1. Cochran Mill Nature Center

Reviewed By Mog3 - Ellenwood, Georgia
What an adventure! this day hike was full of wonderful rustic buildings, water falls, children swimming,, babbling brooks, twisted vines and curious white tailed deer. Yep they come close and linger long, if you know make too much noise. If you are short on time take the orange trail ( across the Cochran Mill Rd. from the parking lot) Be sure to pay your fee and there are clean well stocked restrooms near the play ground. Lease your pooch and prepare to enjoy. Bring extra shoes and clothes ( you could fall in by accident, lol a blanket , jacket , bug repellent, a light if its late in the afternoon ; then get ready to be amazed. Rustic buildings at the intersection of Rivertown Rd and Cochcran Mill R.. Restaurants near by after your explorations. There are several trails to fit your ability. Just do it , what a trip . I will be doing it again.

This theater is a gem we folks on the south side of Atlanta cherish! Easily accessible from I-85 south, exit 61, the Legacy Theatre has brought first-class theatrical experience to a new level of excellence. The theater is compact, containing not one bad seat, the ticket prices are affordable (seniors and students can receive discounts, as can groups) and every production we have seen has left us eager to return. This theater's superb casts and quality productions are making an impact. Don't miss out!
3. Serenbe Trail Riding

Reviewed By futuretraveler_11 - Atlanta, Georgia
This is not for children and inexperienced riders. In my opinion a person planning on participating in this activity has to be at least an intermediate rider and have had some riding lessons previously unless you want to get bucked and thrown to the ground and not refunded. This is not what I had expected as a trail ride. The trail leader didn't give us basic instructions in riding and the horses were temperamental. Although I do love Serenbe, I cannot go without giving a bit of my warning, especially to those who want to bring their children for trail riding. Please message me if you'd like more details about my experience.

Love the golf cart path neighborhoods, staples and restaurants around PTC. Safe for family and kids. All the residents and visitors know the paths exist and are careful. In many of the higher traffic area they've created paths above and below the streets to foster the safety.

The Local Historical Society is redoing their museum and things might get hopping in the near future. It is now under renovation till summer of 2016.
6. Starlite Family Fun Center
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 12 reviews
Reviewed By Breely22 - Los Angeles, California
Granted it was summer, mid week. However, they were running a camp, which consisted of about 100 little kids running around without supervision. Unless you count the 13 year old patrolling the rink and laser tag. I also saw another teenager who was playing in the arcade who "worked" here.
It cost me $85 for my kids to skate and play laser tag, and for us to share a pizza and pitcher of soda.
The arcade has 16 games, not included in price. They didn't have my 10 year olds skate size, probably due to the daycare camp. She had to use a size bigger.
The lady running the food was nice, but very busy on her own.
I saw one of the daycare kids wipe out pretty bad, he had a huge knot on his head. Looks like they called mom to pick him up.
Was told my 10 year old daughter was too tall for the playground area, even though it seemed a lot of bigger kids were in there.
My 13 and 15 year old were way to old for the place. Designed for 10 and under.
Bummer because I was hoping for something fun to beat the heat.
7. Downtown Newnan
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 203 reviews
There are few places in the United States that have retained their link to the past as Coweta County and Newnan, Georgia have. From the settlement of the town in 1828 to the new millennium, Newnan has kept the heart of Coweta beating with a firm grasp on its rich and colorful history, while looking forward and embracing the future.

LOVED this charming, historic town. If you visit here, BE SURE to go by the old courthouse (now visitor center) and get a walking map of the historic homes (the several blocks of gorgeous Victorian homes are within walking distance of the courthouse). The gentleman in the visitor center was SO nice and helpful and welcoming to the town - EXACTLY what you would expect in the South (people are just nicer here!). The homes are gorgeous and privately owned and will take your breath away. It's a fun, free thing to do in this wonderful town of Newnan.

The museum is directly beside the train tracks. We saw a train speeding by. The museum is open on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The docents are volunteers, and they LOVE trains. The man was very smart about local history. Stop by the museum. It will only take 30-45 minutes.

I like visiting Shamrock Park. There is a playground, tennis court, pavilion, and a path to run and walk around the lake. I do like walking around the lake. It's a great place for exercising. Also you might see a train while you're there. I would highly recommend you to visit this place.
