Things to Do in Peachtree City, GA

1. All Children’s and Picnic Park

This adorable playground has an ideal setting behind the public library. With various play areas for kids of all ages and abilities, families can picnic by Lake Peachtree and play for hours. It is one of our favorite spots to stop before heading home in the evening. It is also a great place to view the fireworks on the Fourth of July and the Night Markets through the years.

There are many nature paths and areas around Peachtree City to explore with kids. 

2. Beaver Dam Park

Beaver Dam Park feels like one of those hidden gems only the locals know about. It's perfect for kids who need to burn off some energy or when you want to have a laid-back family picnic. We have spent many afternoons here enjoying a packed lunch.

Peachtree City's Village Green Disc Golf course is located next to the city library. 

3. Village Green Frisbee Golf

If you’re looking for something fun, simple, and outdoorsy, Village Green’s 9-hole disc golf course is a hit with all ages. You can borrow discs from the library or bring your own. Kids love running around and aiming for the baskets, and it's easy to walk the course with them.

4. Line Creek Nature Area

This is one of our favorite spots when we want to disconnect from the noise and reconnect with nature. With over 70 acres of trails, woods, and even a cool creek, Line Creek is where we go to slow down. Hike, sit by the water, and listen to the birds —it’s peaceful and good for the soul.

5. Cedar Hill Flower Farm

Cedar Hill Flower Farm is pure magic. Pick your own bouquet (kids love choosing their favorites), take beautiful family photos, and enjoy the breeze while walking through colorful rows of flowers.

10. The Fred Amphitheater

Check the Fred's calendar to see what concert/performance will be playing in the outdoor concert pavilion. One of the best summer memories we’ve made is dancing under the stars at The Fred. Enjoy tribute bands to comedy nights, and everything in between for a great family night.

11. Rent a Golf Cart

Honestly, the real Peachtree City experience is riding around in a golf cart! With over 100 miles of scenic paths, it’s how we get to parks, restaurants, and even school. There are several rental places (Big O’s, 3 Guys, Golf Rider, etc.) if you're visiting.

Mastermind Escape Games is such a fun pick, especially for older kids and teens! We’ve gone a few times for birthdays, rainy days, and even just a spontaneous weekend adventure, and it never disappoints.

14. Tiny Feet

Tiny Feet is a toddler zone and one of those rare places that feels like it was designed straight from a mom’s heart. Little tikes can run and play freely inside while you watch on, knowing your little one is safe.

15. Royal Lanes Social

Duckpin bowling was a total game changer for my kids. It’s like standard bowling's adorable little cousin but with smaller balls, shorter lanes, and no heavy lifting or finger holes to wrestle with.
