Top 22 things to do and attractions in Dawsonville

Worth the visit! Cool stories, cars and memorabilia. Fun chatting with the guys that work there.

This museum is a wonderful display of racing history. Meeting Mr Bell and Mr Pirkle was just the best. They shared so much history and their love for racing was the best. Beautiful exhibits and museum. It is a must do and highly recommend!

First time visiting the Georgia Racing Hall of Fame and did not leave disappointed. Friendly staff and lots of neat racing history at this museum. 100% recommend if you have never visited before! Enjoyed the Halloween decorations on display throughout the museum as well.

The Georgia Racing Hall of Fame is a MUST-SEE for any and everyone who loves racing history, young or old. It perfectly captures the sport's authentic roots AND Dawsonville's / the state of Georgia's prolific moonshining past. The real treasure here is discovering the stories of foundational figures like NASCAR co-founder Raymond Parks and legendary early drivers like Lloyd Seay and Roy Hall. While the iconic cars of the Elliott family are present, the museum truly shines by honoring the entire legacy of Georgia racers. This place is no stuffy corporate museum, it's a PASSIONATE & genuine tribute to ALL the legends who made Georgia the birthplace of stock car racing.

I received a military discount that was good! Great little museum for anyone who likes NASCAR and remembers the good old days of Awesome Bill! Even better to see how Chase has made his mark!

Didn't go in, but the gift shop was good and through the big picture windows looked really interesting.

Always thr perfect host. Enjoyed another fun year at the Moonshine Festival.

What a great stop! We popped in on a Friday afternoon to look at getting some moonshine and ended up spending an hour and a half in there! The tour was entertaining and enjoyable! Our tour guide was a distiller and knew the process front and back! We tried 7 or 8 different moonshines and picked one out to take home. I wouldn't recommend this for anyone under 21 as it might be boring but for adults it's a great little find! I'll be back!

Very interesting place to see plus what's not to love that it's owned by my favorite Nascar driver's dad, Bill Elliott. They can let you try samples. Great tasting moonshine! We bought the sample pack.

Loved it. The shine and whiskey tasting was great and the still tour with Bullet Bob was informative. With the GA Racing Hall of Fame in the same building it's a definite must see.

Great experience! This is some of the best moonshine I have ever had! That White Lightening will knock your socks off! Happy, Rocket Man, and Bullet Bob are awesome! They even named me The Bronx Bootlegger 😁 #gratitude #loveinlifeessentials #thebronxconnect #bootleggin

Spent about $90 for apple pie moonshine, rye whiskey and a peach mixer which is supposed to go well with the white lightning moonshine that I have at home. Yes, it was pricey but my husband and I both enjoy the moonshine. This is the 1st time I'm drinking their rye whiskey. Wanted to get their limited edition bourbon ($60) but could not taste test it since it was limited 🥺. My friend however did buy a bottle so I'll get to try it😁

This little place was a nice stop. Took a tour and they are very knowledgeable and interesting history of his moonshine distilling family of 4 generations. A must stop if in the area.

This place is awesome full of cool history and good moonshine.

My husband & I paid and entered 4 pictures in their June 25th photography contest. When we came to the opening, all of the (approx 150) entries were displayed with nice Bowen ID info/picture cards - except ours! Our pics were hung on the wall with No information for the judge or viewers to see. Also, all of the participants had nicely printed name tag & lanyards on the table except us. A nice lady, GiGi, came by and asked if we were participating & looked for our cards. When she saw we had no lanyard id's, she hand wrote them up. I told her that none of our pictures had id cards either. I showed her our pictures & she was surprised. She went to ask the organizer, Ginny, and was told that she couldn't find them! We were Totally disappointed in the whole experience. We spent time and money to enter this contest and were not even acknowledged. It was our 1st And LAST time there.

Bauitful old building has Pictures of all kinds .They where all good.I signed the register to show I was here .The lady was so kind and sweet she showed us around.I suggest you visit this place.

Nice small town gallery. This old rock building is charming. Frequently changing exhibits and a friendly Director to answer any questions. Come visit often and try taking a class or attending a concert.

Cindy is the Art Center Curator & is extremely knowledgeable & helpful to all those who enter the Center! She also informed me of future exhibits & classes available for those interested in new experiences! Currently the exhibition is the BIG CANOE ART ASSOCIATION but soon Cindy will be hosting a 3 room NATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHY EXHIBITION!

Historic School house in Dawsonville Ga. is an Art Center, visited for a look at the Model Aircraft on display. The facility has many displays during the year and is a must see for any local artist. The Model Aircraft Club of North Georgia had the display and an aircraft flight simulator.

The Bowen has a new show nearly every month. Incredible facility especially for such a small town. Lots of talent and art here.

