Also known as the Lost River Gorge, the Reservation is a series of caves located in the White Mountains, roughly 5 miles from North Woodstock. The Lost River gets its name from the brook in the southern part of the river, which disappears into a steep glacial gorge filled with immense chunks of granite. The river emerges again to join the Pemigewasset River after taking its subterranean shortcut. The river is a great location for hiking and has a series of purpose built walkways that allow easy access to the caves.

  Peachtree City is located in central Georgia, in the south Metro Atlanta area. While just 50 kilometres from the state capital, it has its own distinct suburban feel. This feeling is strengthened by the string of parks, lakes, and open spaces Peachtree City contains. There are also several golf courses, and 140 km of dedicated golf cart paths. Around 10,000 families use them to get about instead of the roads. Not to be confused with Peachtree Corners in the northern suburbs of Atlanta, Peachtree City is a tranquil escape – with the police department consisting of just a single vehicle in 1965.
