Southern Living magazine has released its list of 16 Things to do in Gainesville.
“Situated in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Gainesville, Georgia, is known for lush green spaces, an expansive lake, and quaint university-town culture,” the magazine says in introducing our town to its readers.

Interior designer Maggie Griffin makes her home in Gainesville and says, ‘Gainesville is what we call our big small town’.”
