     Tennessee has many beautiful lakes and Lays Lake is one of them. This lake is so wonderful. Lays Lake is right by the Racoon Loop, needless to say you could also take a look at Newport Lake while you're here; it's not far at all. High temperatures at Lays Lake during the summer months are in the 80's while overnight lows are ordinarily in the 60's. High temperatures all through the wintertime are normally in the 40's, and overnight lows at Lays Lake during  
   the wintertime frequently fall into the 20's. Yeah, come up here to the Cumberland Plateau Mountains for a brilliant time. Lays Lake is magnificent enough to spend more than a day at, Bandy Creek Campground is a magnificent local campground, and a lake nearby is Cooper Pond.
Whohoo, so much exciting stuff in one place! Lays Lake is so good! Hiking along the Hidden Passage Trail is tremendous fun; Big South Fork National River & Recreation Area is a very
 
               tremendous location to stop at. Be careful coming to the Cumberland Plateau Mountains, you might not ever want to return back home again. Playing golf is lots of fun at Oneida Golf & Country Club; a quick tour to Ails Branch is definitely a perfect idea. Near Lays Lake you locate Shepherd Camp Hollow which is a glorious location to pop by.
The Cumberland Plateau Mountains scenery is always beautiful. Take a hike on the Deer Loop, and get yourself into a kayak and hit Cumberland River - Big South Fork. Lays Dam is an out of the ordinary thing to check out, and Best Western South Fork Inn is a brilliant spot to get some rest.
This lake is so wonderful. Camping at Charit Creek Campground is always a nice experience, and get dripping wet paddling on Pine Creek. The high level of rainfall makes Lays Lake a rather wet place; of all the months in a year March is the one with the most rain, and October on the other hand is the driest.

Hidden Passage Trail
14 miles away
Hidden passage trail has a little of something for everyone's liking. This trail with its waterfalls, caves, hemlock forests, rock formations and the unobstructed views of adjacent mountains that seem as if you could reach out and touch them make this a must see and at the top of my list. The trail is moderate/difficult depending on your pace. We started this 10 mile trail at 3:30 pm and finished it at 7:30pm with frequent 10 minute stops along the way but would not recommend this to someone not looking for a workout. This trail can be quite dangerous as you walk along cliff edges less then a foot from the trail. I would NOT recommend taking children on this trail. We hiked this trail in august on a cool day cloudy low 80's. ...
