Lake Sidney Lanier

Lake Lanier officially called Lake Sidney Lanier is my favorite lake. It is located in Hall County Georgia. It is a man made lake that was created with the completion of the Buford Dam on the Chattahoochee River in 1956. Today this lake is used for a number of different recreational activities. It is also used as a food and water source for the surrounding areas. The major use for this area is recreation. There is a large country club with a beach and its own amusement park on the lake side.
