5 Reasons to Love The Rock Ranch
The Rock Ranch is only an hour drive from Atlanta, but it feels far removed, like visiting Granddad’s farm, but a whole lot more fun. Granddad may have had a corn silo, but he sure didn’t have a Tiny Town village, a jumping pillow, a carousel, a zip line or a rock wall – and so much more. Here are the Top 5 things to love about this 1,500-acre working ranch founded by the late S. Truett Cathy, who started Chick-fil-A.

1. Tiny Town
This miniature village with a church, bank, school, courthouse, jail, movie theater and more invites a game of “let’s pretend.” A hot day bonus: air conditioning.
2. Corn Silo
Step into the silo and play in the corn, just like farm kids have done for eons.
3. Train and Other Rides
To get to the farm from the parking lot, you board a tractor-pulled train. Once there, choose from a carousel, locomotive train, cow train, pedal karts, pedal boats, pony rides and more.
4. Festivals in Every Season
Spend saturdays enjoying the home-grown market and seasonal festivals year-round.
5. Plenty for Toddlers to Teens
Older kids love the zip line, rock climbing, rope maze, pedal karts and boats; younger kids delight in the jumping pillow, pipe slide, carousel and more. Plan to spend the whole day – even then, the kids will not be ready to leave.
