With all of life’s demands, sometimes you need a break from it all. When you and your girlfriends are ready to escape from the big city, make your getaway to the mountains of North Georgia, where you’ll find beautiful scenery, delicious restaurants, luxurious spas, elegant wineries, and the perfect North Georgia cabin rentals!
To help you plan the perfect getaway, we’ve built a guide to some of the best activities for your North Georgia girl’s trip!
Things To Do
Wineries
No girl’s weekend is complete without exploring the local wineries. Here are some of the best wineries in North Georgia that everyone in your group will love!
Cartecay Winery grows its grapes at a higher elevation with abundant loamy soil, providing the perfect growing conditions for spectacular wine grapes that can be turned into the finest of wines. On the weekends, you can enjoy live music from regional and local artists, admire the stunning mountain views, and sip on some of the best wine on the East Coast as you relax on the deck.
At Three Sisters Vineyard, enjoy the classic Georgia farm that has transformed into a modern winery without losing any of the charm—you can even bring your dog along! All of the delicious wines are made on-site and make for the perfect souvenir to bring home after your trip!
Go behind the scenes with a vineyard tour at Ellijay River Vineyard and tour nearly 20 acres of vines. After your tour, enjoy a refreshing glass of crisp wine while you admire the views overlooking the Ellijay River, which borders the property, and nearby mountains.
Owned and operated by a German family, Engelheim Winery won “2018 Georgia Winery of the Year” and the “Best Georgia Grown Wine” awards, cementing its place as one of the best wineries in North Georgia. It’s even pet and kid-friendly (remember that for next time when you come back to North Georgia with your family).
Quirky Bear Claw Vineyard breaks out of the stereotypical vineyard mold with live music on the weekend, delicious wine, and even a treehouse. The treehouse is located directly above the working vineyard, giving you a bird’s eye view of what goes into making wine.
Located in the heart of Georgia’s wine country, Chateau Meichtry is the perfect place to wrap up your tour for the day. Grab dinner or a late afternoon snack from one of the food trucks to pair with an amazing glass of wine while you listen to the live music!
Shopping in Downtown Blue Ridge & Ellijay
Another requirement for the perfect girl’s weekend is some great North Georgia shopping!
With a thriving artistic community, downtown Blue Ridge offers many unique items you won’t find anywhere else! Be sure to check out Ain’t What It Used to Be, which carries unique and useful designs made from repurposed items, all created by local artists. Allie Harper is a luxury boutique selling clothes, skincare products, and jewelry. And don’t forget April’s Attic, which offers an array of products all related to the early Americana and Blue Ridge mountain culture.
The shopping in downtown Ellijay is just as good as Blue Ridge. Make sure you check out Mountain Treasures, a unique store selling furniture, women’s clothing, local artwork, and candles. You can even sip on a glass of local wine as you shop. Next on your list should be the Loving Bull, which specializes in vintage clothing, jewelry, shoes, and more. And don’t miss Artful Ellijay, which offers home provisions ranging from the perfect vacation memory to full home makeovers.
