Conveniently located to the metro Atlanta area, Allatoona Lake provides the perfect weekend getaway to spend time and relax on the lake.
Allatoona Lake is approximately 11 miles long and about 12,000 acres with more than 270 miles of shoreline. The extensive shoreline provides excellent opportunities for shoreline fishing or jetties. Around the lake you will find conveniently located boat ramps, day use areas and campgrounds.
