I just got an email for directions to "Five Fingers"...which is really a locality and not a formal place name. In case anyone needs it, here is the response...
Coming from the Woodstock side of the lake (Victoria, Harbor Towne, etc.) head toward the other end of the lake. Pass Allatoona Yacht Club on left. The lake makes a hard left hand bend about half a mile later. As you take the bend, you will see the dam in front of you. Look to your right for a fairly large waterway opening and turn in. As you enter, you will see Wilderness Marina over to your right. Go towards Wilderness, and past it (bear far to the right when you pass Wilderness…there is a reef between Wilderness and the middle of the channel). After you pass Wilderness, it will open up into a large area that doesn’t get a lot of activity. That’s where the group will be.
Coming from the Acworth side of the lake (Holiday, Allatoona Marina, etc) head toward the other end of the lake . The lake will make a sharp right hand bend at the dam (Park Marina gas dock will be on your right). Ahead about half a mile is a large opening to your left. Turn in there and look to the right for Wilderness Marina over to your right. Go towards Wilderness, and past it (bear far to the right when you pass Wilderness…there is a reef between Wilderness and the middle of the channel). After you pass Wilderness, it will open up into a large area that doesn’t get a lot of activity. That’s where the group will be.
For the map minded, it will be a little to the East of point 5 on the standard Corps of Engineers map of Allatoona (attached). Take the McCaskey Creek turn, then follow as if you were going up Stamps Creek, but go East instead into anchorage.
For the nautically minded…Latitude 34°10’34.66”N Longitude 84°41’10.84”W
