    Why not stop by Hampton Lake if you're passing through these parts. Why not take a refreshing hike along the Whiteside Mountain National Recreation Trail, and get yourself into a kayak and hit Chattooga River. Hampton Lake is not the only site nearby, Lupton Lake is a nearby lake, and if you come at the right time of year, Whitewater River offers some pleasant whitewater. Not enough hours in a day to enjoy this place. Sapphire Valley Resort is a good site  
   to get some rest, and Fairfield Sapphire Valley Sapphire Mountain Golf Club is a great golf course nearby.
