Lake Lanier

Beautiful scenery, for sure. The lake is huge so much bigger than anyone would think without going out and exploring by boat. It doesn't matter if you want a romantic escape, or flying through the water getting soaked, or maybe getting off to yourself for some laid back fishing whatever you want Lake Lanier has you covered. Also, for picture lovers, it's paradise. The only negative thing I have seen the last couple of weeks is that the gar is really bad. I don't know if they are aggressive they have way to many really sharp teeth for me to knowingly give them the chance to see.

Beautiful lake (although it falls under one of the dirties in America). The scenery is always beautiful. Great spots to fish and hike.

Special place for metro Atlantans. Many activities can be done here.

This was my first time visiting Lake Lanier. I went there to kayak. It cost me 10 dollars to park for the day. I put in at Mary Alice Beach. I was pleased and surprised by the international mix of people around the lake. The area I explored was dotted with little beaches and hiking trails. Bring repellent if you plan to hike. The water was choppy from the wind and boat wakes, which made it fun. The boaters were all courteous. I recommend taking pics and paying attention to your starting point, because this is a big lake with lots of similar inlets and islands. I stopped short of 5 stars due to some visitors leaving Trash in otherwise nice areas.

Amazing places! And the sunset is beautiful! Sadly, there is a little bit of trash everywhere ~ A place worth visiting! But please bring your trash away with you! Let's preserve this place!

Very beautiful. There’s deer and some trails. The amount of trash everywhere made me sad though. And it’s $20 to get in, even if you’re just staying for an hour. It’s worth seeing at least once though, especially when it’s misty and the cold is keeping people away. It’s very peaceful when it’s quiet.

Beautiful lake! First time coming here. We were met at the gate by a very helpful attendant named Dennis that provided us with a map and gave us a thorough explanation of all the highlights of the lake! We were able to find our way around and enjoyed all the sights

Update: Was here back in 2020 for the first time with my family. Such a nice, scenic place to be. The water was fresh and blue. Great spot! Dreading to come back again some day.
