By water, the access channel is a little difficult to find.� A winding, unmarked waterway from the Chattahoochee River leads you to a surprise end at Treasure Lake .� Once inside, you go fairly straight ahead.� As you near the shore, you will see the channel marked which lead you to a gradual cement landing with a boat dock.
����������� If you come by vehicle, you will find that the parking lot is maneuverable and the ramp is user friendly.� Under the pines are picnic tables and stoves.� There is also a clean comfort station.� The beauty of this park has remained pristine.� It is worth the find.
