Directions
from Atlanta (its easy!)
Find your way to the Interstate 285 (the perimeter road) and
go to the top side of Atlanta. Go to the interchange with
GA 400 (an expressway.) Go north on GA 400 to Exit 12B (heading
west) on McFarland Road. Go 1.2 miles to the intersection
of Union Hill Road (there is a stoplight at this intersection
and a Citgo on the right.) Turn right on Union Hill Road.
Go 1.2 miles to Wakoola Water Gardens - which will be on the
right. You will have to look through the trees to see our
rustic wooden building, but there is a sign out front. If
you miss the building don't worry because Union Hill Road
dead ends into Shiloh Road about 1/2 a mile on up the road.
Turn around and come on back.

Directions
from the hills of North Georgia (its still easy!)
Find your
way to GA 400 (it is limited access road north of Cumming)
and go south. Now you can go all the way to McFarland Road
(exit 12,) turn right and follow the above directions. That
is the simple way. But if you want to save a few miles, get
off of GA 400 at GA 141- Peachtree Parkway (exit 13.) Turn
right. In about 200 yards you will need to take a left on
Highway 9. There is a red light. After taking the left you
will go 1.4 miles to Shiloh Road. Turn left onto Shiloh Road.
There is no red light at this intersection but as a landmark
there is a small field with farm equipment (look for the gourds
strung on a wire) just before Shiloh Rd. Go down Shiloh Road
for 1.6 miles and turn right onto Union Hill Rd. Go approximately
.3 miles and Wakoola Water Gardens is on the left. The sign
may be a little hard to see from this direction but as a landmark
you will pass a clean, white house in a large grass field
on your left and Wakoola Water Gardens is the next drive.
