Nice place to chill out.
Located in Walker County, the Villanow General Store is the oldest continuously operated general store in the state of Georgia. The brick structure is adorned with many clues to the past. The store withstood the Civil War and General William T. Sherman's march to the sea. The Villanow Country Store is on the National List of Historic Places under the name of Cavender's Country Store. According to the documentation of the National List of Historic Places it was built around the year of 1840 and was probably built by Joseph Warren Cavender, who of all of it owners over the years, owned it longest. It holds the record in the State of Georgia as the longest operating stand alone country store in the entire state.
Definitely worth going to the Pocket loop falls after a big rainfall.. bring your hammocks!

We had a great stay at The Hotel Chalet in one of the train car rooms. It was really cool and I highly recommend - reminded me of how it must have felt to be riding across the British Empire in a dedicated train car. Everything was also very clean and in good order.

I’ll never stay at Key West Inn hotel again

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

The locals are very friendly and courteous. I come here to work twice a year. There are nice historic places to visit nearby. Can’t really say it’s the kind of place I’d visit by choice, but then again, can’t say the place isn’t nice either.

3/5 - Okay

LaFayette didn’t have much to see but it is close to many things. In town for a weddding so location was perfect. Close enough to drive to Chattanooga.

LaFayette is a quiet, peaceful little town. It appears to be lovely.
