Up the Road
Tucked away in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Northwest Georgia lies Barnsley Resort, a 3,000-acre getaway where nature, history and hospitality come together as one. Just over a three-hour drive from Williamson county, this resort-meets-village playground offers cozy accommodations, elevated Southern cuisine – (with hospitality to match) – and on-site adventure for days. Once checked in, it’s time to roll your sleeves up and let the adventures begin. Practice your golf swing at the 18-hole Jim Fazio golf course and Golf Performance Center with state-of-the-art Trackman technology or saddle up for a horseback ride through the mountains with guided trail rides. Corral rides and animal canvas finger-painting sessions are available for the youngsters.
Beretta Shooting Grounds A trip to Barnsley Resort isn’t complete without some time at the Beretta Shooting Grounds. This experience specializes in both wingshooting and sporting clays, with guided lessons available for guests at all levels from novices to pros. Start on the covered five-stand to get familiar with the sport, then show off your skills at either the two 14-station clays shooting courses, all with state-ofthe-art Promatic machines and wireless card counting systems. If quail hunting piques your interest, head over to the wingshooting grounds for the thrill of a lifetime from October through March.
