City/town information

Recently featured on HGTV, this little town has seen a boom in tourism and also features the Big Fish house. It's a beautiful city that sits on the banks of the Coosa River and is a great example of small town USA. Enjoy a brew by the river, some cheese and wine from Provisions, a custom hot dog from Grumpy Dog, or a deli sandwich from Copperhouse.
