New this year is Cowtown – featuring a real cow with a milking station for the kids. According to the Georgia Mountain Fairgrounds, Cowtown will be ” a live exhibit which contains an old time creamery where patrons participate in preparing a cow for milking by hand. Kids get hands-on experiences with the process of making butter ice cream and soap using historic tools and machines in these processes, and they learn the concept of “Home Made” just the way grandma used to do it!”
There will be food and hot chocolate on site for purchase as well and Christmas music is provided by local area churches. Pets are NOT allowed.
Traveling from out of town? No problem, we have a host of beautiful lodging options available for your Christmas vacation! The Georgia Mountain Fairgrounds are located in beautiful Hiawassee, Georgia at 1311 Music Hall Road.
