You'll find amazing color just about anywhere you go but there are a few special spots that offer something unique. Be sure and scroll down to find out all High Rock Lake has to offer.
There is something magical about an evening boat ride during a full moonrise. The experience is even better in the fall because there is less boat traffic and the moon reflects the perfect light to accentuate the radiant colors of the trees surrounding the lake. If you haven't done this you should.
