I am on the south end of the lake (6mile Creek or Young Deer Creek), but lately we are just going to Sunset Cove to hang out with friends and let our kids play on the beach or in the waterpark. I am pretty flexible to meet anywhere on the lake that is convenient to the majority of folks that are interested.

You guy's know where the best water is so ya'll make the call and I'll be there. Every weekend is a 3 day weekend for me so I'm good. If we're gonna make this a 3 day'er then I have a truck (if I get her fixed) or a tent to sleep in or maybe hit the Buffalo's up for Hollywoods room if there is a vacancy.

We went exploring last week to Little River and yesterday to 6 Mile and Young Deer. Both are less than 1/2 hour from me. Little had smooth water all day on Sunday. There is a ton of camping on Lanier. I have room at my house also. We are excited to meet up with some CCF menbers that go to Lanier.

Sorry we missed you; we were watching the women's world cup and didn't feel like doing much after that loss. Normally, we'd have been out all day.
There's a gas station very close to the ramp here...I don't want to know what Holiday is getting for 93. |

Hi Guys,
I'm on Lanier most weekends and would love to join up for this. I've been a lurker around CCFan for the most part (until something breaks and I need advice), but would enjoy putting some faces to names. -Bud |

I am in for it. if we are going to do a multi day let me know so the wife can get off work. If any body doesn't want to trailer back and forth I have plenty of parking room 1/10 of a mile from Burton mill ramp.

I am good for the afternoonevening of the 29th and all day on the 30th - I propose we get the date finalized and then decide on a location since most of us trailer to/from the lake anyway

I will not be able to make it on the weekend of the 29th. I hope you guys and gals have fun! Take lots of pictures and post them please.
I will however be on the Lanier tomorrow, if anybody is going to be in the six mile/little mill area. I will be on the lookout for other CCFan members and any other Correct Craft owners. Matt |

Seems like a few can't make this w/e, and a few others think it's short notice.
Tim is looking into camping options because the timing isn't good for us to have everyone over. The end of August or the beginning of September would be better for that. |

Looking at the campgrounds via online and telephone looks like if we want to make a weekend out of this we're gonna have to camp out at Van Pugh camground. They have primitive camping and RV slots left with a few close to the water. It's pretty close to Lake Lanier islands but which means the Buffalo's will have to trail blaze. Close to Mike & Gails though. Ya'll pipe up with the suggestions. What ya'll wanna do?
Here's a link to what's available at the campground at the time of posting...Open sites are in blue. Van Pugh Campground |

Van Pugh is about 2 miles further down Gaines Ferry rd. We are at Burton Mill. From there its about 1/2 hour by car to little River where the Buffalo roams. We can accommodate a few at my house more if you dont mind ruffing it.

I am open for what ever the group wants. We checked out your end on a Sunday and it was good water all day. Is that the norm? Its 1/2 hour drive or it will take 1 plus hours and a lot more gas by boat. My wife took the weekend off 29-30-31 so lets get something going. Sweet if you can make it that would be great.

Hey guys been out of town at North Myrtle Beach this past week on vacation. Been off the site this week. Well....I did take a brief look using my Blackberry!
Robin and I would be able to make it on the 29th or 30th. Not sure we would be spending the night, but would like to hook up with everyone for sure. Six Mile, Charleston Park launch ramps on the southwest/Cumming side are usually pretty busy, although I have gotten a spot every time we have gone to Charleston Park so far this season. The water is fair in the mornings and late evening. During the day we usually cruise over to Sunset Cove and hang out for a while. Pretty sure Greg's area up in Little River would be better water conditions for skiing. Really, we are flexible and will meet wherever we need to. |

Jim is correct Young Deer and Charleston (6 mile creek) are for very early morning and late evening only. I don't think anyone would get any fun out of trying to ski these areas because of the tremendously small window on the weekendds. We plan on heading north up the lake today to just let the kids ski and then come home so I will let everyone know what Sardis area looks like just north of Gainesville marina.
Hanging out is good anywhere on the lake though. |

Well then lets quit fartin round and pull the trigger. Why don't we just plan on hanging out "On the HoocH" up where the Buffalo's roam. Boat launch right down the street from them plus Greg already told me that if he were called out of town that we were more than welcome to use their dock for grnd central. I'm bringing the truck or tent to sleep in so just need to place to park either one be in Mike's place or Greg's. If the Buffalo's are at home I can bring my smoker again and we can do smoked chicken for dinner on Sat (unless someone wants to step up and buy a couple of racks of ribs). All ya gotta do is plug it in and come back 5-6 hrs later and Hmmmmmmm....mmmmmmm! Chips, slaw are easily bought and can feed the small gathering of CCFans.
True we can just raft up and with fans you can just tie em' up and go in whomevers boat doing what ever. We Atlanta guy's have been talking bout doing this all summer let's just freaking do it. I'll be there unless the monsoons come! |

Be glad to bring some ribs,chicken,slaw and whatever. Sounds great to me. Ready for some boat time. Especially with fellow CCfans. |

Saturday it is. Little River Park is the ramp. It's just off 129N/Cleveland Hwy; follow the pretty brown signs.
Looks like you guys have dinner already covered? We could do coffee, sweet rolls, and a picinic basket to hold us over...suit yall? 6:30am? Traffic should be light, so we don't have to start that early, but I'll have the coffee ready by then. |
