Things to Do Near Atlanta During the International Tournament

With the world visiting Atlanta, visitors from around the globe and other cities in the U.S. can visit Barnsley Resort to explore North Georgia between matches at Atlanta Stadium. Just an hour north of Atlanta and south of Chattanooga, championship soccer visitors can escape the city’s crowds with a cottage stay, golf on the Fazio Course, horseback riding, relaxation at a resort pool, outdoor adventures like UTV rides and more.

Noted as one of the best new restaurants in North Georgia, signature dining at Jules by Chef Shaun Doty is a must do during a visit to Atlanta. Planning to escape the crowds but still want to tune into the global tournament? The casual, open-air Biergarten in the center of the village is the place to tune into the action while enjoying Executive Chef Marc Suennemann’s traditional German favorites paired with classic Southern barbeque, fresh from the J&R Smoker.

Even with just the chance to escape the city for one day, Barnsley Resort pool passes are available on Resort Pass with the option to choose the Relaxation Pool, a haven for adults ages 21 & over, or the family friendly Lazy River pool with enhanced recreational amenities. The Merger putting course and six lighted pickleball courts created even more summer fun near Atlanta and Chattanooga.
