Where the “Metro Meets the Mountains” , Canton is well-known for it’s fabulous sunsets and mountainous views. But, there is much more to this popular Cherokee County city then meets the eye.
Some interesting places in or near Canton, include the Hickory Log Creek Reservoir, covering more than 395 acres and has almost 15 miles of shoreline to enjoy. The lake is of special interest to anglers since it was stocked with bream, catfish, and bass among other species and reservoir is also known as a favorite spot for canoers and kayakers, who are free to paddle across the waters to discover all its hidden corners.
History abounds in Canton and one great example is the Cherokee County Courthouse. This historic courthouse was built in 1928 of grey-white stone. Listed on the US’ National Register of Historic Places since 1981, it replaced an early structure destroyed by fire. In addition to its history as a historic courthouse and jail, this building is also the home of a museum to the history of Canton and Cherokee County.
The Canton Theater is situated in downtown Canton, and has been in operation on and off for more than one hundred years. When it first opened, the theatre put on silent movies, and took on its art deco appearance after a redevelopment in the late 1930s. Now a not-for-profit community enterprise, its auditorium hosts plays, musicals, concerts and pretty much any other form of performance you care to name.
Chattahoochee National Forest is a protected area within Georgia’s portion of the Blue Ridge Mountains, around 45 minutes north of Canton.
In total, the forest covers more than 186 miles of land, meaning there’s plenty of space here to explore and enjoy the landscapes and blue-tinted trees which give the range their name.
