Autumn may be heavy on our minds, but we know the Georgia heat is here to stay for a while. Make the most of it in Historic Downtown Acworth with our end of summer bucket list!
Picnic at the Park
Settle in at one of Acworth’s beautiful parks with a good book and a snack! Logan Farm Park offers a huge expanse of green space, perfect to lay out a blanket and spend the afternoon. Looking for the perfect book to bring along? The Crazy Book Lady is just down the street with a huge selection of new and used options.
“Gather Around the Good!”
Enjoy an evening out with friends or family at one of Acworth’s newest hot spots, Tap Town! This restaurant serves as the ultimate community gathering place, with an expansive outdoor area overlooking the Parkside District. When you’ve got no more room for seconds, head out for some shopping in Historic Downtown.
Sip on Seasonal Flavors
Nothing beats an iced latte on a hot late summer day, especially when you can sip it right by the calm waters of Lake Acworth! Stop by Cafe de Coco for one of their delicious, seasonal iced drinks with house-made syrups, or Crane’s Coffee for some unbeatable Cuban fusion, then take a stroll or a short drive to one of our lake-side parks to splash around or take in the views.
Pictures with Pollinators
If you haven’t seen the Acworth Community Garden yet this year, now is the perfect time! As the summer winds down, the plants and veggies are flourishing, and that means so are the pollinators. As the bees, birds, and butterflies flutter around you, walk along the hand-painted stepping-stones towards the vibrant Butterfly Mural and snap some Insta-worthy pics.
Savor a Scoop
Summer just isn’t complete without an afternoon trip for a scoop (or three) of your favorite flavors! Head downtown to Scoops Ice Cream shop with the whole crew, and relax on their shaded back deck (with perfect views of the sunset) or right out front along Main Street to watch the trains go by!
Visit the Farmers Market
While the Acworth Farmers Market continues on Fridays and Saturdays through November, there’s nothing quite like a summer morning shopping for your favorite farm-fresh goods in the Parkside District! Stroll along on your own, bring the family, or bring your pup. Either way, you’ll find a little something special for everyone.
