Lake Tobesofkee
Lake Tobesofkee is a small 1,800-acre reservoir located on Tobesofkee Creek in Bibb County just outside of Macon. When the weather warms, Tobesofkee is a busy little lake, and fishing can be frustrating on weekends. Night fishing for bass is very good in the summer months. The lake is owned and operated by the city of Macon. Located three miles from I-475, the Lake Tobesofkee Recreation Area has three public parks named Claystone, Sandy Beach and Arrowhead. Besides facilities for fishing, camping, boating and tennis, the parks have three white sand beaches for swimming or picnicking. Arrowhead Park includes mountain bike trails.
