There is something about springtime that makes me want to travel–even if it’s just to a neighboring town or local watering hole, I just want to get outside and enjoy the sunshine and warm weather. For those of you who are looking to scratch your spring travel itch, there may be a nearby solution with beautiful rewards. While many people may be flocking to the beach this spring, this one particular lake in Georgia will be just as enjoyable for your next weekend getaway.

Lake Lanier is one of the best springtime destinations in the state of Georgia.
