Towne Lake

Towne Lake is a planned community in southern Cherokee County, Georgia, United States.

It begins approximately two miles (3 km) due west of downtown Woodstock and extends northwest, in an area formerly known to long-time locals as "Thousand-Acre Woods", originally part of the Little River State Wildlife Management Area, which has since completely succumbed to suburban development.

The community was developed by the Means Brothers Company in the late 1980s as an upscale residential enclave, but has become a bustling commercial area as well.

This significantly improved traffic at rush hour, though no attempt has been made to replant trees on the now-steep hillsides it created.

That southeast portion was grazed by a tornado in late November 1992, hitting the hill immediately northwest of the interchange with I-575 before dissipating, after having started further southwest just south of Oak Grove.
