Went this last weekend, March 17 and the daffodils were in bloom making my wife in heaven. In the next week they will be more vibrant. This place is beautifully landscaped with all sorts of flowers and shrubs. Great place to walk and get exercise as well because it does have some hills. The Japanese Garden is gorgeous and is on the level down the center so no hills to conquer there. Tram does go around the garden for those who cannot do all the walking. We had a chance to visit with Mr. Jim Gibbs the owner, who is a very successful landscaper in Atlanta area. What a nice man. $20 admission per adult, but worth the trip.

An absolute must see if you are in this area! Absolutely beautiful foliage, clean air, away from the hectic city nearby and full of a range of healthy activities to plan. Visit nearby Dahlonega to learn about the history of the gold mining that was once the hub of this region of the southeast! Wonderful restaurants and museums! Go!

My group visited the winery today and had the best time! This place is a real hidden gem. Wesley made our tasting very special taking time to get group photos of us both inside and outside the vineyard and even made sure we liked the pictures before we finished.
He went absolutely above and beyond to serve our group of ladies and made Chateau Meichtry our hands down favorite winery of the day that we visited.
The wine was divine as well! The Susse Root red wine was one of our favorites along with the Old Vine Zinfandel.
What a beautiful place and wonderful staff! Don't miss it!

Home to more than 1,500 acres of mountainous terrain and the highest waterfall east of the Mississippi River.
Reviewed By JJdub505 - Atlanta, Georgia
The view from the lodge is breathtaking, especially if you walk up to it. The lodge is a little dated but woodsy, with some interesting art on the walls all making you feel like you are outside while being inside. All the staff were very helpful and friendly all of the food offerings were a buffet but you can order parts or all of that. They now have full bar offerings but that is a work in progress, they don't really have the space for it as yet. We were on the 1st floor which is below the ground level where you enter the lodge. These rooms have a small patio in back with sliding doors. The 2 queen rooms were adequate but a bit small.

On our mountain cabin retreat for Christmas week we visited Mountain valley farm to purchase something for Christmas dinner. We loved the farm seeing rabbits running free from one place to another. The property was beautiful with barns and a real farm feel. We also saw a baby calf in a shelter keeping warm. They had pigs and chickens not many out mostly in barns because it was so cold. I purchased 2 filet mignons and a cheddar cheese block. Those filets were the best we have ever eaten. They were tender and so flavorful. I wanted to buy milk & hamburger meat but as it was Christmas Eve they were sold out. I would definitely go back there again and they ship out of state. Yeah!

This was on the boys list of things to do on our trip.
Very interesting store. What I thought would be a 10-2 min stop ended up being a 1.5-2 hour stop.
The kids did gold panning, geode cracking, and then gem mining. Lol.
The staff was more than welcoming and involved with all the questions the kids had.
Great stop...

Reviewed By Rhyne A - Alpharetta, Georgia
This is a beautiful, wild area with quite a surprising amount to do. There is the covered bridge for pictures, the rocks for sliding, and a playground and picnic tables for family gatherings. It isn't crazy busy, and very shaded. However, you should know that I haven't been there without seeing someone get hurt in some way, so be careful and watch your kids!

We passed this place as we left Amicalola Falls State Park so we stopped because we were curious. Tons of pumpkins in all sizes, shapes and colors. Families were selecting their seasonal pumpkins and enjoying hayrides. There is a BBQ shack which we didn’t try. There is a store of course with jams, jellies, bread mixes, etc. Also, they had prepared breads such as pumpkin bread as well as muffins. We had a pumpkin muffin with chocolate chips. Delicious. Worth a visit if you’re in the area.
