Bishop is classic and larger-than-life

Bishop is a small town in Georgia’s Oconee County that goes large when it comes to outdoor play.

A lot of people who come to Bishop are specifically seeking the Classic City Clydesdale farm, a rare attraction to the South. The farm offers tours where you can get up close and personal with a larger-than-life Clydesdale horse. The farm is open for tours Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., and by appointment for trail rides (4 person max and a 24-hour notice). For a motorcoach group tour, contact the Welcome Center.
If farm livin’ is the life for you, don’t miss the seasonal farmers market at the crossroads in Bishop, open Thursdays from 4-7 p.m. Fill your basket with the freshest local produce and eat well.

Visitors are also welcome to enjoy the beauty of the gardens of Piccadilly Farm during daylight hours. The gardens feature trails with hellebores, camellias, native plants, conifers, and many other special collections for your enjoyment.
When the kids get a little restless, take them to 37-acre Herman C. Michael Park. The park has three lighted softball fields, four lighted tennis courts, two junior tennis courts, two lighted outdoor basketball courts, one gymnasium with full basketball court, two volleyball courts, soccer/multi-use field, playground, picnic shelter, and a 1.25-mile paved walking trail – in other words, plenty of activities to release some energy.
Golfers will want to check out Lane Creek Golf Club, opened in 1992 and designed by Mike Young. This 18-hole, semi-private golf course is open to the public for daily fee play, and includes redesigned greens and bunkers.
