     At Sconti Lake Dam near Cox Lake there are some attention-grabbing things to see, and Disharoon Cove is a magnificent place to stop at. This lake is so wonderful. Some of the water close by flows, like Blackwell Creek; float down the rapids of Amicalola Creek in a kayak. Cox Lake is great enough to spend more than a day at, Under the Hemlock is a great local campground, and while you're here, you could also pop by pretty Sconti Lake.

Diamond Lure Campground
12 miles away
I have been going to this since I was a little boy...I'm 37 now. It is a wonderful campground. It holds many memories for me as I am sure it will for you....I have stayed at the Diamond lure in the past and found the campground and the operaters to be of a high quality. There is fishing and boating on the private lake too....

Etowah River Campground
17 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....

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....
