Reviews of Hiwassee River Recreation Area
"Water is excellent, great rock hunting, peaceful, beautiful scenery."
"Beautiful scenery. Grew up on that river. It has changed over the years. Good or bad? The road around to the powerhouse is in better shape being hard topped as to have been being gravel. Some modifications along the way were changed for the worse, in my opinion. The sign that claims "catch and release"? The months iij included are not educational enough. They so not give the proper way a fisherman to catch and release. By this I mean to say... a trout can not be handed after being caught. If it is handled it will die. So this rule of catch and release without education is the wrong way. I tried to have another state worker to call the game warden to bring this fo his/her attention. But after a long wait and no game warden coming I gave up. The "turbin' schedule should be posted and by call phone access. That way a "wading" trout fisherman can be better prepared for the rising water. If a fisherman is down near Taylor's Island when the water gets there be careful. I have personally seen a wave coming down the river. From one side to the other. The only advise I may give is to literally run towards the bank. But for those who simply wish to sight see... take a walking stick. There are snakes and more than anytime in my life it seems. STEP ON what ever you planned to step across. DO NOT STEP OVER IT, LOG OR ROCK. There could be a snake lying just the other side of it. As for the snake biteing... he is just as offended of you being as you feel he is offending you. The walking stick will give better comfort and can be used as a deter if need be. But with safety first there is not more beautiful hiking. The next thing is the safety of rafters. Instead of "renting" a state approved watercraft craft the people buying a cheap tube and going down the river. Not only are alot of these people endangering their lives. But do not wear life jackets."
