    Beautiful Howell Lake has much to offer visitors. This lake is so wonderful. Howell Lake is fine enough to spend more than a day at, Stone Mountain Park Family Campground is a fine local campground. And that's not all you can do here at Howell Lake. The view of gorgeous Stone Mountain near Howell Lake is great, and Lanford Lake Dam is a gorgeous place, beyond doubt worth taking a look at. For the period of the summertime here at Howell Lake, high temperatures  
   generally get into the 80's. When the night sets in temperatures fall down into the 60's. Daytime highs through the winter are in the 40's, and overnight lows at Howell Lake all through the winter commonly dip into the 20's.
You'll meet a lot of people from Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta here, and for you golfers we recommend close by Southland Golf Course. This lake is so wonderful. If you need a place to stay Marriott Evergreen Conference Resort is a great
 
               choice, unsurprisingly you could also pop by Lanford Lake if you're here; it's not far at all. Dry warm beds await you at Marriott Stone Mountain Inn Conference Center, and hey, Little Stone Mountain Creek is a glorious local stream.
A glorious site to camp here at Howell Lake is Stone Mountain Park, and a tour to Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area is worthwhile. Howell Lake sees pretty high levels of rainfall; March is when you get the most rain here; October meanwhile is the driest month. Looking for something in the neighborhood of Howell Lake? Rock Bridge Lake is close by, and whitewater paddling is perfect on Yellow River.

Simmons Lake
Just thought you should know this, but Simmons Lake essentially doesn't exist anymore. I'm an Atlanta native who grew up in DeKalb County and attended Lakeside High School; back when I was a teenager I saw work done on the neighboring Echo Lake, which is surrounded by nice middle-class homes. From what I can tell, the lake was dredged, I guess in order to save it, and Simmons Lake (across Briarcliff Road) was essentially sacrificed for its sake, taking the excess silt from Echo Lake. There's still a small pond there, quite shallow, in the areas closet to Briarcliff Road and Echo Lake, but nothing like what I once knew; over the years even the trees and undergrowth have reclaimed most of the area the lake had once covered when I was a boy...
