We left Tallahassee in the morning and headed north. it wasn’t long before we were in Georgia; we pulled in to the Visitor Center for a brief stop…
We continued on. For about 4 hours Georgia looked like this…
We arrived at Chattahoochee Hills by mid afternoon. We drove down this dirt road…
We ignored the Private Driveway signs and proceeded in, hoping we were in the right place and that we wouldn’t find a dead end…
But it was OK – we arrived at this large clearing with a lovely house and pool…
We parked the Villa off to the side and called our friends, who live nearby…
Our friends arrived and we walked about 1/2 mile to the village of Serenbe, more specifically, the hamlet of Selborne…
Serenbe was designed and developed along the lines of Neo-Traditional Town Planning similar to Seaside. Unlike Seaside, which is a holiday town, by the sea, Serenbe is a place meant for full-time living, on the outskirts of Atlanta. While Seaside is relatively dense and compact, all on 80 acres, Serenbe is hundreds of acres, with four hamlets separated by rolling open space.
It was delightful.
We met up with our friends and hung out at the pool for awhile. Dinner and wine was consumed, and we ended the day on the balcony, overlooking the streets below…
We were transported back to the Villa on their golf cart…
And an enjoyable time was had by all…
