In the charming town of Sautee Nacoochee, Georgia, there is an old general store that allows you to step back in time as soon as you walk through the doors. Not only does the store carry some general store staples like candy and cheese, but they also showcase unique antiques and interesting souvenirs. Have a look at why this old general store in Georgia has such a fascinating history.
Old Sautee General Store has been serving the public since 1872.
Nestled in the mountains of North Georgia, Old Sautee Store once supplied the Sautee Valley community with store staples such as seed, eggs, flour, hardware, animal feed, and butter.
Today, however, people from all walks of life stop by to peruse the historic general store, and pick up unique gifts such as homemade peach preserves, pickled garlic, old time soda, or even fresh bread.
What’s so unique about this space is that you can take a trip back in time by venturing through the old items hanging from shelves like tools and historic crafts.
