John Tanner Park

John Tanner Park, formerly known as John Tanner State Park, is a 138 acre Carroll County park located between Carrollton and Mount Zion. The park is named after John Tanner, a local businessman who operated the park from 1954 to 1971. He operated it as Tanner's Beach. The park itself is well known for its water-friendly recreation. It contains two lakes, one 12 acre and the other 16 acre, and the largest sand beach of any Georgia state park. There is also a walking and nature trail for land-dwellers. It became managed by Carroll County in 2010 and was purchased by Carroll County in 2013.
