Property
Located
in the northwest portion of Cobb County, 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 John
Purcell at (770) 528-8825.
