     Have a tremendous hiking adventure along the Chattooga Trail, and do stop at Johns Pond, it's a wonderful lake. This lake is so wonderful. On a fine day at Freeman Pond you can take a hike along the Burrells Ford Trail; camping at Sunset Campground is always a brilliant experience. So much cool stuff to do at Freeman Pond, so little time. Johns Pond is a nearby lake that you could explore; whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then, we  
   recommend Cedar Creek. Through the summertime at Freeman Pond highs are frequently in the 80's. Through the dark hours of summer temperatures fall down into the 60's. The winter comes with highs in the 40's; after the sun is down throughout the winter temperatures at Freeman Pond drop into the 20's.
After a long day outdoors Jameson Inn Seneca is a good site to spend a night or two; while you're here you can take a hike along the Winding Stairs Trail.

Stonecypher Lake
14 miles away
...> This lake is located on the farm lands of Palmer Simpson Stonecypher and was constructed in the mid 1950's.
The shorelines are constant except in times of heavy rainfall and original life of lake was projected to exceed 100 years. Silt accumulation after 20 years was approximately .5 inche. Normal elevation is apporximately 800'. Feeder streams maintain lake levels even during extended periods of insufficient rainfall and at the same time provide spill into the exiting stream bed.
The lake has been pulled down during periods of heavy construction of highways across the feeder streams to allow silt to return to the streams and pass thru thedrain gates.
Buena Vista Dr crosses the lake in two places; one being the main dam and again on the Coe Branch inlet. Original construction of dams accommodated these crossings.
Over the years sport fishing has been excellent with large mouth Bass, Crappie, Brem, Pike And Catfish, however fishing is limited due to private ownership of property including the lake basin.
The shorelines and surounding hills are populated with...

Winding Stairs Trail
16 miles away
Winding Stairs in in Salem, SC. I have lived here my whole life and have been to the top many times. You can drive all the way up just be careful due to the fact that there are no gaurd rails....I was told the Winding Stairs trail was at Devil's Fork State Park. Is this correct?...From Walhalla, take 28 north/east and bear right on 107. You will pass oconee State Park, and then park at Cherry Hill Campground. The trail is behind Cherry Hill campground....Unless I'm missing something I have no idea how to get to this trail without a gps. I live in GA and would like to visit....
