you don't mind getting dripping wet, you can always go whitewater paddling on Etowah River, and a splendid close by hotel is Best Western Dawson Village Inn. This lake is so wonderful.

This is a Super Campground, but it might be important for you to know that it is ''clothing optional'' ... you wear as much or as little as you want, but don't be surprised to see people wearing just a smile.? Also, the name as now changed to Paradise Valley Resort.? It is family oriented and there is a daily fee....

Etowah River Campground
10 miles away
I love camping at Etowah River Campground.  It is secluded and away from the traffic of the big lakes and Corps of Engineers campgrounds.  The owners are VERY friendly and will do anything to make your stay pleasurable.  You can hike and ride your ATV nearby, float the Etowah River or just relax.  There is no reason to run to town after your arrival.  The campsites are also very spacious and roomy, the bath house is clean and well maintained and the grounds are well groomed.  I can't wait to go back.  It may just be the only place I camp from now on....
