Greene County, GeOrGiA Located just east of Atlanta, Georgia you will find Greene County. This charming county is home to beautiful Lake Oconee and is truly a place for everyone. Lake Oconee is the second largest lake in Georgia, so there is no end to the water adven- tures you can have. Spend the day jet-skiing, wakeboarding, paddle boarding or jumping off the famous “jumping rock.” If fish- ing is more your speed, Lake Oconee boasts more fish per acre than any other lake in Geor- gia, which makes it the perfect spot for a guided fishing trip with Reel Time Guide Service. They will personally lead you to stripers, crappie, and bass with their experienced guides. For 124 | Fall 2017 | Adventure Outdoors adventures not on the water, we recommend quail hunting at the picturesque Fishing Creek Farms. They are committed to giving you and your group a per- sonalized quail hunt experience. For the true adrenaline junkies, rent an ATV, dirt bike, or Side-by-Side at Durhamtown Off Road Resort. They are the largest off road park in the US with 6,000 acres of trails and dirt tracks. And we can’t forget about golf! Put on your golf shoes and work on your short game at one of Lake Oconee’s six nationally recognized courses. When it comes time to call it a day, enjoy the night with family and friends gathered around a crackling fire while enjoying nature at one of Greensboro’s campgrounds. Whether you’re more of a traditional tent camper or prefer to camp via RV, the three campgrounds offer both. If you are looking for a more luxurious option, we recommend staying at The Ritz-Carlton Rey- nolds, Lake Oconee. All of this and more is waiting for you in one loca- tion – Greene County. This season, we invite you to escape reality, even if only for a weekend, and enjoy the endless possibilities Lake Oconee has to offer.