Great artistic work to be seen and purchased. Beautiful quilts made by locals. Make me want to finish mine.

For 3 years I thought this was an actual pool hall. Instead it’s a super casual, early NASCAR themed grub spot. Burgers have been good both times. You are going to wait for it though. I don’t care how busy or not they are. Servers are nice.

1st time visitor to this small hometown gem. My parents live in Atlanta & I'm visiting from Florida. They've been talking about this place for a while now. I ❤️ Nascar. It was small, homey, great food, & great service. The Bully Burger was delicious 😋. Thank you 😊

1st time here. I didn't have any expectations. All i wanted was a burger. This burger is called a bully burger. Came with ketchup, mustard, roar onions and coleslaw. I was open minded. This burger lacked flavor. I added some salt to it, but that didn't help. The fries had a weird smell when I opened the bag. Very limp, no salt and tasted weird. There's to me having an open mind. Try this spot if you are in that area. Let me know, you may have a better experience.

Average food.. Good race mastalgia. But it always takes too long to get a meal. Most working folks only have an hour for lunch, but here again I sit 60 minites and still nothing to eat! Just like my last three visits. Guess I should know better by now. Just a good ole boy place to eat when y'all got nothing else to do.

Had to stop and check it out after going to the Georgia Racing Hall of fame. Had a couple app’s and Diet Coke’s. A lot of history on the walls.

Great people in this small hole in the wall and the Burgers are delicious

The Bully burger is one of the best burgers I've ever had in my life. I got the double and was amazing. The frys are delicious as well. Highly recommend.

I've been here a few times and it's always been a pleasant experience ! My son and a friend were able to relax n hang out, very calming.

My cousin and I popped in on a whim when our other plans didn't pan out. The employees were very helpful and we had a great time. Highly recommend!

We were there yesterday to make a couple of Father's Day presents. I wish I would have caught their names but both ladies were so kind and patient. My daughter, who has some sensory issues, was on the verge of a meltdown and their fun interactions, help, and reassurances saved the day! It was a great experience! I will definitely be back!

My daughter was over the moon to celebrate her 10th birthday at Outside The Lines. The ladies there were attentive to me, as the Mom and made sure I was as stress free as possible, but they also made the birthday girl feel like she was one in a million. They interacted with her and her guests on their level and they all had an absolute blast. My Daughter has some amazing memories with her friends and has asked to have every birthday until she turns 27 with Outside The Lines! I sure hope they stick around for a while ;)! Absolutely wonderful staff and such a wonderfully creative atmosphere for everyone to have a little fun!

I had so much fun here on my anniversary date! My boyfriend and I painted a big cookie jar together and we took a long time doing it (2.5hrs) but the time just flew by! Staff were so kind, friendly, and helpful! 10/10 would recommend for all ages, whether you like painting or not :)

Such a wonderful experience. I will definitely bring my kids back for more painting fun. Very budgeted for our summer fun and they had varieties of prices to choose from. I took a little longer to paint my piece than my kids. So, they entertained my children. Terri even drove to the store to buy sidewalk chalk for my 5 year old because he got "bored", waiting on me to finish. Great ladies. Mary and Terri made such a fun outting for our family.

If you haven't visited Outside the lines yet you should be making plans. Fantastic way to spend free time alone, with friends or children. Owners are not only friendly but always willing to give tips or explain new techniques. So many different things to choose from, every color you could want and many other supplies from stencils, stamps, and toothbrushes for speckles. Always my daughter's first choice if you let her choose what we are doing, and prices are great so I don't mind. We have tried a few places like this but none compare to Outside the Lines!

My husband and I come here whenever we can; our favorite breakfast by far! Mr James and his wife always treat us with the utmost love and respect, and always leave us with a smile on our face, a warmth in our hearts, and a belly full of delicious biscuits! Best breakfast, even better people. Bless the both of you 🙏

Came for the chicken biscuit and left with a great experience! Dinning room was closed, but that didn't stop us from eating the amazing food on the stumps outback! Preacher man was an amazing host, blessed our trip, told us awesome stories and even loaned us a flower pot for our stump breakfast! Don't miss out of the yummy chicken biscuit sandwich or the GIANT pancakes!!

Somebody needs to kiss that cook! One of the top 3 biscuits I have yet to have in my quest in finding the best breakfast in North Georgia! Probably the #1 on customer service!

These biscuits are amazing! They're just like grandma's biscuits but twice the size! They don't skimp on the meat either. I love this place. If you live close by, stop in; you'll be back. If you're passing through this is a must stop. If you live far away and reading this for some reason, you're missing out. Try it, you'll like it.

This is probably the friendliest place I have ever had a meal at, it was my first time ever going there but EVERYONE treated me as if I'd been eating 3 meals a day there for years.

