Parksville Lake
When me and my three brothers were growing up we were poor, so my dad and my stepmother Eunice Howard would take us from cleveland tn to parksville lake every evening after they would get off from their jobs to a place called The Rock, where we woul swim till sundown. I am now 52 ,and I have ever since cherished those moments....

Benton Falls Trail
Trail starts below the dam, nice walk or bike to top of falls then a little steep or rough to bottom, plus side trails along the way....Great short hike, potentially dangerous at top of falls - no fence or warning signs. Rocks are wet and slimy. Keep going past the top, especially if you have children with you....Trail starts below the dam, nice walk or bike to top of falls.

Lake Conasauga Campground
15 miles away
...onasauga for the last few years I am very upset about the way people are treating the facilities offered there. As this area grows in popularity, and more and more people use it, I am saddened by the way this beautiful lake and mountian is being abused and trashed. The catch phrase ''Leave only your footprints'' applies to all US National Forests for a reason. One can only assume that you use this camping area for it's beauty and freshness, so why then do so many people leave it in such a mess? To have to pick up over 50 bags of trash, often left scattered about after a non-holiday weekend, is unreasonable. I don't mean to rant or nag, but, it isn't that hard to put a grocery bag in you pocket when fishing along the lake trail and walk out with the trash you create. The hosts in most camp grounds are volunteers and are unpaid. They pay for all of their own expenses to be there in order to keep the grounds and restrooms clean and stocked. So, PLEASE, read and obey the rules posted. Few places are as beautiful as our National Parks, please lets all make that small effort to keep them t...

Great Folks and a great 2hr trip...The Coosawattee General Store is now offering kayaks/tubes for the stretch that runs through Coosawattee River Resort....
