At Richmond Pond you always meet someone from Atlanta-Sandy Springs-Marietta; dry warm beds await you at Scottish Inns Jonesboro.

Life's too short to enjoy all the cool things next to Richmond Pond. There's so much to do here at Richmond Pond that you need to camp here for a while, Atlanta South RV Resort is a nice site for that, and why not spend some time golfing at a nearby golf course like Lake Spivey Golf | |

Club. Richmond Pond is a rather wet place generally with a good deal of rain; March is when you get the most rain here, and the driest of the months is September. Lakes are such calm locations, why not pop by Frog Pond next to Richmond
Pond, and a trip to Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail is worthwhile.
This lake is so wonderful. If you came to camp Mc Dondugh Koa Kampground is a fine site to do that. At Richmond Pond all through the warmest time

Buena Vista Lake
| 11 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.... |

Simmons Lake
| 18 miles away
My father had a home in the Echo Lake subdivision in the 1960's and the way I remember what happened to Simmons Lake was that that after Lakeside High School was built the earthen dam that held back Simmons Lake broke and that was pretty much the end of the lake. It wasn't repaired. The small lake next to Briarcliff Road was a separate lake that was fed from Simmons lake and in turn fed Echo Lake. This small lake appears from an aerial photograph to have nearly silted in. The culvert under Briarcliff Road from the small lake to Echo Lake was a favorite haunt for chasing snakes and turtles. I remember Echo Lake being dredged in the 1960's. Back then there was little Echo Lake at the other end of Echo Lake and it no longer exists. Little Echo Lake had a concrete dam that failed a couple of times and I suppose was given up on. The homes in Echo Lake subdivision sold in the 20-25K range. This area was a perfect place for my brother and me to spend summers. Dad told me years later that he wouldn't see us until dinner time in the summer because we spent all day doing things around these la... |
