Incredible art exhibit. My family found this not so secret little spot and were blown away at how incredibly the exhibits look picture do not do the place Justice you have to go all the Castles are beautiful and the nature trail loop each is a short but highly enjoy hike thuru nature. Cant recommend this place enough for a quick adventure with the family.

A cute godly place , Fairy garden. Gorgeous flowers. Silent and tranquil. Nice meadow to spend the evening. A small wood trail to go on a evening stroll along the Creek is awesome. The miniature structures are thorough with many intricate detailed work using glass beads, pebbles, shells and such, oh and also mini porcelain figurines trying to mimic scenes inside the castles and village. Notre Dame cathedral is beautiful. A pleasant place to spend a quite evening.

Such a fairytale like place! Beautiful and peaceful. All the details on rock castles are amazing. The trail is also very nice!

This place was really neat! There are tables so you can have a picnic and there is a swing for photo ops! It seems to be very popular.

Very nice spot. Love the tiny buildings and rocks with things about God on them. Even has some picnic tables. Nice trail to walk on too.

Absolutely fabulous...those who worked on this garden did a wonderful job...makes me want to go home and build something in my garden...Thank You for a wonderful experience...

It was amazing place to visit . Kids and we had a blast and also went to a nice little trail

This is a peaceful and cool place. Totally worth the drive from metro Atlanta. The rock castles are so neat and they sit along a meadow so it adds to the scenery.

This place has a whole lot of history recreated by the kids from this church. The river on the property adds more value to the rock garden by making it more peaceful and relaxing. Hope this place keeps growing with other biblical locations and trails for people to enjoy walking or sitting or just to escape from everyday stress from work and school.

Great place to come and enjoy nature. Its free and a nice place to bring the kids to enjoy the handmade castles. Such a lovely place and very interesting.

One of the most beautiful hidden gems Ive ever seen. The love that has gone into this place leaves you speechless and filled with awe. I had the place to myself during a weekday morning and it was so peaceful. I kinda dont want people to know about it but it needs to be experienced. Bring a picnic.

We took a trip here for my daughters birthday! What a lovely and majestic experience! Such beautiful works of art!

This is amazing, definitely take 30 minutes out of your day to visit here, look through all the rock creations, great place to show the kids, also very biblical!!!

It’s a must visit!!!! I can’t wait to go back, there was so much to see, I know I missed some! Absolutely gorgeous place and so peaceful. I love all the little details and beautiful flowers.

This is the most awesome experience. A walk through at your own pace. This peaceful garden is a great way to spend an afternoon or an early morning outing.

Beautiful place to find all the wonders the people have built. A most. While you are at it, say a prayer.

Its a cute little collection of intricate stonework. Very photographer happy. But that hike!! Bring comfy shoes and leave the stroller at home!!!

Its quaint. Its free. Its not a Biltmore, but we enjoyed it.

What a cool little thing to see... not top 50 of bucket list things to do, but definitely in the top 250. What a pains-taking effort by some very creative folks.

Great place to enjoy intricate and detailed craftsmanship of stonework.Very nice relaxing park with lots of picnic tables.

Very nice & cute place! Really enjoyed all the different sculptures. I was so glad to see an area dedicated for quiet time, prayer & meditation. Creek and trail was a bonus! Definitely recommend going.

Really awesome thing to do. We went through it kind of quickly, wish we had walked more slowly. So many near things to see and I found out later that they have a swimming hole. This is too cool

Small and quiet place, belongs to church. All castles are famous landmarks, look impressing, worth a picture. You can look inside Notre Dame cathedral and make some awesome pictures as it has mosaic on the windows and tile on the floor, so realistic

Amazing, what has been created from rocks, stones and glass is nothing short of AMAZING!

Great day trip spot. Parking was plentiful on a busy day and there are Porta Potties at the location.

Absolutely gorgeous place! I love coming here to pray & be at peace. Such a blessing to be able to come by anytime and see this place!

This garden place is so nice & beautiful. The castles, villages, houses and bridges are made and built from rocks and stained glass. Very creative and beautiful, Love it!

Awesome work. We were limited on time but we will be back. Wonderful upkeep too!

Stunning! Photos do not do it justice!

So much love and detail put into this place!

This little majestic place was a wonderful adventure! So Grateful for this find!

The rock sculptures are really amazing and intricate, with a lot of detail. This is a very cool place for everyone to stop and enjoy.