My advice is: don't miss an opportunity to eat here! Good folks, great biscuits, really reasonable prices! Enough said!

Delicious bacon egg and cheese biscuits! They have a drive through which is awesome! Staff is very nice!

Early 2018 I ordered the Ruben and I was a little disappointed that there could have been more meat on it and a little bit more sour kraut on it. Still good however. I ordered the hand cut fries and they were great (you just can't get those anywhere anymore). The service was great and the food came fast. Visit 11/7/18 11:30 am - Not a great visit. I was told to sit anywhere that I felt comfortable and did so but upon sitting down I noticed the table was not even wipe down and had crumbs still on it, but had fresh silverware on there as if to skip over the cleaning of the table. The waitress took my drink order immediately but unfortunately forgot to offer me a straw. I told the waitress I needed the minutes but instead of coming back to me in a minute she decided to fill the salt shakers at the bar and made that for project for the next 5 to 10 minutes until finally I had to wave my oversize menu in the air and hail her down to get my order. I ordered the country fried steak with the green beans, which I definitely would not recommend ever considering I paid $12 for something that I would have paid half that amount and gotten two sides right around the corner in the Dawsonville square. The meal looks adequate initially but when I cut into the country fried steak it was mostly breading on the outside leaving a very very small piece of steak inside and the green beans when I tasted them tasted like they put vinegar (that's right folks.... that's what I said) on them and when I told the waitress about them she looked at me very oddly and I said please taste them if you wish and the people next to me told me that when the waitress went by the lady said to me "O my gosh I could smell the vinegar as she walked past me." The waitress came back and said O they sauteed the green beans in "wine" (my question is WHY and I've never heard that before). I was offered a substitute for the vegetable, but it arrived as I had finished my country fried steak. I was ready to leave and had to flag down the waitress again and ask her for my check and a to go drink. I saw her walking through the restaurant a few times handing out checks and doing a couple of other things and finally when I kept staring at her she realized she had forgot my tea sitting on the bar and promptly brought it over at that point. There was really no excuse for the bad service at all because the place was not busy at all. I don't know that I would go back again. UPDATE 3/22/19 The place is no longer in business folks! I can't say i'm surprised with the quality of food they were putting out.

Great environment, service was great. You can tell the owners are a daily part of running the business. Side salad was fresh, tomatoes, cheese, croutons, onions, etc. Live music on most Fridays and Saturdays. Chicken Philly was okay, just needed a sauce to really take it up a notch. Cheese, Chicken, onions, and peppers, just wasn't enough flavor. I look forward to trying other items on the menu.

Awesome food and atmosphere. Great wings, grilled pork chops with backed potato. Great side salad too. Margarita Yum. Great service. If you want to watch a game this is the place to go. Great for families with kids too.

The dining room is clean and sharp looking, real nice atmosphere for a tavern. I received very friendly service. I'd give it another chance, but the Chicken Philly I ordered wasn't tasty, something seemed off with the chicken.

Dined here on 4/22/16. Had an awesome waitress. Service was good. All of our food was delicious except my 4 year old daughter's grilled cheese sandwich. It was brought out burnt to a crisp. We sent it back and they brought us a new one. The new one was barely cooked; the cheese wasn't even melted. The kicker...management didn't come to check on us and we had to pay for it.

Not a bad place to go and hang out. Food was tasty. My wife seem to enjoy herself and the food that she had ordered. We went to listen to a local band perform and it was all good. The place was clean and the staff was very attentive to our needs and our desires and they were extremely friendly I had no problem leaving a nice tip.

Great service and a good variety of choices in the menu for a small tavern in Dawsonville. Chicken sandwich was tasty with fresh lettuce and tomatoes. Only downside was the fries, which were brown, greasy and yet undercooked. Still a good place for a bite and a beer

Fun park with a HUGE playground if I was a kid I'd be in heaven. Super fun we mainly focused on disc golf and it's a bit confusing where hole one is as there are no signs. Hole one is by the racing hall of fame. You will need to go to the disc golf site or the parks website and they will give you a topside view.

Awesome park. Excellent playground and amenities. Very enjoyable little 9 hole disc golf course. Signage and tee pads coming. The park is fantastically well maintained and a great park to bring the family too with great playgrounds and walking paths for bike riding and such. The layout provides a couple of holes you can really let loose on. The rest are short mid range and putter shots. Great course to work on your short game. Only takes an hour to play. We played the walking paths as OB creeks for added challenge.

We love coming here to play. My kids especially love the zip line. I appreciate the fact that the playground is enclosed by a fence with only one exit. The bathrooms are right outside of the fence by the playground, and they are exceptionally clean. We also have fun using the disc golf course - we just had to watch out for the dog poo a couple of times. There are also nice picnic tables near the disc golf baskets, which seem to be a little dangerous, but we avoided hitting anyone.

