Big Creek Greenway
fowler's got baseball fields, grassy patches, a playground, and a huge shaded dog park. a little something for everyone!
Fowler Park
the hike up to indian seats is pretty steep, but not long and it's breathtakingly beautiful
Sawnee Mountain Preserve
a bit out of the way but gibbs gardens is beautiful when the flowers are in bloom. they have so much stuff to look at
Gibbs Gardens
if you can brave the lady of the lake, this is a good pick. it's also really close to margaritaville!!
Lake Lanier

Forsyth County Arts and Learning Center
lots of good shows here, and it's literally on the same block as tam's backstage
School Street Playhouse
the collection has a bunch of shops, restaurants, and other fun spots, as well as a movie theater. this is a super common place to go to hang out on the weekend
The Collection at Forsyth
similar to the collection, but much more focused on food and entertainment. this is a friday night spot, and prices are a bit higher
