About Emerson

Emerson is a small Bartow County community sitting right along I-75, making it an easy spot for commuters who want quick access to both northwest Atlanta and the great outdoors. The town serves as the front door to Red Top Mountain State Park and Lake Allatoona, where residents can hike, fish, and boat just minutes from their front doors. Despite its steady growth, the area holds on to a relaxed, quiet pace.

In recent years, Emerson has gained wider attention as the home of LakePoint Sports, a massive travel sports and entertainment complex that draws visitors from across the country. Daily living here revolves around scenic views, nearby shopping in Cartersville, and a close-knit neighborhood feel, giving newcomers plenty of open space without cutting them off from everyday conveniences.
