The whole family will enjoy a day of fun in the sun when you visit Murphy Lake. Swimming, boating fishing, water skiing and canoeing are just a few of the water sports and recreation activities that you can enjoy when you visit this reservoir located in nearby Monticello in Jasper County.

It doesn't matter if you want to teach the kids about the finer points of fishing, how to swim or if you just want to get them out of the house for awhile. What does matter is that when you take the whole family to the Tobesofkee Recreation Area, there will be plenty of fun waiting for them. Fishing for largemouth and striped bass is reason enough to get excited about your visit, but so are the inviting shoreline areas, the swimming and water sports that are available, as well as the large picnic areas that double as comfortable places to relax and enjoy the scenery.

New York City has Central Park. Not to be outdone, Macon has Central City Park. This lush, expansive swath of greenery is a true haven for city-dwelling nature lovers. While the park is a popular lunch destination for the many nearby cubicle-bound office workers, it also offers urbanites a great place to enjoy some quality time doing fun outdoor activities. Central City Park features various ball fields, basketball courts and big expansive areas to just play and throw the frisbee around. Designated picnic areas, a good variety of playground equipment for the kids, and a winding walking path only add to the park's appeal.
