Standing on one of Cobb County’s last original 19th-century unpaved roads.

Long before asphalt and highway lines, this dirt road led Winifred and George Power home to their log cabin near the Chattahoochee River. Places like this—where history feels completely untouched—are becoming a rare gift. Learn more about the Power Family Cabin at CobbLandmarks.com/PowerCabin.