This large park is located behind the Georgia Racing Hall of Fame. It was a nice break after a chili dog from the cookout to walk around as the park has over 1.1 miles of paved trails that has benches all along. Lots of goings on here including a playground with a wheelchair-accessible swing, 9-hole disc golf course "Shiners 9" and cornhole boards. Three picnic pavilions with charcoal grills are available to reserved through City Hall. Fitness stations, dog park and more features are coming! Very cool park and well worth a stop when you're in Dawsonville.

It's a great place to go out.Take your young kids and enjoy a good peace people.That's full lot and I love the fact that they have exercise machines for you and for the disabled

We found this great little park recently and decided to stop by this weekend to check it out. It was just the perfect place to stop and enjoy some ice cream with the pups followed by a walk around the park. There is a great area for parents to bring their kids to play in the playground safely gated and very clean.

This place is one of my favorite parks for the kiddos. Until today. A little toddler got his finger caught in the space of this equipment. Could have broken it or cut it off if I had not ran over when I did. Never had any complaints about this park prior. Will report to county Monday Morning in hopes they get it fixed or removed. It’s a liability for the county and unsafe for kiddos.

Beautiful store with a great selection of different styles and reasonable prices. Inventory is displayed beautifully and the staff members are friendly and personable. Found the perfect pair of chairs for my sunroom even though I was only checking out the shop with a friend!

This store is amazing, such a hidden gem for rare "found items", but also very elegant home furnishings and adorable baby gear. I put together a birthday gift for my daughter there and a great baby shower gift, also found some fabulous things for my home. The staff was very friendly and very helpful.

Beautifully laid out, filled with quality finds and friendly staff ladies! We enjoyed browsing and left with an armful of treasures!

My wife and I love this small little antique shop, we go in monthly, and see all the neat stuff! Amazing staff, super friendly, definitely still has the small town business feel that most of the town has lost! Definitely stop in say hey!

Love this boutique! Very clean, well polished items and delightful finds. Found the perfect bench/ottoman at a great price. One of the regulars was in there shopping and helping me decide. What great vibes here. Thank you Mary for your help today! Will be back!!

LOVE this adorable boutique. If you are looking for amazing and unique finds, and a lovely atmosphere with artistic flair, then check out Fancy Flea! I also love the owner, Mary 💙 🌺

I love this shop. It’s so charming and the ladies who work here are so helpful and they play such nice music! I went in today (not the first time) looking for Dixie Bell paint and the woman who was working was so helpful and knowledgeable. I highly recommend!

Small store with a broad range of antiques. Seem to specialize in vintage signs, tshirts, and sweatshirts. Neat and clean with friendly staff.

Wonderful finds & great staff. Mary Kay is knowledgeable. Very friendly, helpful, and great personality. Will be a returning customer.

Great selection of some very nice furniture and other antiques, bright open very clean. Mary Kay spent a lot of time with us and was really helpful.

Enjoyed the shop and the owner was super nice. Shopped there and then she told us where all the other cool shops were.

The people who work there are extremely friendly and the shop has a good selection for the size of the building. A must see

Adorable antique store! I am happy that I found some treasures that I couldn't live without, and a couple even marked down.

Very good staff, items and wonderful prices galore!

This place is the best! Amazing products and even better service! I recently had surgery and can't leave my bed, but there was a shirt that my mom really wanted for Christmas, and Misty brought the shirt to my front door for me because I couldn't drive there! She has forever earned my business!

Love my top and earrings! Quick response and very prompt shipping!! Will order again!

Kind staff, great variety and fair prices. Love this store!

Checkout Purple Corn Boutique! Cute cothes, great prices, and friendly staff! Shop local or you can shop online if you’re not local!

The best boutique!!! Great customer service and amazing products

My favorite boutique! I love there dresses! And staff and owner are amazing!

Awesome local owned boutique! Cute clothes and awesome people!! My favorite store in Dawsonville hands down!!

Great job!!!! Myself and two other friends had come into town, on a rainy day looking for something to do. After asking for a tour, we found that the tours are only available on the weekend. After a very friendly conversation with Whitney, she took it upon herself and asked a person to come up front from working. Very quickly Adam Came up and did a really great tour with us! Man oh man this is how it’s supposed to go. Whitney’s self initiating to get us a tour, shows me customer service is not dead. In fact she demonstrated “ how to” great job

What a treat! Stopped by here on a whim, as we saw there was a new distillery open in the area. Drew was a fantastic host for us, and helped us navigate our top choices for our flights. The service was awesome, the spirits so yummy and our take home goodies will make great Christmas gifts!

