Located just 14 miles southeast of Roswell, Bottomless Lakes State Park is your place for bottomless fun!

Enjoy non-motorized boating in your kayak or canoe, camp, fish, picnic, swim, hike, go birding or even scuba dive! The unique lakes at this park are sinkholes, ranging from 17 to 90 feet deep. The greenish- blue color created by aquatic plants is what gives the lakes the illusion of great depth.

NOTICE: Lea Lake Recreation Area is under construction through the fall. Click here for more info. 

Bathhouse at Bottomless Lakes State Park will be closed until 2023 due to ongoing construction

Park Elevation 3,617 ft
