CELEBRATE THE 4TH OF JULY ALL SUMMER LONG AT COLLINGWOOD APARTMENT HOMES—AND OUT & ABOUT IN ALPHARETTA, GEORGIA!

Pool

Celebrate summer poolside at Collingwood Apartment Homes—and out and about in Alpharetta, Georgia, where there’s always something fun to do!   Lounge In Luxury Our upscale apartment community’s resort-style saltwater pool is one of the coolest things about living here (no pun intended, LOL!). Lounge in luxury while snacking on some fresh fruit you picked up at the Downtown Alpharetta Farmers Market and sipping on “the” cocktail of summer 2023, a Hugo Spritz. The refreshing drink is named after a boutique hotel in Florence, Italy, where it’s often used to welcome travelers when they arrive after a long day of hiking. With elderflower liqueur, usually St. Germain, as its signature, it’s an alternative to the more-common Aperol Spritz, which has its roots in nearby Padua. (You can pick up what you need for the recipe at Total Wine & More in Alpharetta’s North Point Market Center.)   RECIPE FOR THE HUGO SPRITZ Ingredients Elderflower Liqueur (St. Germain) Sparkling Wine (Prosecco or Cava) Sparkling Water (or Club Soda) Mint (Leaves) Lime (Slices Directions To make one Hugo Spritz, start with a wine glass half full of ice. Pour in 1/2 ounce of elderflower liqueur. Top with 4 ounces of the sparkling wine, then finish with 1 ounce of sparkling water. Gently stir to combine. Taste a sip; add more sparkling water or wine to as desired. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and lime slices.   Avalon Nights Live One way to enjoy yourself in town is to take advantage live music in the Plaza every Friday from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Avalon Nights Live! Bring your tailgate chairs and blankets—and your family and friends so you can dance the night away! An event bar operates out of the back of Avalon’s Concierge; no coolers are permitted.   Home By Dark And once again the beloved Home by Dark at Brooke Street Park Concert Series has returned to delight Collingwood Apartment Homes music lovers old and young. Plan to bring a blanket and picnic to enjoy a night of stories, songs, and inspiration you’ll never forget.   Take Me Out To the Ballgame If you want to venture just a little farther afield, plan a drive down into the city to catch hometown homerun heroes the Atlanta Braves at play at Truist Park. Peanuts, Cracker Jack, draft beer, and a hotdog and some popcorn will make your outing complete!

Pet Friendly Collingwood Apartment Homes in Alpharetta, Georgia LOVES our Yappy Hours!

Collingwood Apartment Homes are pet friendly

As far as we’re concerned, every day is pet day at Collingwood Apartment Homes in Alpharetta, Georgia, so of course we were excited to celebrate our four-legged buds during a recent Yappy Hour at our clubhouse! The cutest pups ever joined in the fun, enjoying all sorts of treats. According to the Humane Society of the United States, pets live in two-thirds of American homes, and 72 percent of the people who rent their homes have pets. We know how important it is for a luxury apartment community to be pet-friendly, and that’s why our Collingwood Apartment Homes Idea Specialists™ made sure we incorporated a large fenced Pet Park into our landscaping plans from the very beginning. Because, barks and recreation, right? And, we celebrate our fuzzy friends all the time online in social media posts and in a gallery at our website. Nothing brings a smile to our faces like seeing sweet kitties and good doggies!
