Bear Claw Vineyards is a Vineyard, Winery, and Event space in Blue Ridge, GA. What started as a treehouse (the Blue Ridge TreeHouse), grew to become a vineyard with a generously-sized tasting room in 2017. There is plenty of space to enjoy the Bear Claw Vineyard grounds either inside, on a covered patio outside, on the lawn, playing cornhole, relaxing at the fire pit, or snacking at the picnic tables. Choose from over a dozen board games to borrow while you enjoy a beautiful day and your wines.
Live music on select Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. See the Bear Claw Vineyards event calendar for musicians and show times.

I am impressed by how they were able to make a countryside farm like this a tourist destination. This could be a model for others to follow, to have them implement the same style in their countrysides.
I have this running in my mind as I am still single and thinking of a wedding anytime sooner. The Bear Claw Vineyard Covered Patio can be a good place to host the wedding, and after the event, we will spend the honeymoon in that treehouse that’s visible from the covered patio. The idea sounds great, right? Add to that, fresh wines for the couple are accessible too.
Hi Gomer, Getting married at a Georgia vineyard venue definitely sounds like a memorable wedding event. And believe it or not, Bear Claw actually has a separate, dedicated space for hosting events like weddings!! “The Club at Bear Claw” is literally across the street from the tasting room, and has space for up to 250 guests.
