We did the hiking trails. Just WOW!!!!! It's absolutely beautiful with the stream and ferns. The trail was a challenge too. My girls and myself love a challenge 🤩🤩. We only saw a few other hikers and of course they were friendly. Once we were done we dipped our feet in the River to cool off. This is a perfect area for the kids to play, picnic too.

First time visitor and will definitely go back. Beautiful view and family atmosphere. Park is clean. I brought my 8 year old son and our dog(must be leashed). Beautiful clean water.

Excellent finds that day and a lo... First time visitor and will definitely go back. Beautiful view and family atmosphere. Park is clean. I brought my 8 year old son and our dog(must be leashed).

Perfect day!

Nice park along the banks of the Etowah River and below the Allatoona Dam. This side costs $5 to enter as it is a pay and park area. The area on the opposite side is free and nice too but doesn't have the same water and dam views. This side has frisbee golf, picnic shelter, restrooms, playground, and several picnic table overlooking the water. See and hear the water churning over the rocks. C...

Beautiful scenery and spot for pictures. Only complaint was the grass looked rather unkempt which you'd think for $5 per car (a relatively new fee) it would be kept up better. Could have been due to recent rainy water. You must park and walk to the water (a few steps away) for the full effect. A ride by won't do it.

What a great find! Maps routed us here after searching day use parks. This is a great area for fishing, outside activities with friends or family, lounging near (or playing in) the river, trails, and multiple targets for disc golf. It wasn't overcrowded, even on the weekend, and had room to spread out and enjoy some nature. We'll be back again!

Beautiful location.we had 25 people, but it could easily handle a bunch more. Huge BBQ pit on site. It is older, but worked fine.
