     Harrison Lake is a delightful spot to visit for more than one day, Amicalola Falls State Park and Lodge is a delightful spot to camp nearby; if you don't mind getting drenched, you can always go whitewater paddling on Amicalola Creek. For the period of the months of summer highs here at Harrison Lake get into the 80's, and the night is rather cooler of course, commonly in the 60's. All through the winter highs are in the 40's while Harrison Lake overnight low temperatures

Diamond Lure Campground

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....

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
19 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....
