• This Georgia lake is reportedly one of the most dangerous in the nation (savannahnow.com) — Lake Lanier, just up the road from Cumming, has been named one of the six most dangerous lakes in the U.S. due to hidden debris, poor visibility, and heavy boat traffic that contribute to higher accident and drowning numbers. Local residents who boat or swim there are urged to be especially cautious, especially during busy holiday periods.