I love this place! Great drinks, great vibes, great employees. Drew and Matt are incredible! Music bingo was also so much fun! I will definitely be back!

Good beer, Matt and Drew were friendly bartenders, and the tasting room was very nicely set up. I stopped in today while in the area, I’ll definitely come back when up there again. Thanks guys!

Drew was amazing! Polite and respectful very knowledgeable about the product. But he absolutely has no business being that thickkk. Will most certainly visit this Waffle House again.

Thanks Matt for a fun and informative afternoon. Nice place with very tasty beverages.

Amazing service from Jerome. Highly recommend this place.

(Translated by Google) With next to nothing the Americans always manage to make us love things we don't know. Nice visit (Original) Avec 3 fois rien les Américains arrivent toujours à nous faire aimer des choses que l'on ne connait pas. Belle visite

Love our City and everything it stands for! Our Mayor, John Walden and his team are top notch and we appreciate their service! Continue striving for a better tomorrow and making this city our home!

This place is truly a refreshing escape into nature. The moment you arrive, the sound of rushing water and the crisp, fresh air instantly create a calming atmosphere. The waterfall is absolutely beautiful as it cascades down the rocks, surrounded by lush greenery and seasonal colors that make the entire view feel alive. Standing near it, you can’t help but pause and soak in the serenity it brings.The trail leading up to the falls is well maintained, marked clearly, and lined with tall trees that offer both shade and stunning views. The gentle breeze, mixed with the earthy scent of the forest, makes the hike enjoyable and relaxing. Even in the fall, the play of golden and red leaves adds a magical touch, making every step of the journey worthwhile. What I love most is how peaceful and energizing this place feels. It’s the perfect spot to disconnect from the busyness of everyday life and simply be present in nature. Whether you’re hiking, taking photos, or just sitting quietly to listen to the water, every visit leaves you refreshed and renewed. This is one of those places you’ll want to return to again and again. 🌿💧🍂🍁😇

Amicalola Falls is absolutely breathtaking! The views are stunning from every angle — whether you’re looking up from the base of the falls or hiking to the top. The sound of the rushing water and the mountain air make it such a peaceful escape. We enjoyed exploring the trails, and the steps to the top are definitely a workout but completely worth it for the view! The park is clean, well-maintained, and perfect for all ages. There are plenty of picnic areas, beautiful overlooks, and friendly staff throughout the park. If you’re planning a visit, take your time to enjoy the scenery — it’s truly one of Georgia’s most beautiful spots. Great for a day trip, a weekend getaway, or just a little time in nature to refresh your soul.

Amicalola Falls is an absolute must see! The waterfall is stunning, and the trails offer amazing views and fresh mountain air. The visitor center and gift shop were great especially the mini wildlife display! A huge thanks to Carla, who was so knowledgeable and friendly while helping us plan our route to the falls. The stairs up and down were a fun adventure with breathtaking views. This park is truly a peaceful, beautiful Georgia jewel. Can’t wait to return!

I had not been here since I was a child it’s become a beautiful state park! It was on the way back from a trip so I had to stop and catch a little hike to see the waterfall and I’m glad I did! The guest service in the lodge is outstanding too. Great place to grab some food to refuel afterward.

Absolutely love Amicalola Falls!!! My boyfriend and I come here several times a year. It's peaceful, beautiful, and just a wonderful experience. If you have never been I strongly recommend coming here! It's not too far to the base of the falls. If you're afraid of heights and don't want to climb the stairs, you can drive to the top, don't worry! However you experience it, it's worth the drive to witness this magnificent scenery!

My wife and I had a wonderful experience at this park today. It was $5 to get in and it had a ranger station which was pretty impressive. They had information centers plus they had the souvenir section which was very well stocked. The rangers were very knowledgeable and friendly. There was a ATM on site and purified water stations by the toilets. They also had three Park stamps instead of one hours of collect patches in the wife collects postcards and magnets as well. Drive across the street from the ranger station up that road and come to your first parking space on the right. Then go down the walkway, not the stairs and about .3 mi you'll come across the middle of the falls. Then you get back in your car and go up to the top. Behind the ranger station is access to the Appalachian trail which is kind of neat. I would have liked to have hiked that but I'm too old for that now. The restrooms were very clean and we had a wonderful time.

Stunning views from the top...one of the best spots to see the fall colors! $5 entry fee to the park with a visitor center and there’s a boardwalk leading to the falls with steps you can climb to the top. You can also drive up (limited parking available).

I visited Uncle Shuck’s for the first time with my whole family, and it was an amazing experience! The entire place was so well organized and thoughtfully planned, with plenty of fun activities for everyone to enjoy. The corn maze was unique and such a great way for the whole family to spend time together. All of the staff and vendors were incredibly friendly, kind, and cheerful, which made the visit even better. We had a blast exploring, bought pumpkins and honey, completed the maze, and visited the farm animals. I highly recommend it—truly the BEST experience! I love North Georgia!!!