This was something we almost skipped but it is incredible . This is one you have to see. There is a picnic area there also. The rock garden is a collection of villages, castles, churches and other buildings. They are any where from 12 inches tall to 6 feet tall. The detail is amazing. This is one that pictures just dont do it justice

Very unique place, my whole family loves it. It is not a big place, we spent a little over an hour exploring the whole place including the 1mile trail, which I would recommend.

I like the fact it is a very beautiful place and have a good hiking trail what I didnt like about it is it has porta potties and they are hidden and you couldnt find them and they werent very well kept up

Great concept! Very serene garden with picnic area and a walking trail. Messages throughout walking paths. Flowers are gorgeous. Take your time and enjoy

This place was so beautiful to visit. My girls loved it.

What a special place. I wish i could have spent the whole day. And to know youth (with guidance) created this.Not much for the conventional church stuff myself and that is what makes this place so wonderful. I felt the love and effort. Thank you so much. If you visit with children, which you should, make sure they behave and do not tear down what is created.

Very interesting place! It amazed 2 yr old Addie and 62 yr old Poppa. Well worth the stop.

Very cool! Im so glad we stopped by here, it was great to see all this hard work and creativity on display. It may look like something simple, but there are some very intricate elements in some of these pieces.

We always enjoy our visits here.. The rock garden is a very unique place.

A really cool place to visit for children and adults. There are many very intricate and detailed miniature churches, buildings, bridges, and even the Roman Colosseum, made from colorful stones. Amazing work from the artists, this place is manned and maintained by volunteers. A cool place for photo ops, and there are quite a few structures to view. Free admission!

This is such a neat place! All the kids had a wonderful time checking out all the castles, churches, and little towns. Make sure you venture down the trial to discover the creek. Its beautiful. Will definitely visit again.

Great place to meditate and spend time in Gods word or just chill. Very serene.

Pretty cool for what it is. And its free though donations are appreciated. My wife and I drove an hour to see it and were a little underwhelmed but that is our fault not theirs.

We absolutely loved it. We took our 4 year old grandson and it was so enjoyable. We took a picnic. Very pleasant.

Was pleasantly surprised to find a beautiful and well maintained forest loop trail in addition to the many whimsical rock mini buildings.

Its one of the most beautiful & peaceful place I have ever been! Everything is handmade and beautiful and just amazing!!My 3 yr old grandson loved it!!!

Really neat place to explore and take your family.

Great little spot to visit. Parking is free. The tour is at your leisure, but can be completed in under an hour. The garden is located behind the Seven Day Adventist church. There are several areas for picnics and to lounge. There is also a wooded area for picnics and a short walking trail.The downside...there is not a public restroom available, so be sure your bladder is empty prior to the visit.

So beautiful. A hidden gem

Beautiful and peaceful spot to stop and have a picnic while enjoying the amazing little rock garden. Can enjoy a quick walk through stop here or spend a few hours meditating and enjoying the amazing energy here. And its free to walk around and enjoy, which is great for a little pit stop.

Very neat little place! Didnt expect to find something like this so close by. Lots of care and talent went into crafting these little wonders. Neat little hiking trail nearby too, however its easy to miss. They are still working on it and I look forward to seeing what else is added!

Beautiful place full of creativity and peace. Grateful for all the work put into it. Our girls love visiting and ask to stop when we are close. The stream/creek behind it is a fun attraction to the stone village. The girls see fish, turtles and snakes nearly each time we are able to visit. CalhounSDAChurch has obviously put a lot of time and effort into keeping it beautiful.

A hidden gem! The structures are amazing . There are picnic tables and a nature path that is kind of steep but so much fun.They depend on donations to keep the area maintained, so PLEASE be generous as it is a must see!

Great place to go dont miss it..

Very cute and fun for the little loves in your life. My grandson (4yrs) really enjoyed it! My 10 yr old granddaughter enjoyed it too, but not quite as excited.

Delightful Garden. Small but interesting. Located behind a church. Takes about 20 minutes to see it all, but they do have a hiking trail.

Amazing rock and shell creations!

Interesting little place. Also has a 1 mile hike if youre into that sort of thing

Great, free place! So much work, thought, and time went into building it. The attention to detail is amazing! If you just want to see something awesome, or bring the grandkids!

That is a very very beautiful place I recommend everybody go see the rock garden so much talent and work put into this simply amazing

The garden is really unique and worth the visit. It is a hidden gem, Not really a place for small children as they tend to run the paths and pull on the structures. Great experience for adults and youth maybe 10-12 years and up.

Great folk art environment, definitely looks to be influenced by the Ave Maria grotto.

It was good to visit a place that has Biblical significance.

