    Hood Pond is a very beautiful lake in beautiful surroundings. At Hood Pond you always meet someone from Cornelia, and camping is available at Mossy Creek Campground. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Chattahoochee River, and nearby you come across the Whitly Gap Trail which is a great hiking trail. This lake is so wonderful. If you came for an overnight stay Leisure Acres Campground is a good place to camp; going  
   for a hike on the Appalachian National Scenic Trail is always a splendid adventure.
Hood Pond is a wet location that gets a good deal of precipitation; all through March this area sees the most rain while October is the month with the least amount of precipitation. This is no site for people who don’t like to have a good time. Cleveland Days Inn is a great location to get some rest; while you're here, you could also go to picturesque Dorsey Pond. After
 
               a long day outdoors Econo Lodge Helen is a delightful place to spend a night or two, and the Raven Cliff Falls Trail is a great hiking trail close by.
This lake is so wonderful. Throughout the months of summer highs here at Hood Pond reach the 80's. All through the dark hours of summer temperatures descend down into the 60's. The cold days of the winter come with highs in the 40's while Hood Pond nighttime low temperatures all through the winter are in the 20's. If you come at the right time of year, Little John Creek offers some splendid whitewater, and Seabolt Pond is a nearby lake that you could take a look at.

Lake Qualatchee
I notice that there is a Lake Qualatchee a few miles northwest of Cleveland, Georgia. I have never visited the site. Bartram's list of Cherokee towns included a ''Qualatche,'' but it was reportedly on the Flint River, too far away to have a connection with this lake. But, Mooney says a town called Qualatchee was somewhere on the headwaters of the Chattahoochee River. Not much else seems to have been written about the town, and I am not yet sure how the lake came to have its name....

Raven Cliff Falls Trail
11 miles away
The family hiked to Raven Cliff Falls on 2/15/09. It is 2.5 miles one way and is fairly level with a slight uphill slope. It follows a creek for most of the way passing several smaller scenic falls. The main feature is a towering cliff with the falls dropping between a slot in the cliffs. Very impressive and worth the 5 mile hike....

Enota Resort and Campground
16 miles away
... is more than a campground and mountain retreat - it is a vision for how we should honor the land and each other. My husband, definitely NOT the camper type, loves this place because of its natural beauty, peaceful atmosphere and the ever-present babbling brook(s) that borders most of the campsites. We have camped here in our camper van several times in the past 3 years and love to hike up to the AT and the waterfalls, or watch the kids fish for trout in the pond in front of the Lodge The land is pristine, laced with waterfalls and streams totally accessible to both RV camping (full hook-ups) or tent camping. The cabins are rustically charming and recently more modern motel-type rooms have been added within view of the waterfall. Some of the structures on this property are CCC-built and the staff also honors Enota's Cherokee heritage as well, with a sweat lodge, sacred circle, drumming and the occasional Native American presenter, who happened to be leading the Sweat Lodge ceremonies when we were there this spring. We discovered that Enota is a non-profit ecological and teaching ...

Coosa Backcountry Trail
19 miles away
...us hiking we reached the junction of the Coosa and Appalachian Trail. We pushed on for another hour or two until we reached the top and I saw the better than I expected shelter at the summit of Blood Mountain. We staggered in about two at a time a few minutes apart, each small group repeating the same emotion of screaming here it is, or we found it, finally. We camped in the shelter with two other parties and proceeded to drink the liquor we brought with us which helped us keep our mind off the fact that the temp was falling under twenty degrees making for a cold night. The next morning the mountain was covered in ice and light snow. The view was spectacular as you can stand on a HUGE rock that is right next to the shelter. Blood mountain seems to tower way over the surrounding mountains which is great for taking pictures. While the journey up which takes about a full day if you follow the trails we took, takes merely a few hours to get back to Vogel as we stayed on the Coosa trail the whole way back. I throughly enjoyed the hike with my friends and look forward to building on my fir...
