The architect who designed the courthouse, Alexander Blair, also designed The Opera House in Macon, GA. The Classic Revival architectural style of the building is impressive and majestic, taking center stage in the quaint small town square setting. Blair designed six courthouses in Georgia, four of which are on the NRHP list. From the front lawn, you have a view of the main street businesses offering the best of small town dining options and shopping opportunities only footsteps away. (True Blue Market, Bonzell’s Boutique, La Cabana and Fuzzy’s Restaurants ).
Walking in for a tour of this magnificent structure is an invitation to step back in time. Original balcony, benches and mantels …… beadboard wainscoting around the room and a ceiling of pressed metal divided into nine recessed squares are just a few of the breathtaking reminders of times gone by.

Whether you are just passing through or one of the local yokals, grab a to-go meal from the local business. Then, come enjoy the peaceful setting of small town life at the picnic tables in the courtyard of the square.
