Things To Do
Local Sips
There are a number of places to visit in the area, depending on your preference! Wineries: Paradise Hills, Odom Springs, Crane Creek, Serenberry Breweries: Grumpy Old Men, Angry Hops, Tipping Point Distilleries: Grandaddy Mimm's, Roadside
Local Bites
Don't limit yourself to these options, but some nearby recommended dining spots include: Lala's Kitchen (Cuban/Latin food) Hole in the Wall ("Hearty" American fare) Jim's Smokin Que Waffle House :)
Vogel State Park
Hiking trails, lake swimming, putt-putt, playgrounds, paddle rentals, etc. Something for everyone in one location!
Brasstown Bald
The highest spot in Georgia! Options to hike or take a shuttle up for panoramic views.
North Georgia Towns
There are a number of neighboring towns in North Georgia that offer something a little unique: Helen is a Bavarian-inspired town with antiques and tubing down the Chattahoochee River. Dahlonega offers the chance to strike it rich panning for gold. Blue Ridge is the Trout Captial of Georgia and the home of the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway.
Hiking
To try out the Appalachian Trail, we recommend hiking up Blood Mountain (4.4 miles). And there are some short trails to waterfalls nearby, which are a bonus for cooling off in the summer! Helton Creek Falls - 0.3 miles High Shoals / Blue Hole Falls - 2.5 miles Sea Creek Falls - 0.5 miles
Golfing
(Disclaimer: You might want to do your own research on this instead of taking our word for it.) Brasstown Valley looks pretty swanky and is only a 20 minute drive from the venue. Butternut Creek is a steal of a deal at $50, is located right in Blairsville, and has pretty good reviews. Or, for those after our own hearts, you may want to check out Blairsville Ice Cream & $5 mini golf.
Lasso the Moon Alpaca Farm
Saw this on Google and Kate is intrigued. Tours are available via their website.
