As we continue to explore the areas in and around Athens & Watkinsville our next stop is Statham, Georgia. Situated in a prime location in Barrow County just off Atlanta Hwy. between Athens and Atlanta, Statham has retained its small town southern charm while being close to everything Athens and Oconee have to offer. Enjoy living in a quiet low-traffic area while being in close proximity to Hwy 316, which gives you access to most major interstates. For recreation, Fort Yargo State Park is only 15 minutes down the road. Visit Statham’s antique stores and grab a bite to eat at Savvy’s Cakes & Legendary Sandwiches or Edee’s BBQ Shack. Then take a stroll to see the many beautiful historic homes in the downtown area. Their annual Sunflower Festival features live music, arts and crafts vendors, and mouthwatering food stalls - a great opportunity to experience this town’s hospitality and camaraderie. It’s hard to believe that Atlanta is only a hour away!
