Lake Winnepesaukah
1730 Lakeview Dr.
Rossville, GA 30741
In 1924 Carl O. Dixon and his wife, Minette, purchased the lake property with visions of creating a family swimming and picnicking park. They renamed the lake Winnepesaukah after a Native American word meaning “bountiful waters” or “beautiful lake of the highlands.” Opening day on June 1, 1925 attracted 5,000 guests.
Since then Lake Winnie has expanded enormously, including the SOAKya Water Park and many other thrilling attractions. With rides and attractions for the entire family, Lake Winnepesaukah is recognized as one of America’s top ten family amusement parks for all ages.
