     If you come at the right time of year, Chattahoochee River offers some brilliant whitewater, and North Pond is a nearby lake that you could visit. Get yourself into a kayak and hit Line Creek; a glorious nearby hotel is Sleep Inn & Suites. Jackson Lake mostly gets a good deal of rain; most of the rain falls during March; the driest month of the year is September. Summer at Jackson Lake comes with high temperatures in the 80's while night lows are ordinarily  
   in the 60's. High temperatures all through the wintertime are normally in the 40's with winter lows in the 20's overnight here at Jackson Lake.
Jackson Lake in fact is in the middle of a scenic outdoors paradise. There's so much to do here at Jackson Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Camp Truitt-fulton is a perfect place for that, and if you get bored of Jackson Lake you could also pop by close by Joy Lake. If you came to camp Pirkle Campground
 
               is a wonderful spot to do that. This lake is so wonderful. Why not pop by Jackson Lake Dam if you're here, and after a long day outdoors Econo Lodge Jonesboro is a nice spot to spend a night or two.
Visiting Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail is just something you need to do if you haven't yet, and you'll most likely meet some people from Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta here.

Buena Vista Lake
14 miles away
It's not only accessible but it's very accessible. For some bizarre reason the County put in a boat ramp, so get out there and paddle around a bit. Pick up some trash left by some people and storm runoff while your at it....I was born and grew up in the community surrounding this lake from 1955 to 1969. Too bad it is not more easily accessible....Buena Vista Lake is just a tiny pond in a city park. There is no reason for tourists to visit unless you happen to be staying in the neighborhood and want to take a walk....
