Fantasy in Lights at Calloway was a beautiful step back in time. We went December 4th with out…read morechurch group and had a great time together. Although raining, we were under cover most of our visit. We started off in Calloway's Christmas Village, which was a walk through collection of shops, offering Christmas decor, gifts, face painting, story time with Mrs Claus and hot cocoa and Donuts. Our group was scheduled for the light tour at 7pm and when we checked in, Calloway was able to take our group at 6pm. The light tour was a 7-mile, 10-million-light drive-through show. We went through the light show in the open cars driven by Calloway staff, but apparently visitors are welcome to drive their own vehicles through. It was a lot of fun - and my favorite lights were those of the beautiful swan from the twelve days of Christmas, and the tree next to the lake at the end of our drive. Simply beautiful! Anyone would like this who enjoys seeing Christmas lights, (who can also walk some distance) and who can be flexible when needed.

For the most this is the favorite family traditions for Christmas and New Year times seeing lights and enjoying. If you haven't given it a chance, you must go see the lights. We did the drive through because it was cold when we were there, but the trolley is a great experience also. Will try it next time for sure. Overall it was a good time and I highly recommend coming with family and friends. You drive about an hour slowly around the grounds and see so many lights that play with music. Afterwards, you park and can get out and explore a large area with festival food trucks, more lights in a walking path, glow mini golf, a giant projector playing rudolf the red nose reindeer, and a giant tent with areas to take cute photos, face painting, Christmas Tree with lights and shop for gifts. The smoke bubbles were so cool in foggy hallow. Great for kids. Would definitely come back next year. Callaway Gardens Fantasy In Lights has been ranked third on Forbes list of 7 Spectacular Christmas Light Displays That Offer Holiday Magic 2024. Recognized for its breathtaking displays, millions of twinkling lights, and festive charm, Fantasy In Lights continues to spread holiday joy and create unforgettable memories for all ages.

There must be thousands of butterflies inside! The center itself isn't huge, but honestly, it doesn't need to be. There are butterflies everywhere, flying all around you, and it makes the entire place feel almost magical. You can get extremely close to them, and there are so many different kinds to see. They also have turtles and a few other things to check out, which was a nice addition to the experience. My girlfriend absolutely loved it, so seeing how happy she was made the experience even better for me. It's a beautiful, relaxing, and unique attraction that doesn't take up your entire day but is definitely worth making time for. We had a great time and will absolutely visit again the next time we stay at Callaway Gardens Resort. Definitely add the Butterfly Center to your list while you're there!

Afterward, my fiancé and I walked around to take in the sights, and watched countless colors and sizes of butterflies flit around. It was magical. We definitely want to come back for more visits!

Atlanta Botanical Garden continues to be one of my favorite places in Atlanta to visit. It is…read moredefinitely one of my happy places. I love that it's located right in the city, yet you feel so far away. I also really appreciate the membership options they offer. I typically get the single membership, which is well worth it when you consider how many times you can visit and the member-only events they host. This time around, though, I decided to rejoin with an upgrade to the Family Membership ($135 for the year, which covers two adults and children). It comes with four free guest passes, discounts at the gift shop, and options for parking garage passes. They also host member only events, and for the month of September, members get a discount at the garden cafe and restaurant. In addition to seeing all the gorgeous flowers and trees, there is always something going on throughout the year. They host events featuring work by various artists and sculptors throughout the garden, a scarecrow event in the fall, the holiday lights in the winter, and an orchid exhibit in the spring. Another great perk is that your membership gets you discounts at other botanical gardens across the United States. If you love nature and enjoy visiting gardens wherever you travel, I definitely recommend taking advantage of their membership!

The gardens are beautifully maintained, with brick and asphalt paths that were easy on our pup's paws.

Our dog particularly enjoyed exploring the open areas and taking in all the new scents. The staff was welcoming and friendly towards dogs, which always makes for a more enjoyable experience. It's clear that Massee Lane Gardens embraces its pet-friendly policy, making it a truly relaxing and delightful outing for both humans and their canine companions. Just remember to keep your dog leashed and be a responsible pet parent by cleaning up after them. We highly recommend Massee Lane Gardens for a beautiful day out with your four-legged family member!
