http://thevillasatcoosawattee.com/amenities.htmThe surrounding area outside of the resort is also chock-full of adventure:
* Build an Ark right outside of The Villas at Coosawattee’
s
Eagle Mountain gate is a barn bustling with a menagerie of rescued
animals. Everyone will get a kick out of the critters and their tour of
the ark.
* Just a short drive from the resort is Cherokee
Valley Ranch where tubing, tobogganing, horseback riding, zip-lines, and
waterfall hayrides are featured on the majestic ranch. The fast and
exciting tubing and tobogganing is on year-round dry “snow” and the
horseback riding is suitable for all experience levels. And the hayride
tours the ranch, culminating in a fireside cowboy lunch or dinner at a
secluded campsite.
* A day at The Alley Family Bowling Center
will have the kids bowling, bouncing on inflatables, and playing laser
tag. The center has a snack bar, Build-a-Bear store, and arcade games
too.
* Need some more family fun? Gilmer Golf and Games
offers a challenging game of miniature golf over moguls, between rocks,
and through water hazards. Waterfalls, rushing streams, and goldfish
ponds accent the course. Take a whirl in the batting cages too.
If relaxation is more your speed, check out these attractions:
* Golfing in North Georgia is ever popular at Whitepath Golf Course.
Whitepath offers breathtaking scenery from elevated tees overlooking 18
lush fairways and medium-sized greens. A trout stream and four lakes
come into play, and abundant wildlife including deer, quail and turkey
can be observed throughout the course.
* Or perhaps an
afternoon of live music and wine tasting is more your preference.
Cartecay Vineyards features The Tasting Barn which is a refurbished
circa 1890s barn and sits on the same site as when it was first
constructed. The vineyards are open Thursday through Sunday with live
performances to compliment their good wine.
* And a trip to
the day spa is wonderfully restful and rejuvenating option. Spectra Hair
