Manning Mill Park — Attraction in Georgia

A great place for families..... AS LONG AS YOU'RE NOT HANDICAPPED... My brother and I like to find new places to go fishing and have a good time. Saw this park on the web here and looked it over and we liked what we saw as far as fishing goes. We get here this morning and get my mobility scooter unloaded, then we get all of our fishing gear unloaded and put in our wagon to ease around to the far side of the lake, because there is a nice wide walking path all the way around the lake. So we of course think to ourselves SCORE! No signs anywhere saying no wheelchairs allowed. DOUBLE SCORE! The ONLY sign on the path is the one in picture attached below. That's great, no one will be driving vehicles around us while we relax and fish. We get over halfway around the lake and then Miss Ma'am comes rolling up on her golf cart and proceeds to tell me that my mobility scooter is not allowed on the path. The only difference in my scooter and a power wheelchair is the steering. (Wheelchair has a joystick on side, my scooter has a steering column in front) ..... So, handicapped people beware of this park. It was made perfectly clear to me this morning that we're not...

Nice place for the ones that say there's no fish they need to think about it this place is loaded with fish in the last 2 weeks I caught a 4 pounder large mouth and there are some spots crappy and plenty of bream and a also caught a 6 pounder you have got to figure out where they at and what they eating for one if you think I its fished out I can go over there right now in the heat a catch one e right now me and a buddy fished a couple of Friday's ago he caught 12, 3 where spots the rest large mouth I caught 9 largemouth most of them over 2 pounds it took me 4 weeks to figure out what they wanted and was when they wanted it so if your up for a challenge you go and figure the pond out you'll be surprised when you do figure the fish out P.S. it's much better at night also at night they all gather in one spot. In the day light you need to walk and find them they out looking for bream I'm not telling what...

This park is fantastic! My favorite thing about this park is the biodiversity it has to offer. I've seen so many different species of animals here. I've had an Armadillo walk up on me on multiple counts, I also found an eastern box turtle's nesting area (I visit him frequently, sometimes I'll feed him strawberries). I even witnessed a crane eat a one foot bass right in front of me. These are just a few examples of the beautiful moments I've encountered here with the wildlife.

This park has a nice long trail that loops around the lake and even goes through the woods. It's a really peaceful walk, and it's never too busy. The park is usually litter free, and they have clean public bathrooms. The staff here always seem to be hard at work, and it doesn't go unnoticed. Everyone here is usually always friendly and respectful.

Overall, it's a very well maintained park that offers...
