Property
Located
in the northwest portion of Cobb County (see
map), this property consists of 1450 acres leased from
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Large open fields give way
to forest as the property connects to Lake Allatoona . Two
creeks (Little Allatoona & Big Allatoona) merge as you
near the lake. The property is home to a vast array of wildlife
as ground nesting birds, birds of prey, deer, fox, bobcat
and other mammals as well as reptiles reside on site. The
land is managed to accommodate all species of wildlife with
archery hunting
for deer allowed during season.
Several
miles of trails are planned for construction with walking,
jogging and mountain biking the focus. A gravel parking area
with a restroom/storage facility is also planned. The
park is open for public use except during hunting season.
For information regarding this park, contact Rusty
Simpson at (770) 528-8840.
