Wish I wasn't here 1.5 rating By Anonymous ( Feb 23, 2020) Trails have lots of trash. No sidewalks on major streets going into Downtown Acworth. People are very unfriendly.

Beautiful Days On The lake In Acworth 3.5 rating By Anonymous ( May 10, 2018) Georgia has a lot of beautiful cities, but Acworth is a lake community that shines as a gem in the South.

Acworth, Georgia wraps around Lake Acworth, a tri-pronged lake north of Atlanta. The lakefront is beautiful and delivers a cool break from the Georgia heat when summer is in ...Read More full swing.

Every day in Acworth is a beauty. Whether you're looking across the sparkling waters and listening to the lake breeze in the trees or strolling through the resplendent city, every glance is a reminder that you're in one of the most beautifully Southern cities around.

The commute to Atlanta isn't bad. Marietta is an easier neighboring city, living in Acworth, GA gives you that beautiful lake with just a 45-minute commute in usual traffic. Marietta is 25 minutes, and Alpharetta is just as far as going to Atlanta.

The best areas in Acworth, GA are the lake (of course), and the restaurants along Main Street and Nance Road. These two paths tie together and act as a loop, giving you a good look at Acworth's cuisine without having to meander too far. Read Less