My family has been going to Uncle Shuck's since they moved to this location in 2019. We LOVE Uncle Shuck's! This fall we purchased the season passes. We go weekly and spend about 2.5 hours each visit. My toddler loves Uncle Shuck's! For kids they have the jumping pad, gem mining, tire mountain with slides, animals (goats, pigs, chickens, turkeys), corn cannon, bonfires, wagon ride, pumpkin patch, 3 mazes in the big corn and a kiddy maze. There's also a haunted maze that my husband and I use to do before we had kids. Love it! My daughter specifically loves the jumping pad, tractor ride, and looking at all the pumpkins. She loves sitting on the tractor by the pumpkin patch and pretending to drive it. My husband and I love doing the corn maze every year and solving the mystery. We always guess and take bets on the weapon, location, and the criminal. The pumpkin selection is also amazing! The prices are also unbeatable. The porta pottys are always clean. There's always running water, soap, and paper towels. It breaks my heart to read negative reviews. Uncle Shuck's is not an amusement park, it's a family fun farm. There's going to be lines. We have always felt safe at Uncle Shuck's with our 2-year-old and newborn. A goat bit my daughter but she stuck her hands through the fence AND there are signs EVERYWHERE with warnings! They genuinely do their best to provide a fun and safe experience. The staff is always kind and friendly. We have never left disappointed.

We always have an amazing time at Uncle Shuck’s Corn Maze! Not only do they have a huge corn maze that you are certain to get lost in, but they have a really cool general store, a corn gun, a gay ride, and you can even roast s’motes. On the way out, don’t forget to grab a pumpkin! Highly recommend this place for the whole family!

I bought tickets for both corn maze and haunted trail. I arrived around 7pm and noticed a line forming for the haunted trail. I figure let's try do a small section of the corn maze before getting in line. I was told my the attendant lines usually last 20min-1hr before getting into actual trail. I got in line at 745pm and waited 2 hours before getting into trail. We got in at 9:45pm. The trail took 15mins to go thru and it was so crowded that the suspense and thrills were ruined because you can see the group ahead or behind us getting scares. By the time we were out it was 10:00pm, and the place was closed,but there was still a line of people for the haunted trail. The video below is of the line that we saw when we walked out of the trail. We didnt have time to go thru the rest of the corn maze. Also didnt see the pumpkin patch, hay rides canon shots or bonfire because we spent so much time just waiting for one attraction. What a rip off. The attendant should of really advised that i only had time to do one or the other. I tried to see if i can get a rain check to come back tomorrow to at least check out the cornmaze but then they said no. Also the one conssession stand that didnt have the longest lines also ran out of most of what they were selling. Way to be prepared for the weekend. They deserve zero stars.

We came to this farm after a very long time and glad to see that its still the same for fun. Our kids are older now so they didn't go to any activities. But there is plenty of things to do for kids like jumpy pad, farm animals( its not a petting zoo), corn canon and gem mining. Their corn maze is amazing. They have different activities and check points in the corn maze which kept my kids kept looking for more. This farm also have some eating spots like boiled peanuts, nachos, funnel cakes and different kinds of drinks. There is also a small shop for souvenirs. You can also do pumpkin picking here.

it was pretty fun here. the corn maze was fun, both me and my husband enjoyed it. the lines were just really long for food and even the hay ride. we also enjoyed the pumpkin patch a lot and took nice photos

Fun Fall Experience for the Whole Family! Uncle Shuck’s Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch was a great place to visit — especially since it’s close by! We took my in-laws, who are visiting us, to show them some classic fall festivities in the U.S., and they really enjoyed it. The corn maze, wagon rides, and overall atmosphere were festive and fun. 🎃 The only downside was that it got quite dusty, especially on the pathways and around the maze, so I’d recommend wearing comfortable shoes and maybe bringing a mask or scarf if it’s windy. Overall, it was a wonderful fall outing and a great place to soak in the autumn vibes with family!

had the loveliest experience visiting a garden owned by a sweet lady named Suzanne. It honestly felt like stepping into a fairytale — the garden was vibrant, full of colors and life, and Suzanne herself was just as magical. She welcomed us with so much kindness and warmth, making the whole visit feel personal and special. My sisters, husband, and I enjoyed every moment of the little tour she gave us. We even brought home some beautiful flowers, and they remind us of her peaceful garden. If you’re ever nearby, visiting Suzanne’s garden is an absolute must! 🌸🌿✨

Jungle Paradise is a beautiful garden of Lilies that seem to go on forever and ever. It's a great place to do amazing photos. The owner Suzanne is such a wonderful person and a joy to talk to. This place is incredible.

