I always take a look inside this shop when I am in Clarkesville, I never know what kind of treasures I might come across. There is so much to see and I have found several things that I purchased at very reasonable prices. Everything is very well organized and the girls are obviously very particular about what they bring into the shop. There are some beautifully restored and painted pieces for sale, as well as a clothing section in the rear of the store. I recommend giving yourself plenty of time to look around.

Flyhawk Farm & Tasting Room is a “must see” which does not disappoint. I have visited numerous tasting rooms in North Georgia over the years and this one was by far, the best! The owners are so lovely and the staff is knowledgeable and extremely helpful. The tasting room is georgeous and the wine is exquisite. You will be blown away by the breathtaking views of the grounds, horses and Yonah Mountain. I highly recommend a visit.

In early March 2021, I was in Atlanta for a business trade show. I was able to finish everything I needed to accomplish on Saturday which provided me with time on Sunday morning to visit this museum before I drove home. This is NOT the Peterson Auto Museum or the Henry Ford Museum. However, this museum is EVERY car (or girl) guy's dream. A large space to display their automobiles and memorabilia. The items in the museum are not multi-million dollar concours pieces that only travel in covered trailers and never see the road. Instead, these are personally owned automobiles that have a great personal connection to their owners and usually are very important to their owner's families. Most of the items displayed in the museum are the life's work of collecting, restoring, and a source of family enjoyment of their respective owners. Where else does one have the opportunity to publicly indoor display the family car they rode in as a child and is now a collectible automobile that many others would enjoy seeing and reminiscing of their personal experience of a similar automobile? I find it important to note that the items on display are regularly changing, so a return trip is likely to have very different items on display than you viewed on your last visit. The drive to and from the museum is tranquil and scenic. The admission price is very fair and I found it to be an excellent value. As an added bonus, the indoor flea market that houses the museum is amusing to walk through on your way in and out of the museum. I greatly applaud Sean and everyone who keeps the museum and displays clean and regularly changing.
