Lake Lanier is in the northern part of the state of Georgia and is actually an artificially created lake. The area is home to a lot of flora and fauna, and the water helps keep the area thriving.

Though the lake is important for animal species, it is a very popular recreation destination in both the summer and winter. During the summer months, the lake is famous for boating and canoeing, while in the winter, Lake Lanier is host to the largest animated light show in the southeast.