Suzanne was such a pleasure, her energy was amazing. It's no wonder why her garden is so bright and colorful. The beauty of this place was very captivating, #highly recommend

Suzanne is always very friendly. She is a hard worker. You can pick out flowers, and she will dig them right up for your purchase. So many varieties to choose from. So beautiful & peaceful out there.

Absolutely stunning!!! I can’t say enough great things about this beautiful place & Suzanne is SO sweet & knowledgeable! 1000% HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! I can’t wait to come back. Thank you so much Suzanne!!🌸🌺💐

If you love daylilies don’t miss this place. Suzanne’s place is magical. 🤩 So many varieties and reasonably priced. She is very knowledgeable and loves her flowers. ❤️ Mid to late June is peak bloom. Rows upon rows of color and beauty.

Still the most wonderful place I know to buy beautiful hybrid daylillies which thrive in all weather conditions. Took home several plants full of buds and blooms!

Me and my friends had amazing time on this 4th of July! Originally we booked level 2 but we loved it so much so we end up doing all 3, with longest zip line Ralph ride at the end. What a view! We had great tour guides Andrew and Matthew, who gave us good directions what to do and how to be safe. Please read rules and listen what they say bc your safety its their priority. Great experience! 💚

Blaze and Ben were safe, smart, funny and really made the experience. We did this as a company team building event and it did not disappoint. Can’t recommend this enough. The views are breathtaking. The 2k ft zip at the end 🤯 - don’t take my word for it. Book it

Had a great time zip lining. Caleb and Blake were great and made the experience more enjoyable. They did a great job teaching us what to do but also making it a fun and enjoyable experience. Would definitely recommend them to friends for future trips!

We all had a fantastic time with Amicalola Zipline. Our guides were great at giving instructions to keep us safe and threw in a few jokes to keep things fun. Once our youngest puts on a few more lbs we will definitely go up to the next levels. This was a great starting experience!

I have no other experience in this sport to compare Amicalola to but I thought this was an amazing zip line. I felt safe, well instructed, and overall no concerns. The views on Level 2 were great. Level 3 was out of this world as you zip along at a very high speed over quite a distance with views of the mountain valley and the varying heights of mountain tops.

My husband, Spencer, and I came here for one of our stops on our honeymoon and it was FANTASTIC! Our guides, Sarah and Ben, were soo knowledgeable, funny, friendly, and professional. They really have a way of making you feel safe while still having an amazing and fun time! I’m slightly afraid of heights but love all things adventurous so I was excited to sign up but a little nervous when the day actually came. Their dedication to safety and thorough explanation of everything made me feel so at ease. If you’re in the area and considering ziplining, don’t hesitate! Book here and you’ll have a wonderful time!

Amicalola State Park is amazing! I highly recommend exploring everything they have to offer including the Zipline & Aerial Adventure Park! Ten out of Ten! You'll wish you would have stayed longer once it's time to leave.

Good area for a quick hike and the Amicalola is beautiful scenery. The trail loops around and is moderately easy. About 3.5 total miles. The area that was cut many years ago is growing back. The river provides plenty of opportunity for swimming, tubing, kayaking, fishing. The summer weekends can get really crowded and also the fall around the fall foliage time. Winter and spring are not as busy. Also, the late fall and winter months are better hiking because the brush on the side of the trails is not hanging over across the trail. The pine trees are growing back creating more cover which should eventually help the weed growth.

Beautiful area, but pick up your trash. Keep Georgia beautiful forever. If you fish, camp, or just visit - take everything you brought with you, and leave no trace.

All the gates were locked. I grew up down the road and now can't even go everywhere I want. A shame. Still pretty in the snow.

Tough place to hunt but has several beautiful places to go to. I'm not familiar with all the trails, but Amicalola Falls is very close and amazing to go spend time hiking with family.

Was looking for campsites but looked like homeless was living there

Creepiest place on earth. Too much meanness has gone on there. I always feel as if something malevolent is watching me. I dislike going during the day and will not go at night for all of the tea in China. I grew up around here and the legends and stories that come out of there would make your skin crawl. Great place to turn around and get gone from.

We were hoping the trails went a little further. The graffiti all over the place was very disappointing. We were looking for a nice safe place to walk our dogs, but with all the graffiti, I don't think that's the place for us.

I had the most wonderful experience at Around Back at Rocky’s Place! This hidden gem is full of one-of-a-kind folk art that speaks straight to the heart. I recently purchased this beautiful bear painting as a gift for a dear friend who has been one of my biggest supporters in business. I wanted something truly meaningful and the moment I saw this piece, I knew it was perfect. The atmosphere at the gallery is so warm and welcoming, and you can feel the soul behind every piece. If you’re looking for art with heart, or a gift that tells a story, I can’t recommend this place enough. Thank you to Tracy at Rocky’s for helping me find something so special!

