We are always on the lookout for fun ideas for activities and trips in the region. A secret gem that is only a few minutes from Auburn in Pine Mountain, GA is Callaway Gardens Resort. We’ve decided to load up the kids and head down for a week of summer fun. They have several different packages, but we’re going to try the Summer Family Adventure since it focuses on fun for the entire family. We’ll report back with details on our adventure in June!
Here’s what we have to look forward to, with my “take” on it in bold:
A Private two-bedroom Cottage: SO crucial for having time to relax after the kids hit the hay.
A Day Camp for the kids, where they will do arts/crafts, swim, mini golf, circus activities, and other outdoor adventures. (ages 3 to 18) If my kids are in day camp, what ever will I do with my free time?? POOL. SPA.
Access to rounds of golf on Callaway Gardens’ award-winning golf courses: I’ll try not to get all “Happy Gilmore” on Angie!
Exercise classes, tennis, fishing and even circus skills: I wanted to join the circus when I was younger… a dream fulfilled!?!
Workshops and classes to learn more about photography, painting, drawing, gardening and nature: all the things I don’t currently have time for!
Evening family fun with bingo, beach activities, marshmallow roasts, miniature golf, bike rides, star gazing and more: I LOVE BINGO. It’s the one time when the elderly get no respect from me.
NEW Callaway Gardens TreeTop Adventure featuring aerial challenges for all ages and a NEW Farmers Market featuring locally, regionally available food, flowers and more: I will fly through the air and then buy fresh tomatoes for my BLT’s, what more could I want?
Have you been to Callaway Gardens? What do you suggest we put on our list of “Must Do’s” while we’re there?
Make sure to watch our Blog on al.com, we’ll be journaling our adventures there throughout the week!
