Wonderful Cherokee historic site! Loved the little museum and the movie. The outdoor walk and exhibits were wonderful too. I am part Cherokee Indian and I love learning about the culture of my kinspeople. So sad what happened on the infamous Trail of Tears. The movie is very moving about the suffering the Cherokees endured on the Trail of Tears. I would definitely recommend doing this! You won't be sorry you did. Especially if you're interested in Cherokee history or even heritage.

We came on earth day to tend the garden. With two little girls aged 3 and 6, I'm sure we were a distraction to the gardening group but they happily accommodated us. The park rangers were also very nice to the girls and wanted them to come back again in the future.

The grounds are very clean and well kept, and the council houses are set up with period artifacts. Learning about the Cherokee nation was educational for our whole family.

Overall it was a great visit for all of us. We plan on returning.

My grandson expressed an interest in American history. I felt compelled to capitalize on the opportunity. I carried him to as many historical sites as we could get to in five days. I figured he would get tired quickly and complain. He did not. He willingly participated everywhere we went. I would have been remiss to have excluded any part of our history, even the ugly parts. We went to New Echota to learn the truth about our native Americans and how they were mistreated and abused by the immigrants from Europe and Asia. New Echota Historical Site is a place that needed to be and needs to be preserved for our future generations and for the sanctity of this country and the lessons we must learn from past mistakes.

Beautiful and sad at the same time. The GA State Parks employees do a great job of preserving this important part of American history. Let is never forget what injustice looks like.
