The Cottage Vineyard & Winery
The Cottage Vineyard & Winery offers a welcoming, cottage-style setting in North Georgia wine country, in Cleveland just off US-129. Open seven days a week, the property emphasizes a relaxed atmosphere and estate-focused wines.
Events like Sip n Paint (e.g. stained-glass style painting classes) and a wine club add to the experience, making it a good fit for private tours that want a mix of scenery and hospitality. Hours are distinctive: Monday–Friday 10:55am–6:02pm, Saturday until 9:02pm, Sunday from 12:30pm. No reservation is required for tastings; the cottage vibe and extended Saturday hours suit groups looking for a relaxed stop that can stretch into evening. Pair The Cottage with Cavender Creek or Accent Cellars for a day that balances casual tastings and scenery. We coordinate with your other chosen wineries so the route and pacing stay smooth.
