SO GOOD!! We had Sunday brunch here. The meatloaf was unbelievably good. I had no idea that meatloaf could be unbelievably good! We also had shrimp and grits and fried green tomatoes. It was all fantastic.

This place is not much to look at, truly a hole in the wall. Their food is AMAZING, though! If you can get over the lack of ambience you will not be disappointed.

Yum and fun. The food truck is pricey but really tasty. All the meals come with freshly made chips that are so good. They have fun indoor activities too! Golf and shooting simulators, coin operated amusements and billiards for the whole family with a cigar bar and regular bar for the adults.

The trail is rated moderate to difficult for its rocky terrain but is so worth it for the waterfall featured along the way.

Stonewall Falls Loop & The White Twister The Stonewall Falls Loop and White Twister trails are just a short drive away from Glen-Ella Springs Inn near Tiger, Georgia. The Stonewall Falls Loop is a single-track trail about eleven miles long. It’s a challenging course, but also a rewarding journey! There are optional exits for those who would rather complete only part of the trail. On this route, you might even spot wildlife like squirrels, grouse, deer, bobcats, or even bears!  The White Twister trail is a local favorite and is located near the beautiful Tallulah Gorge. The trail is only four miles long but offers plenty of challenge and excitement at every turn. As the name suggests, this trail twists and turns through forested valleys. Be prepared for a rigorous and steep climb; you’ll ascend a total of 532 feet. It’s important to note that the White Twister is for experienced cyclists only!

Water activities

A great little state park on Lake Burton. Just 24 minutes from the cabin, this is a favorite spot for boating, paddling, fishing, hiking and more! There is a fish hatchery which is a super cool thing to see, especially for the kids, and they have kayak rentals as well. This is a great place to spend the day! If you prefer a beach access to the lake, nearbyTimpson's cove is where you want to be. https://explorerabun.com/timpson-cove-park-at-lake-burton/
