The beauty of Hughes Lake is reason enough to stop by. Lots of rain falls at Hughes Lake; the month of March is the wettest with most of the rain, and the driest month is October. After a long day outdoors Cleveland-Days Inn is a pleasant spot to spend a night or two; if you came to camp Chattanooga North KOA is a pleasant site to do that. If only every location had this much outdoors exciting stuff, what a great globe it would be. Deverell Spring is a stunning

| | location to check out while you're at Hughes Lake, as expected you could also stop by Jersey Meadow Lake if you're here; it's not far at all.
Camping at Chilhowee Rec Area - Cherokee National Forest is always a splendid experience; there is a tremendous hiking trail nearby called the Conasauga River Trail. This lake is so wonderful. Get yourself into a kayak and hit Mill Creek, and going for a hike on the Gryder Camp Trail is always a tremendous adventure. Cleveland | |

Knights Inn is a perfect place to get some rest, and a lake nearby is Worthy Lake.
This lake is so wonderful. For the period of the warm days of summer at Hughes Lake highs are regularly in the 80's, and the overnight is a tad
colder of course, ordinarily in the 60's. The wintertime brings highs down to the 40's with temperatures at Hughes Lake dipping down into the 20's through winter nights. Get dripping wet paddling on Conasauga River, and Hughes Lake is not far at all from Dalton.

Lake Conasauga Campground
 | 15 miles away
...Conasauga for the last few years I am very upset about the way people are treating the facilities offered there. As this area grows in popularity, and more and more people use it, I am saddened by the way this beautiful lake and mountian is being abused and trashed. The catch phrase ''Leave only your footprints'' applies to all US National Forests for a reason. One can only assume that you use this camping area for it's beauty and freshness, so why then do so many people leave it in such a mess? To have to pick up over 50 bags of trash, often left scattered about after a non-holiday weekend, is unreasonable. I don't mean to rant or nag, but, it isn't that hard to put a grocery bag in you pocket when fishing along the lake trail and walk out with the trash you create. The hosts in most camp grounds are volunteers and are unpaid. They pay for all of their own expenses to be there in order to keep the grounds and restrooms clean and stocked. So, PLEASE, read and obey the rules posted. Few places are as beautiful as our National Parks, please lets all make that small effort to keep them ... |
