What's Going On

In the Spotlight

Summer brings an abundance of activities for visitors and residents of the area. You can enjoy the peacefulness of Lake Oconee by renting a canoe or kayak. For something a little more adventuresome, jet skis, waterskiing and wakeboarding add great excitement. Lake Oconee also offers wonderful family activities such as horseback riding, guided boat tours and more. Experience the thrill of angling for that trophy bass you’ve always wanted. Lake Oconee has excellent fishing guides available to help you make that dream a reality. When its time for a break from the lake this summer, visit historic downtown Greensboro for small town charm and a unique selection of shopping, dining and events.
