Things to Do in Demorest
The anchors of a local week: squares, markets, racing, and the lake. These are the calls locals actually make.
Back to the Demorest guide 01
Piedmont University
The south side of town
The 1897-founded campus: open lawns, the historic buildings, the Johnny Mize athletic center, and the town's biggest cultural engine.
02
Demorest Springs Park
Georgia Street
Walking paths, the spring setting, the playground, and the July 4th festival that has run for generations.
03
Downtown Demorest
Georgia Street
A walkable block of storefronts, the coffee counter, the bistro, and the small-town pace.
04
The mountain gateway
US-441 north and the foothills roads
Helen is fifteen minutes up the road, Tallulah Gorge a half hour, and the Blue Ridge foothills start at the city limit.
