Locate It: Greensboro

Greensboro is halfway between Atlanta and Augusta and is home to beautiful 19,000-acre Lake Oconee. The lake is the second largest in Georgia and offers a plethora of water activities, including wakeboarding, jet skiing, canoeing, kayaking, water biking, paddle boarding and swimming.

In addition to fishing on your own, Lake Oconee offers guided fishing tours. The guides know the lake like the back of their hand and will have you catching stripers, hybrids and crappies in no time.

Overnight accommodations include relaxed luxury at The Ritz-Carlton Reynolds, Lake Oconee, camping under the stars at one of three campgrounds, or renting a home inside Reynolds Lake Oconee, perfect for families and multi-generational vacationers. The weather is nice year-round, so the lake is always open!
