Question for Georgians (mainly for people in Atlanta/Marietta)

Question

My parents' anniversary is in about a week, and my dad was trying to figure out a good place to take my mom. What they are looking for is a "one day vacation." Does anyone know somewhere they could go besides the aquarium, the High museum, the coke factory, or the airport (haha sorry this ones a joke). Thank you.

Answer 1

I was going to suggest Marietta Sq & Glover Park also. It has good shopping (not just antiques), restaurants and theaters.

Answer 2

They could go see a show at the Fox theater, eat at Daily's (upstairs).  They could go to Atlantic Station to eat as well. There are so many things to do. Hope this helps...

Answer 3

Have them go to Chateau Elan in Braselton GA.  They will love it.  I stayed there with my wife for a weekend and had a wonderful and memorable time.

Answer 4

westin hotel is very romantic. its in downtown. they could spend a night there and then go to a nice dinner. thats where my parents spent their honeymoon

Answer 5

the georgian terrace hotel for dinner and a night cap i guess. this is  a four star hotel and it's really beautiful

Answer 6

They could go to Spa Sydell for the day.  Maybe go to Whitesburg, GA (out near Carrollton) they have a place called the Historic Banning Park Lodge with cute cabins and they also have hiking trails and zipline canopy tours.   They can have a nice dinner at the Sundail at the Westin Hotel downtown.  

Answer 7

Have you heard of Chateau Elan? It's a nice place up north that has a winery and a nice hotel. It's a great place for a getaway. Quiet and up in the mountains. It's nice romantic getaway. They have a website you can check out. chateauelan.com (I think.) Golfing, wine, spa, great food, lots of choices. I hope they enjoy their anniversary.

Answer 8

Stone Mountain would be a fun place to go if they want to be outdoors.  

Atlanta has a great botanical garden, which could create a romantic setting and they could follow it with dinner at Canoe which has great food and a beautiful outdoor view.  

Another fun place to go would be the Marietta square, especially if your parents are into Antiques.  There are great restaurants and great shops!
