Outdoorsmen and families alike will want to go straight to the Dog River Recreational Complex. This park features a 256-acre lake for boating and fishing, as well as shaded pavilions with grills—perfect for family picnics. Head over to the Foxhall Sporting Club, which features 16 lakes spread over 1,100 acres. Fun at the Foxhall Sporting Club is not limited to fishing. The club also sports archery ranges, a clay course and a top-class equestrian facility, all along the banks of the beautiful Chattahoochee River.
A walk through Historic Downtown Douglasville is the perfect way to unwind after a long day in the sunshine. Shops, art galleries and restaurants line the downtown, which is featured on the National Register of Historic Places. If you are feeling competitive, then a round of golf at the West Pines Golf Club, which has been called the best golfing in the Atlanta metro area, is just the ticket. The course features four sets of tees and a putting green, and the hilly, wooded course makes for a particularly scenic day on the links.
Take the kids to Six Flags Over Georgia, only a few minutes' drive from downtown Douglasville. Tickets for this popular theme park can be purchased at several locations within the city. Six Flags' many water slides and rides are a perfect way to cool down in the hot Georgia summers. And do not forget to take advantage of Douglasville's bounty of sunshine by visiting Sweetwater Creek State Park for a day of hiking along the park's beautiful rapids.
