Wat je mee moet nemen
Bring water shoes
If you plan on tubing, hiking into water areas or spending time on the lake having water shoes is very helpful. There are many rocks that can be very slick or just hurt to walk on without a pair of water shoes. Walmart sells them usually in Ellijay for under $10.
