Why choose Covington, GA?

Covington, GA, is located 35 miles southeast of Atlanta and is sometimes called the Hollywood of the South and has been in more than 140 TV shows and films. The town marks the day in Rockwellian fashion, with homes dressed in tricolor bunting and the annual Independence in the Park festival bringing everyone together on Covington Square for live music and old-fashion family fun. Nowhere will you find this Mayberry-reminiscent sense of community more apparent than on Covington Square, a gathering spot that acts as the town's front porch. Anchored in one corner by the Historic Newton County Courthouse and in another by Johnston's bakery, the heart of downtown is home to many restaurants and shops.

Covington, GA, is also known for their fantastic restaurants. Visit the Town House Café is a homey establishment just off the square that's been in the same family for three generations. Enjoy a rooftop lunch at Mystic Grill, so named for the fictional eatery in The Vampire Diaries. On your way up, check out the restaurant's wall of fame, which features photos of the grill's well-known patrons. Explore an old railbed turned pathway, Cricket Frog Trail, that meanders 4 miles through town and extends another 11 miles into the county. Test your luck fishing at Turner Lake Park or catch a free concert with the family at Legion Field. Make the short drive to Mitcham Farm to pick some berries and then peruse their selection of more Georgia-grown goods. There is something for everyone here.
