Where the Vines Meet the Good Life

A two-night escape in the Georgia hills, with $150 to spend however the day takes you.

There’s a particular kind of afternoon that only happens in the South: the light going golden over the vines, a glass of something worth lingering over, nowhere to be until dinner. That’s the rhythm of Chateau Elan. Tucked into the rolling hills of Braselton, Georgia, this winery and resort has been making believers out of skeptics for decades, earning its place among the finest retreats in the region not through fanfare, but through the quiet confidence of doing things right. As a Garden & Gun reader, you’ll receive a two-night stay and $150 in resort credit to spend exactly as you see fit: at the table, on the course, in the spa, or at the tasting bar.

Book with code GARDENGUN for stays June 1 through December 31, 2026. Blackout dates apply.

Dining & Winery

A Winery That Earns Its Reputation

Chateau Elan has been growing, fermenting, and pouring its own wines since 1984, long before Georgia wine was fashionable. Today, the winery stands among the most decorated in the Southeast, and the dining follows suit. Pull up a chair for a chef-driven dinner, linger over a vineyard tasting, or wander into the bistro for something easy and honest.

Experiences

Days Worth Savoring

Whether your idea of a perfect morning is a sunrise tee time on a championship course or a slow walk through the vines with coffee in hand, there’s room for it here. The spa runs at its own unhurried pace; the tennis courts and fitness center are there when the spirit moves you. Cooking classes, seasonal events, and guided experiences fill out the calendar, but no one’s keeping score.

Just Beyond the Vines

Good Country, Close By

Step off the property and you’re in the heart of North Georgia, a landscape of small towns, local flavor, and the kind of unhurried pace the South does best. Downtown Braselton is just a stroll away, with boutiques, local haunts, and more of that light you came here for.
