The United States has a wide variety of landscapes and sights for people to see when they take a family vacation during the summertime. If you’re not sure where to go this year, Mountain Aire Cottages & Inn, a vacation rental property in Clayton, GA, recommends heading to the Peach State. The northeastern area, in particular, has affordable lodgings, won’t be clogged with thousands of tourists, and offers a wide array of family-friendly activities. Here are a few of their top recommendations.

3 Must-See Places in Northeast Georgia

1. Tiger Mountain Vineyards

If you’re seeking an award-winning winery, look no further than Tiger Mountain Vineyards. All of their delicious wines are locally sourced from ingredients grown right in Rabun County, and they have a historic cafe on-site where you can grab a bite to eat and relax after tasting a flight of their hand-crafted wines. The tasting room is open from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and until 6 p.m. on Saturdays. Be sure to check their online calendar before you go to find out if any fun events will be happening while you’re there. 

2. Loudermilk Boarding House & Everything Elvis Museum

Are you looking to show the kids a piece of truly American history on your family vacation? Make sure you stop by the Loudermilk Boarding House. This historic home was built in 1908 and has a unique and quirky collection of Elvis memorabilia. Kids will love looking at the many items in the house, and parents will enjoy the nostalgic tribute to the King.

3. School Bus Graveyard

The residents of Alto weren’t content to have a bunch of rusty old school buses piling up in a junkyard. Instead, they turned the decommissioned vehicles into fascinating works of local art. The buses have been painted and repainted since 2012, so even if you’ve stopped by there before, you’re guaranteed to see new art on this trip. It’s a fantastic way to visit a unique site and support local artists.

Amid all of the sightseeing, you’ll need the perfect place to stay on your family vacation. Mountain Aire Cottages & Inn has a wide variety of options for everyone, from large groups enjoying a fun trip to individuals looking for a little peace and quiet. All of the cottages come completely furnished, and you’ll receive the same quality service you would at a five-star hotel.
