Sunset on Lake Allatoona
Whatever life brings you from day to day, sometimes you just have to slip away. You remember those great spontaneous getaways - the antique shop where you found the missing sugar bowl matching your grandmother's china, that wonderful little diner with great homemade pie, and that spot by the lake where dreams were made. Find your next free spirited reflection in Cartersville, Georgia.
You can see things clearly here: the ancient hills of the Cherokees' Enchanted Land, the outline of fish in sparkling waters, the constellations, the sunrise, your direction. You can't see the city lights (the mountains get in their way), but you can be at a Braves game or strolling Atlanta's Centennial Olympic Park in less than one hour, if you like.
The nearest theme park is 30 miles away, but thrills await in the wonders of nature at Red Top Mountain State Park. Try chasing a boat while holding on to a rope on the waters of Lake Allatoona, or explore all the coves in your chartered houseboat and tip your captain's hat at the stars. Discoveries are made daily in downtown Cartersville, a Georgia Main Street City. From theatre to art, fine fashions to home decor, biscuits to an old-fashioned bakery, downtown Cartersville will surprise you.
Our historic sites and self-guided tours will leave you better read on some of the south's most interesting pages of history. You'll find energy and excitement in challenging golf and pristine hiking trails. And let's not forget the creature comforts. When your day is done enjoy a great southern meal and turn in at one of our 1,600 guestrooms or curl up by the fire at your choice of 1,000 campsites.
