Crane Creek Vineyards
Crane Creek Vineyards sits in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Georgia, about three miles north of Young Harris and in the shadow of Brasstown Bald. The family-owned vineyard offers two on-site experiences: the Stone House Tasting Room, with sweeping vineyard and mountain views and a large patio, and The Farmhouse Coffee & Wine Bar, a cozy hybrid space in the historic Bryson Farmhouse (circa 1886) with wine, coffee, snacks, and a designated picnic area. Winter hours vary by location; live music, food trucks, and Yappy Hour add to the calendar. This winery is in Young Harris; ask the team about a dedicated regional itinerary before choosing your stops.
