Qhispark surrounds a 375-acre
lake that has become a major boating and waterskiing attraction in south Georgia. Fishing for bass, crappie, catfish and bream is excellent. The Coastal Plains Nature Trail and Gopher Tortoise Nature Trail wind through a cypress swamp, pitcher plant bog, sandhill area and other habitats representative of southern Georgia. Watchful visitors may see waterfowl, the threatened gopher tortoise and indigo snake, and other creatures. During summer, a butterfly and hummingbird garden is in full bloom. The park is less than six miles from I-75, making it a relaxing side trip for Florida-bound travelers.
