     After a long day outdoors Super 8 Motel Carrollton GA is a splendid place to spend a night or two, and you'll locate a beautiful lake called Patrick North Lake. Through the warm months at Richards Lake highs are usually in the 80's with nighttime lows in the 60's. Highs during the winter are frequently in the 50's while Richards Lake overnight low temperatures throughout the winter are in the 20's. This lake is so wonderful. Whitewater paddling is not for everybody  
   but if it's for you then we recommend Snake River, and Oak MTN Golf Club is a brilliant golf course close by.
If you come at the right time of year, Whooping Creek offers some great whitewater. You'll need more than a day to discover everything Richards Lake has to offer, you can camp at John Tanner State Park. So much cool stuff near Richards Lake, absolutely extraordinary. While you're here at Richards Lake, you could also stop by pretty Moore Lake, and Richards
 
               Lake Dam is a stunning spot, unquestionably worth visiting. A magnificent nearby hotel is Quality Inn & Suites. There's so much to do here at Richards Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Papillon Resort and RV Campground is a wonderful place for that.
All the water falling down from the sky makes Richards Lake a wet spot; most of the rain falls throughout March while October is the month with the least amount of precipitation.

Whooping Creek
...t is only ankle deep 90% of the way. I have lived on this creek my entire life and have barely been able to find a spotdeep enough to swim in most years. It is however a great place to hike and camp. I dont know much about the adjacent property owners but in 29 years have never been bothered hiking the section between Clem-Lowell road and Hwy 5 (the section you are referring to).The section on the opposite side of hwy 5 is owned by Inland Paper and posted. There are a few property owners on shilo church road that will allow you passage to the water. I have floated a canoe to the river on this section after months of rain, but in general it is also too shallow. There are some deep holes in this section of the creek that offer great bream and bass fishing. The fishing is best closer to the river and it is not uncommon to catch 7# striped bass swimming up from the river looking for food. A gob of nightcawlers or a small rooster tail work excellent for all species. It is a beautiful stream and will not dissappoint for quiet and solitude, but not worth the hassle for kayaking.
