About Dallas Landing Park
Dallas Landing Park is an 82-acre City of Acworth park on the shore of Lake Allatoona, featuring a designated public swim beach, a managed swimming hole for anyone after a lake to swim in around Acworth. It operates seasonally (April 11 through September 13) with a daily parking fee, and offers picnic and recreation facilities alongside the beach.
The park sits on the Lake Allatoona shoreline off Allatoona Drive near Main Street in Acworth, Georgia, described by the city as a beach setting with scenic views over the reservoir.
Swimming at Dallas Landing Park
The park has a designated public swim beach on Lake Allatoona. There is no lifeguard on duty, and the city provides life vests on-site for swimmers' safety, suggesting a casual, family-oriented shoreline swim area rather than a deep-water or current-driven spot.
How to get to this swimming hole
Located at 5120 Allatoona Drive, Acworth, GA 30101, on Allatoona Drive off Main Street, overlooking Lake Allatoona.
Parking: On-site parking with a $15.00 daily fee, credit cards only (no cash accepted).
The walk in

On the water
The official City of Acworth park page (already cited in the prior dossier) describes Dallas Landing as a designated swim beach with a group pavilion and picnic facilities, not a boat ramp, and no source found this pass mentions kayak, canoe, or paddleboard launching at this specific beach. Wikipedia's Lake Allatoona article confirms the lake broadly supports 'water sports' and 'paddle boating' and lists eight privately operated marinas elsewhere on the lake that provide rentals, but none of those marinas' offerings at this specific site could be confirmed this session, so no watercraft types are listed as confirmed-allowed here.
