McKinney Campground, Ackworth, Georgia - Alatoona Lake

On Sunday we moved from Huntsville, Alabama to McKinney Campground in Ackworth, Georgia, about 45 miles northwest of Atlanta.  McKinney Campground is an Army Corps Of Engineers campground located on Altoona Lake. Altoona Lake was formed in 1949 by the Corps Of Engineers damming the Etowah River for the purposes of flood control and reservoir creation.  The lake is about 20 miles long and has 270 miles of shoreline.


Our Route

We have a site on a little peninsula so we have water on three sides.  Most of the sites overlook the lake and have a patio area
