Day Pass

Spend a full day on the lake, trails, courts, and sports lawn with Foxhall’s Day Pass—one wristband unlocks fishing, paddling, tennis, and lawn games in Douglasville, GA. Perfect for families and groups who want a variety-filled outdoor day without the planning hassle.

Foxhall's Day Pass delivers a full day of outdoors without the logistics headache: one wristband grants access to a private lakeshore, miles of mixed-use trails, rentals for kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards, plus courts and a lively sports lawn. Located at Foxhall Clubhouse in Douglasville, Georgia, the property sits on a freshwater lake rimmed by loblolly pines and sandstone outcrops, roughly thirty minutes west of Atlanta. The vibe is active and social—families, small groups, and solo visitors circulate between water and turf, chasing bites of sun and shade.

Start at the Foxhall Clubhouse for check-in (9am–5pm); staff issue wristbands and map the day’s options. Lakeshore fishing offers quiet coves favored by bass and bluegill; anglers can launch a canoe to reach deeper water. Paddleboard and kayak rentals put you directly onto calm, duck-populated bays, where reflections of granite ledges and pine grow-back make for easy exploration.

On land, hiking and biking trails thread through mixed hardwoods and occasional sandstone slabs, while tennis and pickleball courts sit a short walk from the sports lawn. The Sports Lawn is a social engine: horseshoes, bocce, lawn croquet, cornhole, and a firepit that becomes a low-key gathering spot as late afternoon cools. That mix—watercraft, trails, courts, and games—makes Foxhall an efficient all-in-one outdoor day: you can fish in the morning, paddle midday, then finish with a court game and a sunset around the firepit.

Wildlife is approachable here: expect to see great blue herons along the shore, occasional river otters, and abundant songbirds. The lake sits over Piedmont-aged metamorphic rocks that create small exposed slabs and shallow ledges on the shore—features that anglers and photographers appreciate. The area’s land-use history includes small farming parcels converted in the last decades into managed recreation space, a fact visible in the mosaic of open lawn and restored woodland.

Practicals: Day Pass pricing is $50 per adult and $30 for ages 12 and under; group size is limited to 10 for this booking. Bring a change of clothes, reef-safe sunscreen, and shoes that can handle mud and paddle decks. Rentals are first-come; popular weekends fill early.

For a compact, activity-dense day—equal parts calm lake time and light-adventure—Foxhall’s Day Pass is an economical way to experience Georgia’s Piedmont outdoors without sacrificing variety. Check the weather and call ahead for court availability; bring insect repellent during summer and a light jacket in fall and spring evenings. The clubhouse sometimes hosts pop-up instruction sessions for beginners—ask at check-in about short clinics for paddle technique or a quick tennis primer.

Foxhall's compact layout saves travel time between activities, making it a great option for families with mixed interests or groups that want to sample several pastimes in a single day. Book early online.
