Chattahoochee Bend State Park occupies 2,900 acres of varied natural land in western Coweta County, with seven miles of river frontage along the
Chattahoochee River.

Purchased less than a decade ago, the first phase
of Georgia's newest passive recreation facility is being developed with support from Coweta County with $7 million in bonds approved by the state in 2006.

Construction is expected to begin fall 2009. When opened, it will be Georgia's fifth largest state park.

Getting to The Bend ~ UPDATED!

The official main drive to the park entrance, Flat Rock Road off Bud Davis Road, is complete!

HOWEVER... Friends volunteers should enter the park via the north end of Flat Rock Rd, off Payton Road, and continue to the Sign-In Kiosk.

Main Entrance: Ga Hwy 34 to Thomas Powers Road and turn North. Cross Martin Girl / Handy Road and the road changes to Hewlette South Road. Keep left at the next stop sign, turning onto Bud Davis Road. Flat Rock Road is ahead on the right.

North Entrance: Take Railroad St. south from Hwy 16 in Sargent. Follow Railroad St./Welcome-Sargent Road west to Boone Road and turn right.

Follow Boone Road to Payton/Silton Road and turn right. Follow Payton Road west to Flat Rock Road (keep left, pavement ends and gravel begins).

The kiosk is ahead on the left.
