Lake Lanier is among the 18 most beautiful places in Georgia, according to a report in Southern Living magazine. In fact, five of the places are in our corner of the state.
About Lake Lanier, the author of the report writes:
“Just around 45 minutes from Atlanta, man-made Lake Lanier is as pretty as it is expansive, stretching 38,000 acres. A favorite summer destination for Georgia natives, there are plenty of activities to partake in, from enjoying a boat day or kayaking the lake’s many bays and isles. Sunsets here are the epitome of the beauty of southern lake days.”
Also in northeast Georgia and making the list are the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest, Dahlonega, Helen, and Tallulah Falls State Park.
