Where Was ‘Ozark’ Filmed? The Georgia Lakes and Towns That Played Missouri

The Byrdes spent four seasons washing cartel money on a Missouri lake that, almost every time you saw it, was sitting in Georgia. Georgia is the answer to where was Ozark filmed, specifically two reservoirs north of Atlanta, Lake Allatoona and Lake Lanier, plus a string of metro Atlanta diners, parks and one very old drive-in. Netflix’s own Tudum travel guide concedes that Ozark was not shot in the Ozarks and that most of the real filming happened in Georgia, and KOMU in Columbia, Missouri, reported that only a few establishing shots came from the actual Lake of the Ozarks.

Atlanta Boomers Are Moving To This Scenic Florida City With Affordable Living And Sandy Beaches

There are many reasons why someone would choose to live in Atlanta. It has a bustling downtown area with attractions and restaurants, and it's a major corporate hub. But for Boomers born between 1946 and 1964 who are no longer in the workforce, the hustle and bustle of daily life in the big city may no longer be serving them. For those looking for a more laid-back lifestyle, Florida's Panama City, located in the Panhandle, could be worth considering. Panama City's proximity to Gulf Coast beaches offers opportunities for frequent beach trips, and recent migration data suggests that the surrounding area is attracting some Atlanta baby boomers.

Georgia Hides A Peaceful Wildlife Sanctuary Where Rescued Bears And Wolves Find A Second Chance

A black bear, an African lion, and a Bengal tiger were rescued as tiny cubs from an Atlanta drug raid in 2001. They grew up sharing one home and became famous as the BLT Trio. That unlikely friendship put a quiet Georgia sanctuary on the map. Today, the same grounds care for more than 170 rescued animals from over 100 species, including black bears and a pair of tundra wolves from Minnesota.

Forget Flying To Germany, Visit Georgia's Largest Beer Garden Near Atlanta For Craft Brews And Bavarian Charm

When knee-deep in deadlines at work, what fan of a certain malt beverage doesn't pine to be in a German beer garden, sipping a frothy dunkel or robust bockbier in a joyous, sylvan atmosphere? If you're in between passports or need a getaway stat, you can enjoy a Bavarian experience closer to home in the United States — which has long borrowed al fresco style points from Europe — at Georgia's Tucker Brewing Company. Toast a hefty Maß, a one-liter vessel of liquid gold, with friends in the state's largest beer garden. It may not boast frescoed stucco walls or views of countryside shops, but Tucker Brewing Company's vibrant patio, vast beer selection, and crave-worthy bites make it worth a stop. "Great food, great atmosphere and the service is second to none," raves one Yelper.

This Old-Fashioned Georgia Bakery Has Been Serving Homemade Pies And Southern Sweets For Decades

Some of the best pies in metro Atlanta started out as a secret. For years, a steakhouse and other big-name restaurants served them without most diners knowing who baked them. That baker eventually opened her doors to the public. She did it right inside the warehouse district where she was already rolling out crusts for her wholesale clients.

Southwest Atlanta Grocery Keeps Prices Low for Seniors, But Funding Has Run Dry

At Goodr Community Market and Little Loaf Deli in southwest Atlanta, a $54 grocery trip can fill several bags, a $3 purchase can help cover someone else's sandwich, and a token program lets shoppers buy food without cash changing hands at the register. For 71-year-old Vanessa Turner, who lives on a fixed income, that kind of pricing is not a nice-to-have. It is what keeps her kitchen stocked.
