Earlier this summer we hosted Kerry Murphy and her daughter at Getaway Chattahoochee outside of Atlanta for a mother-daughter Getaway to reconnect and explore the landscape of the Chattahoochee National Forest together. Read on to hear more about how they spent their time in nature.
Getaway Chattahoochee in Suches, GA (less than 2 hours from Atlanta) is absolutely adorable and located in one of my favorite areas of Georgia because there are so many great ways to enjoy the outdoors while you’re here like…
🏊 SWIMMING HOLE
Sea Creek Falls (part of Cooper Creek Wildlife Area) is a great spot to take a dip in the shallow water (easy accessible from the parking area via a short path).
🥾 HIKING
Preacher’s Rock is a moderate, 2-mile roundtrip hike with one of the the best views of the Georgia mountains you’ll ever see. To get there, park at Woody Gap Trailhead.
💦 WATERFALL
Trahlyta Lake Trail at Vogel State Park is an easy 1-mile loop trail with a waterfall and spectacular view of the lake and mountains. You will find lots to do at Vogel State Park including mini golf, swimming and paddle boat rentals.
🍉 PICNIC
Pick up snacks at the Sunrise Grocery called “the most charming country store in the south” by Southern Living Magazine and have a picnic at nearby Vogel State Park or Reece Farm & Heritage Center
