State Route 328 (SR 328) is an arc-shaped 9.8-mile-long (15.8 km) state highway in the northeast part of the U.S. state of Georgia. The route connects Avalon and Lavonia and provides access to Lake Hartwell and Tugaloo State Park. It is known as Gumlog Road for its entire length.
SR 328 begins at an intersection with SR 17 in Avalon, in Stephens County. It travels in a roughly eastern direction and intersects Brookhaven Circle, the former path of SR 336. The highway travels through the Gumlog area of Martin and enters Franklin County and travels through the Gumlog precinct, G.M.D. 213. This section of Gumlog Road is a typical ridge road on the Savanna river system that runs down to a river wonderfully described in the book "Tobacco Road." On the South side of the ridge is Gumlog Creek, and on the north side of the ridge is Eastanollee Estuary, so called because the public sees a large estuary from brookhave Road. It begins to curve to the southeast at Tugaloo State park road. It crosses over the Gumlog Cove section of Lake Hartwell. SR 328 then travels in a roughly southern direction. It crosses over, but does not have an interchange with Interstate 85 (I-85, Ernest Vandiver Highway). The route then curves to the south-southwest and meets its eastern terminus, an intersection with SR 59 (Vickery Street) in Lavonia. Here, the roadway continues as Edgewood Drive.
