Became known as “hospitality capital of the world” after the 1996 olympics. The rowing/kayaking events took place on the 38,000 acre Lake (Sidney) Lanier. Downtown Gainesville is filled with shops and restaurants, and marks the beginning of a to-scale model of the solar system.
This area in North Georgia is very “outdoorsy”, breathtaking scenery, laidback, southern hospitality, farmlands, vineyards, deer and wild turkeys.

Car is the best way to get around
Do not rely on public transportation. Car is the best way to get around. There are Uber & Lyfts but you may need to wait a little.
