Wedowee
The lifestyle in Wedowee is truly small town. Wedowee is
close enough to all modern amenities and conveniences, yet far enough away from
the hustle and bustle of city life for a simpler lifestyle.
Wedowee is located in the center of a triangle with the
points being Atlanta, Birmingham and Montgomery. Lake Wedowee, also known as
Harris lake was built by the Alabama Power Company approximately 24 years ago.
Many beautiful homes have been constructed in newly built lakefront subdivisions
in the Wedowee area.
Lake Wedowee is
situated between Anniston and Auburn on U.S. 431. Both cities offer world
class golf on the Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail. Wedowee is less than 90
minutes from Atlanta and Birmingham where you can enjoy theatres, shopping
malls, fine dining, professional sporting events, or catch a flight to
anywhere in the world. For NASCAR fans, the Talladega Super Speedway is less
than one hour away
