     Do take a look at Lake Sherwood in the neighborhood of Watoga Lake, it's a scenic lake; if you need a site to stay Holiday Inn Express COVINGTON is a brilliant choice. This lake is so wonderful. If you like skiing, you're in luck; Snowshoe is in close proximity to Watoga Lake, and whitewater paddling is not for everybody but if it's for you then, we recommend Greenbrier River. This lake is so wonderful. Watoga Lake is great enough to spend more than a day at,

Great spot to settle into for a while. My little family camps there every year in june. Alot to do near the camp site. The best site is right on the lake, walk 15 feet to fish your heart out. Lots to do with the children.... Beautyful CLEAN swimming area and play ground just up the main road and showers available to clean them up at the end of the day. The best part about this site you can get the ''away from it all'' and still have access to a store, pay phone, and verry limited cell phone? service... enjoy!!? Mommy of 2 little 1s...
