About Plainville
Plainville is a quiet community tucked into the scenic rolling valleys of northwest Georgia, right along the border of Gordon and Floyd counties. Situated near a peaceful bend in the Oostanaula River, it offers wide-open spaces and a relaxed, rural atmosphere. The town grew as a railroad stop in the late 1800s and later became known for its historic brick-making industry, giving the area a simple, grounded charm.
Today, Plainville appeals to newcomers looking for elbow room, privacy, and a slower pace of living. While the town itself is small and primarily residential, its location keeps everyday necessities within easy reach. Georgia Highway 53 runs nearby, providing a straightforward drive northeast to Calhoun or southwest to Rome for work, dining, and shopping. It provides a peaceful countryside base without cutting you off from larger neighboring cities.
