Testimonials

Visitors to Alpharetta

“We have been to concerts, fishing, beaches, BBQs, ride bicycles (didn’t do that in CO), walk several times a day and love the drives in the areas surrounding us….The most interesting experiences have been with meeting the natives, and there have been quite a few.  They love their community and are thrilled when others love their community just as much.  I always like to tell them ‘Thanks for taking good care of the place until we could get here.'”

“We went to the concert at the Ameris Bank  and it was awesome. But, I just wanted to tell you your town is beautiful and everyone was so nice. We stayed at the Hyatt suites and everything was wonderful. We could not have asked for a more peaceful or wonderful trip. The amphitheater is one of the most wonderful places that I have ever seen a concert. Hat’s off to you and your community.”
