It’s currently a COVID testing facility and I have no complaints. The process was relatively quick and I was out in less than 10 minutes. The process itself was painless and the service was professional.

The N.Ga. Fair is in town till the 29th and we went on $2 Tuesday and it was lots of fun, even for my little one. Not too many people but the deals were worth it and all the food stations offered a different $2 food item so you had alot of choices. Lines were avg but moved fast. And we checked out the BMX and Ninja experience shows they had. Pretty cool stuff. Hopefully Ill have time to go again this weekend before it leaves.

Great family outing! Carnival food - all over priced but great outing especially since Covid has prevented the vendors from making a decent living. We took 7 cans of food to contribute to Must Ministries. Only one more day in Cobb County. Social distancing and mask wearing is observed. We did not plan on getting out of the car but the weather was gorgeous so we decided to get out and go to the vendors instead of ordering from the car.

Been going since I was a kid now I get to take my babies. We had a BLAST last night. They had a petting zoo, even had a giraffe we were able to get and feed. Tons of rides, games and great different great concerts by county artists every night. Kids 10 and under are free and only $10 for adults. Definitely worth it. Just bring some bottled drinks in a purse or something because food and drinks are expensive and youll get VERY thirsty out there!

Covid test - WOW, Best site in Cobb - I arrived at 7:45 for an 8:30 appointment and they sent me right on through. Waited for 10 minutes, spent maybe 5 at the testing tent. Everything was explained well and quickly, and I was on my way - if you need a Covid test, this is the place. The other facilities wont honor your appointment, or their phones are disconnected to force you to use websites that offer bogus booking times.

One of the best COVID-19 testing site in my opinion. Speedy service provides by trained professionals and friendly staff.

My mother and I were tested here for covid-19. Very well organized and plenty of signs. Everyone involved at this testing site was very courteous and respectful. From start to finish it didnt take very long at all.

A great fair each September. Totally worth it to just ride the sky buckets back and forth! Check their website for daily events/deals, and OReilleys for coupons.

The kids enjoyed seeing the different clowns. The circus act needs a little work lol Some of the rides could use an upgrade. Overall it was an okay time. I think this event was by shriners.

Parking is extremely handicap inaccessible during big events like the state fair, while the inside is paved and there is some handicapped parking, there is no where near the amount of handicap spaces to meet the need. I’ve seen people who need the space to expand a ramp from their van have to go home because there’s not enough room, it’s not the people parking or the ticket people, it’s whoever owns the park itself.

The park is a very home-y feel to it, the park is well taken care of, and the visit was pleasant. It is especially nice during the North Georgia State Fair when they showed that the park could support so many guests. With the recent addition of the new exhibit center, it really adds some class to the place.

Review №26

Jim R. Miller Park is a great place for all the events Cobb County and others host throughout the year. There is always a lot of parking, and the restrooms are updated and clean. It is definitely a place to visit for one of the many events held here.

Halloween here was a fun and safer option than traditional trick or treating.

Review №29

We spent over 2.5 hours in grid-lock traffic and was less than 2 miles away. No traffic control, no police presence, NO consideration by fair or Cobb County officials for public safety, etc. By the time we actually reached the fairgrounds, there wouldnt have been enough time to ride more than a ride or two. We left in disgust and will NEVER attend this fair again and urge EVERYONE to stay away if you value your SAFETY and time.

I like this area! I only have gone to this park for the fair, but I love it. It’s easy to navigate. It’s not to expensive. Parking can get complicated, but that’s no big deal. My family and I always have a great time, and plan to go as often as we can to the fair.

Took 2 & 3 y.o. G-kids to play. OK. Nothing special. More green space would be welcomed, as well as maybe benches, table(s) with umbrellas or pavilion... Eh... mediocre

Review №36

The park has everything from the yearly fair and circus to arts and crafts shows and Used Book Sales. There is something going on almost every weekend. Parking is inexpensive, typically $5 or $10.Note that this is not a park in the traditional sense. There is no grassy field for dog walking, and no playground for kids. This park is more of an event venue.

Very dated/run down. The covered building where they host concerts, rodeos, etc., is falling apart. Disgusting/hardly working restrooms. The GA State Fair is so expensive for what it is. Lots of trashy folks come out for it as well. Something I used to look forward to (the State Fair in the Fall) is now something to completely avoid. In May, The Shrine Circus is a much better value, and less people come out than the State Fair in the Fall. Having said that, back to my original point - the facility is just very dated/run down. For as much money Cobb wastes on various parks, etc., Im not quite sure why they let this place stay so run down.

Everything there is always well-organized, safe and fun!
