Georges Lake Area - Etoniah State Forest

These photos of Georges Lake are part of the Georges Lake area of Etoniah State Forest. A picture is worth a thousand words but nothing beats being there. Getting there can be a bit bumpy going down Tinsley Road (see map where Etoniah meets the Lake), but the trail is nice and just a few minutes walk to Georges Lake.

A Place Called George's Lake

The problem with searching the web for information on George's Lake or even Florahome, Florida is the same problem many people today see with all of our advanced technology - real world disconnectedness. If you just want the basic facts, the internet's a great place to get them, but in the case of Georges Lake, a dry list of facts seems a poor representation of a place so rich with memories. For some, those memories go back a long way filled with the sound of laughing kids, the smell of barbeque, or fishing 101 as taught by Grandad. Maybe some may even recall a family by the name of George swimming in the lake,... hmmmm? And oh yeah, by the way - this is George's Lake we're talking about, not Lake George - that's another Lake here in Florida and a whole nuther story. Like Florahome, George's Lake holds more memories than the lake holds fish and like these old photos,...

even though the memories may have faded a little, they are, for we who have them, a place called George's Lake.
