Spring Things — Our Favorite Nearby Activities
Spring is here! Let’s celebrate the season with fun activities around Sterling on the Lake. Whether you’re exploring locally in Flowery Branch or venturing closer to Atlanta, there are countless spring events and activities to choose from.
Burford Spring Festival
This festive Spring event brings together local-area communities to enjoy food, shopping, giveaways and more. Located along Main Street in Historic Buford, you can check out different vendors or watch the Young Talent of Buford Competition — a local competition that includes stage performances by the area’s most talented youth. You can register for this free event here.
Little Mulberry Park
Just a short drive from Sterling on the Lake, Little Mulberry Park is the perfect place to enjoy Spring with the whole family. Pack a picnic or throw a Frisbee at this park that includes miles of hiking and equestrian trials, a playground, nature preserve, 18-hole golf course, pavilions, grills and more. You can cast out a line on the lake, or simply lay back and enjoy the peace and quiet of this pristine haven.
Atlanta Dogwood Festival
Feel like heading into the city? If so, do not miss the Atlanta Dogwood Festival, April 12-14. This 80-year-long running festival is steeped in tradition and features an artist’s market, exhibitions, an international stage and village, rides, food and more. And, for the 25th year in a row, the festival will host the Disc Dog Southern Nationals Qualifier Tournament. Here you can watch pups as they leap and catch their way to victory. The festival is great for kids and adults alike.
