Three people drowned this past week at Georgia's Lake Lanier, adding to the more than 200 people who have died at the man-made lake since 1994.

The massive reservoir in northern Georgia has a macabre history, and there have been calls for a cleanup for safety reasons.

Georgia officials said a 20-year-old man drowned in the swimming area of the Jimmy Buffett’s Margaritaville on Lake Lanier over Memorial Day weekend.
