Our area
Northwest Georgia
Southern hospitality, natural beauty and a sense of community make northwest Georgia the kind of place where people love to stop and stay – a small-town feel with easy access to several metro areas. You can go hiking one day, take in a play the next and then easily drive to Atlanta or Chattanooga for a change of pace.
The Coosa Valley region sits in the middle of a triangle formed by Atlanta, Chattanooga, Tennessee, and Birmingham, Alabama.
Cartersville
Just a short drive north of Atlanta, Cartersville is a gateway between the vibrant Atlanta metro area and the north Georgia mountains with convenient access from Interstate 75. With activities as varied as the people who call this community home, there is something for everyone.
Cartersville is home to Smithsonian Affiliate museums and National Register Historic District that make history come alive at Booth Western Art Museum, Tellus Science Museum, Etowah Indian Mounds State Historic Site, and more.
The beautiful, and award-winning Barnsley Resort is a destination for golfers, marksmen, and historians alike. For outdoor enthusiasts Lake Allatoona and Red Top Mountain State Park are located in Bartow county, as well. New to the area, is LakePoint Sporting Community – staged to become the world’s most comprehensive sports tournament vacation destination. Currently home to Terminus Wake Park, Perfect Game Baseball, Rally Volleyball, soccer, and lacrosse.
Cartersville’s public school systems, private schools, and the colleges in our community all work together for the betterment of the area as a whole and are giving our students the resources they need to be successful.
Rome, Georgia
Residents from our service area covering six counties in northwest Georgia and northeast Alabama come to Rome, Georgia to see family medicine providers and medical specialists who base their practices here.
Located in Floyd County, Rome is centrally positioned between the southern metropolitan cities of Atlanta, Chattanooga and Birmingham. The Coosa Valley Region has gained national acclaim for its climate, recreational activities, culture, economics, education, health care, housing, public safety, transportation and urban proximity.
The region's Southern hospitality, natural beauty and sense of community make it the kind of place where people love to stop and stay – a perfect-sized place with a small-town feel and big-city amenities.
Rome has a strong arts community, a passion for history, and a love for the three rivers winding through the heart of the city. The arts flourish in live community theatre groups, such as the Rome Shakespeare Festival and musical offerings such as the Rome Symphony Orchestra (founded by a member of the Harbin family nearly a century ago), and the Rome International Film Festival.
For those who enjoy an active lifestyle, there is much to relish here. For sports fans, family nights at the ballpark cheering on the minor league Rome Braves (2016 South Atlantic League Champions) are fun-filled and convenient. Exciting, running, biking, and paddling events throughout the year take locals on beautiful trail systems winding along rivers and spacious parks in historic downtown areas. Scattered throughout the region are hiking trails, caves, and mountains to explore and mighty rivers perfect for canoeing and kayaking.
Educational opportunities in Northwest Georgia include strong public and private schools such as Darlington School, one of the leading day and boarding schools in the Southeast, and cheering on youth and high school sports teams such as the Rome Wolves football team (2016 Region 5A State Champions) is an unforgettable experience. Our colleges and universities include Berry College, chosen as one of the “Smartest Liberal Arts Colleges in the World” by Business Insider.
