     Lakes? Sure, Timberlake Pond is in the neighborhood, and dry warm beds await you at Holiday Inn CHARLOTTESVILLE-MONTICELLO. Not far from Olympic Lake, you'll come across Reynovia Lake which is a wonderful lake, and the sight of Carters Mountain is delightful. This lake is so wonderful. If you need a place to stay Sleep Inn & Suites Monticello is a delightful choice; there are some great whitewater spots on Rivanna River. Charlottesville Koa Kampground is a nice  
   campground nearby; you can stay the night at James River Runners.
Man, is there a heap of exciting stuff to do right next door to Olympic Lake. While you're here at Olympic Lake you will meet lots of people from nearby Charlottesville, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Hardware River - North Fork. Olympic Lake gets a large amount of water; July is the month that gets the most rain; the driest month is January. All
 
               through the warmest time of the year, highs frequently are in the 80's at Olympic Lake. Through the dark hours of summer temperatures drop down into the 60's. High temperatures during the winter are normally in the 40's; overnight lows in the 20's for Olympic Lake.
This lake is so wonderful. For you golfers we recommend close by Birdwood Golf Course, and you don’t have to go far from Olympic Lake to distinguish the water at Olympic Dam.

Rivanna River
Last Saturday July 11th,2009 My son and his buddy, both 11 year old decided to canoe the rivanna river . We put the canoe at Shadwell near the bridge and came out at the cross road in Fluvanna county between 53 and 15. The trip took us 7 hours, 4 hours from Shadwell to Crafton and 3 hours from Crafton to Fluvanna court house. I though this could be a good information for the new comer in this area . I couldn't find any information about the time that this trip will take, well I hope this data will help other fellow persons.

PS: It was wonderful experience for everybody...

Charlottesville Reservoir
For years I have been fishing the reservoir, the boat ramp is terrible at the twin bridges, and not enough parking at the dam. Several other fisherman including myself would be more than happy to fix the ramp at the bridges free of charge to the city or county if permission is granted. There is much erosion near the edge of the ramp. Backing your boat in the water is dangerous, trying not to go near the eroded bank. Please call me with a response . THANKS.