Wonderful place to have a picnic. Theres a little trail into the woods right off the Rock Garden area and plenty of open space. Its right in front of a church and has a large parking area.No bathrooms on site. Gas station right down the road though. There are various tables where people can set up a little picnic.

This place is a must see. A true work of art and labor of love. Very calm and peaceful right off of a creek, but the day I went the creek was pretty high and some walkways were not accessible. Amazing place to take photos but stay to walkways and be respectful of these fragile pieces. There is plenty of parking, not needed as I had place to myself. Also there are trails but I opted out on the rainy day...oh picnic tables and portapotty on site!!

We had so much fun looking at the little structures. We were really impressed.

The place is calm & serene. Definitely gives the vibe of ancient Rome architecture. The artist has done some amazing job here. Excuse the beaver dam thats under construction. A good place to spend some own time.

Great really cute would visit again and bring more people to see!

Unbelievably serene. Great place to visit.

I would only go again if I have other places to visit there.

Personally know the builders....its an awsome place and a phenomenal work of art...definently a must see...

Awesome place lived here 30 years and have never seen it. It is awesome

Beautiful little place.

Beautiful! A lot of love went into building this rock garden.

One of the most beautiful, magical places Ive ever seen. Free, but please leave a donation. Its well worth it!

Had a really great time with my wife & my parents. It’s amazing how everything was made out of rocks the way it was. Really interesting designs & creative how it was all set on a walking path. The coliseum was huge! If you are passing by Calhoun, Rock Garden is worth the visit.

It is a nice place to take your family or pets and walked around.

This place is so beautiful and serene. Great for a picnic, with several tables and chairs under the trees, in the shade!

I love it its a great place to see beautiful artwork and see beautiful stones

This is a delight. Beautiful castles and villages made out of stones by hand! Cinderellas Castle, The Notre Dame, a Japanese Castle and the Coliseum are just a few represented here. Theres a path though the woods also thats not well marked, but worth the hike.

Quite tranquil place to relax, meditate, pray, and enjoy nature and art.

Such a fun and unique place.

Beautiful place with a walking trail around the trees and the little decorations are beautiful.

If your in Chattanooga Or Calhoun area this is right off of I75 and worth going to. Its very fun for the kids to see the rock formation plus they have hiking trails as well.

What a neat place! Everything is made of rocks and is amazing! We drove 2 hours to get to it and it was worth it! The garden is filled with plants and intricate minature buildings. Give it a visit!

There are tiny farm houses, castles and churches The figures are about two inches tall. Our grandchildren had a great time. We loved being there.

Its the perfect place to spend the morning with family in Gods beauty!

This hidden gem is the perfect day trip for anybody young old and in between. The intricate extraordinary buildings are scattered among winding handmade paths set in a lush tenderly nurtured garden. Spend hours marveling at the beautiful mind boggling creations. Have a picnic at one of the many scenic tables. Take a short mile hike through the woods on the loop trail.Bring some water shoes and wade in the lovely creek! But do watch carefully for snakes when in the creek. We saw 3 baby non-venemous brown water snakes bathing on the banks.Persons with physical disabilities esp those in wheelchairs will unfortunately find the paths impossible to difficult. Strollers likewise are untenable. Port-a-potties are mentioned in signs but we saw none. Dont think the church bathrooms are an option but not sure. During CoVid this was a good outdoor activity and we were able to keep our distance from others as needed, but there was a constant flow of visitors and we even went on a weekday. Most visitors wore masks.Our kids had such a fantastic time.

Beautiful castles place great talents displayed.

Great experience, walking through Rock Garden is more like literally walking the streets of Jerusalem. Serene environment, nice guide and beautiful prayer room.

Super cool, back of a church, well worth the visit.

Passion and love exhibited in this beautiful garden! A great work of art by man... and Gods handywork is seen throughout

What a neat place to walk around and explore. The creativity and artistry is amazing. Thank yuh!

A clean, quiet park that is perfect for a peaceful meditation, a walk with the family, or a nice place to sit and talk with a date. The sculptures are fun to look at and it doesnt take long to look at everything. Sitting on the esge of a stream, the green grass and flowers provide a great atmosphere. Porta potty on site, ample parking.

Absolutely amazing. Just make sure you bring something to drink in August. Lol

Oh my gosh. Its absolutely beautiful. Its a very nice place to just sit an relax and enjoy sculpture.

Very nice little place. You feel like a giant walking around a city made of pebbles. Very, very creative. Loved it! Hard to find behind the church. Trust your GPS

A beautiful little gem filled with whimsical rock and pebble creations. You will see miniature houses, buildings, castles, and even the colosseum! A wonderful place to visit, highly recommended!
