Looking for a lakehouse with decent riding nearby. Has to
be within about 3-4 hours of Birminham AL. Pretty much
means NW Georgia or NE Alabama (or even parts of Eastern
TN or Western NC).

Can anybody name a good lake to look around?

I ask here, because one of the key criteria is (duh)
access to good riding. And I know I can always count on
this group to provide thoughtful, polite suggestions.

Cheers,

I'd say go a coupla more hours into western N.C, and you'd
find a plethora of sites. (alot of places on Fontana!) But
there are a fair share in NW Georgia too.

I know I know. The problem is that if I push for a place
more than 3-4 hours my wife will (rightly) ask, "why not
just get a beach house"

The goal is to have a place that's pretty easy to get
everybody up to Friday nights and home at a reasonable hour
on Sunday (or even Monday morning before work).

You're a Georgia guy, right? Is there anything up in the
Rome area?

I dunno about any lake front rentals up there. (Not even
sure if there is a sizable lake in the area. There are the
Coosa & Etowah rivers though. ) But I do know there are
MILES and MILES of trails in and around Berry College.
