With a rural setting in the North Georgia mountains, and a population of just four-and-a-half thousand, Summerville is the perfect place to get away from it all. That also makes it one of the most romantic destinations in Georgia. Because with fewer distractions, you and your boo can focus on what’s most important: each other!
Summerville is located Northwest Georgia, about two hours from Downtown Blue Ridge and the North Carolina border. Its comfortable climate, idyllic mountain scenery, and friendly southern charm once made it a popular summer resort town, hence the name. But today, it’s one of the lesser-known vacation destinations in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Even so, Summerville still attracts savvy travelers. In fact, this Georgia town features several unique attractions that make it one of the most romantic destinations in Georgia. Let’s take a look at some of the best things to do during your romantic vacation in Summerville.
Once the private home and workspace of renowned folk artist Howard Finster, Paradise Garden is now open to the public, offering art lovers and those seeking a unique cultural experience the chance to step inside the mind of this legendary visionary. Spanning half an acre, the garden features installations, sculptures, found art, and more. Finster’s former studio now serves as a visitor center. From here, a path leads visitors to the garden’s main attraction, a multi-tiered, wedding cake-inspired structure known as the World Folk Art Chapel.
Surrounded by the serene beauty of the Chattahoochee National Forest, this tranquil park makes the perfect place for a romantic picnic. Choose from four dedicated picnic shelters. Or, pack a picnic blanket and find your own secluded spot away from the crowds.
In addition to romantic picnicking, James H. Floyd Park offers a lake, pedal boat rentals, three miles of loop trails around the lake, the famous Marble Mine Trail, and a playground. The park also features a small campground, as well as four cottages ideal for a couples retreat.
Quaint, characterful, and historic, Downtown Summerville is a great place to shop, eat, learn about the history of Summerville, or simply take a romantic stroll. Hunt for vintage and antique treasures at quaint shops like Hidden Treasures Antique and Flea and Peddler. Or, find that one-of-a-kind gift or fashion accessory for your significant other at Dirt Mercantile or Ga-Ga’s Boutique. Dining options tend toward cozy cafes and diners and include popular spots like Jefferson’s and Willow Tree Grill.
The Summerville Commercial Historic District is another must for your romantic Georgia getaways trip to Summerville. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, it features buildings dating from between the 1890s and 1950s. Visit the Chattooga County Courthouse (1909), a Neoclassical Revival-Style structure with a domed clock tower and pedimented Corinthian tetrastyle entrances. Other historic buildings include the Colonial Revival-Style U.S. Post Office (1937), the Arrington building (1894), and the Jail and Sherriff’s Office (1959).
