Pine Lake Beach and Park – Fun in the Sun (Responsibly)

Living in a beautiful lake community with great natural resources, recreational activities, and wildlife offers a unique, rural lifestyle which is rare in a metropolis like Atlanta and presents its own challenges.  The City Council has approved these rules to ensure a safe and fun time during our special time of year with swimming, fishing, and many entertainment and recreational activities. See you at Lake.

2010 Pine Lake Park and Beach Rules

  1. Swimming is permitted until sunset. The Park, which includes the Western Wetlands, Eastern Green Space, and all trails surrounding the lake, close at sunset.  Swimming is allowed only from Memorial Day weekend through October 3, 2010 (OctoberLake Fest).
  2. Current Park cards are required for use of our park and lake and must be presented upon request. Park cards are available at City Hall (Free to homeowners).
  3. Swimming is always at your own risk.
  4. Children 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult and swim within the roped area.
  5. Adults may swim outside of the roped area but within the berm by signing a waiver form available at City Hall or at the beach with the Beach Manager.
  6. Fishing requires a park card and no fishing is allowed in the swimming area (Inner Berm).
  7. Please Clean Up After Your Pets. To promote health and lessen pollution in our lake, Pine Lake is a Pooper Scooper community requiring us to pick up our pet’s waste and dispose of it properly.  For your convenience we have provided plastic bags in containers on our garbage can houses. If you have extra plastic shopping bags, you are welcome to restock these containers with your own bags.  Thanks in advance for your help!
  8. Save the geese, ducks, and other birds by not feeding them. This is not healthy to their digestive system, interrupts their migration pattern, and pollutes our lake.
  9. No dogs or pets are allowed off-leash, in the lake, or on the beach at any time.
  10. No glass containers allowed on the beach or in the park.
  11. Alcoholic beverage consumption and public drunkenness are not allowed at the park or beach and violators are subject to arrest and prosecution.  Alcoholic beverages are only allowed during special and permitted events.
  12. Smoking is prohibited on the beach. No fires on the beach without a permit.
  13. Honor the noise ordinances and litter laws and keep our park and lake clean.

Enjoy our Pine Lake nature and environment responsibly and respectfully.

Thank you!