A treasure of a gallery, filled with striking artworks and most definitely worth a visit. Tracey welcomed us on our visit and she showed us around the gallery, answering all our questions about different artists patiently and expertly. We ended up buying a large work that required complex shipping arrangements, and Tracey was kind and efficient throughout the whole process. We'll be back soon!!!

One of our favorite places to shop for Folk Art Pottery. Face Jugs and paintings are great. Tracey is very knowledgeable about the potters.

Rocky's is the place you read about it the travel guides that sound so special and amazing. We have visited Rocky's place and make it a stop on all our visits to Georgia because they have the best and most complete collection of American Folk Art we've see in our travels. Rocky's is run by two amazing women that have forged strong bonds with their artists to ensure only the best items are offered all at a fair and sometimes steal pricing. Be sure to visit around back at Rocky's place if you love art and want a great experience!!!

I have wanted a painting by Cornbread for a long time. Recently I contacted Tracey at Around Back at Rocky's and she was wonderful! I received my painting on Monday and I love it. I hope to some day get to Dawsonville so I can see all the artists work at her gallery.

I love this place! So much to see, and the owners are friendly and very knowledgeable about all folk art. I could spend hours looking around and hearing the stories of the artists and their work. Worth the trip to the beautiful Georgia mountains to visit this incredibly unique gallery!

I love folk art and this place is like a museum. There are so many things to look at you almost dont know where to look. They specialize in works by cornbread but there is also some Howard Finster and Mose Tolliver and plenty of others. And the proprietor is a great lady.

Rented the pavilion here for a birthday party. It has 6 large tables. It is set back from the parking lot and has a trail down to the water. We did have to contend with a large group of people standing nearby talking loudly. Two of the group showed up thinking they would use the pavilion until I mentioned that we had rented it. Outside of them being quite loud and standing nearby it worked well for us. The restrooms are a different story. You will want to bring your own soap, toilet Paper, paper towel and cleaning wipes if you plan on going to the bathroom. If there was a breakdown of areas to score I would give them a Zero. My eyes burned in the men's room from the smell of urine.

Launched and fished here with a friend, he caught a nice bag, I only got one. Only my second day of serious fishing in Georgia, so I'm learning. The ramp is good and sought lines are open, plenty of parking and access to a loading dock. Nice place to launch from.

My top 3 perks are No Parking Fee,Lots of Available Parking,Not Crowded!! I just wish there was more Picnic tables.

This park has quite a view of the water and trees as they ambush and shove each other on the coastline. The close up perspective is one not often viewed unless by way of boat and thus is worth the trip. There is a 4 table port with bathrooms nearby that can be reserved. It's a boat ramp and a fishing hole. The downside to this park was the amount of trash that gets left behind and littered, as well as an unkempt bathroom without a method to dry your hands. Regular check ups and a well-built playground would be great here.

This is our go-to place when we want to get away from the hustle and bustle of every-day life for a little calm time.

Quiet in the early mornings, not so much in the afternoons

Despite living in Dville for 12 years, I didn't this park existed until today. This morning it was uncrowded, tranquil, shady, with well defined paths and plenty of room for a picnic or just a blanket and your thoughts. I'm so glad my son introduced me to this little perfect place.

Love this park, but wish they had hiking trails.

Wonderful Park, for everyone in the Family! Kids play area with walking track around it. Skate park, Pickle Ball, Tennis courts, Football, Lacrosse and 1 1/4 track around the entire park. 3 Bathroom facilities, stadium seating with lights. Cant wait to see the next phase, softball complex, extended trails with bridges.

Great pavilion for events. Parking on a weeknight during soccer season stinks.

The park facilities are nice, nothing glamorous but in good shape. The reason it got the 5th star is because it is not busy and it's patrons are always pleasant with one another. It has an indoor gym, football field w/ track, baseball field and an outdoor pool (seasonal). Only flaw is that the batting cage area is not operational, I would be there 5 days a week if it were.

Nice park with a new playground!

Nice, quiet park to walk the dog! They have a walking/ bike trail that's about 8/10 mile around. Parking is all over the place because of the buildings and sports fields scattered throughout the park... So, most of the walking trails cut through the parking lots.

Its a very clean park with a great bike and walking trail. Berries grow in the summer there sometimes and its very kid friendly. Also i love playing pokemon go at this park. Overall, great experience and very well kept

I will never buy anything from him again. He sent me his worst worms and then refused to do anything for me. I wouldn't recommend him to anyone.
