Riverwalk Augusta is a city park along the Savannah River in downtown Augusta, in Georgia. The park is alongside and on top of Augusta's levee. It extends from 11th Street to the Gordon Highway bridge. Sites along the Riverwalk include St. Paul's Episcopal Church, Fort Discovery, and the Morris Museum of Art. I haven't been Augusta Riverwalk since early 2000's. It still remains the same except now there a homes built across the River. The weather was perfect and wanted to take a stroll downtown. It was very relaxing, clean and really loved the landscaping. There are also special events held at the Riverwalk- festivals, marathons, shows, arts, and more. A great addition and must visit when in the city of Augusta.

Let's start off with a couple of big selling points. This is free and next to the Savannah River. That alone makes it a winner, but yes there's more. If you follow the sidewalk, starting at 5th Street, and follow it along the river till about 10th you will not only find a most majestic view, but numerous benches, eating areas, a playground, swings, and a stage. On Saturday's this walk will bring you into the Downtown Market and, at various times, live performances ranging from music to dance to poetry. Now you can also take the sidewalk that is atop the levelle, but you will need to start that walk at 6th Street (the railroad track breaks up the walk). From there you can see the many buildings of downtown, the river, and even find yourself at the front door of the Morris Museum. Because of the recent move, you are also at the front entrance of the downtown YMCA (700 Block). There is construction once you near 11th street, but this is because of the extension of the sidewalk to go all the way to 13th street. So take your time, read the numerous markers and learn more about Augusta in the process. I highly recommend walking it near sunset.

Photo op!

Love going down to 5th St. Marina! There is so much to see and do, absolutely beautiful. Check out the little store, they have plenty to offer... Souvenirs, snacks, drinks and ice cream! Beth and her little dog Rosie are always a treat!! There is also a permanent food truck but I'm not sure on the hours during the week, definitely open on the weekends, great food!

Relaxing

Really love that there are not that many people that come here, compared to bigger cities and their parks/riverwalks. It just makes things all the more peaceful. I find great solace coming here after some stressful times. Water doesn't look that clean, but what does anymore anyway. Great location to come and just ponder.

I am an Augustian ( or just an Augusta native lol) I have developed a new love for the Riverwalk here. Here you can be creative and allow yourself to let go and relax! If you sneak up on them just right, you can catch turtles sunbathing and peddling in the water or even a glimpse of a crane perching on a rock (most of the them are at the Savannah Rapids). I came out during the pandemic to get a quick jog in. I was such a joy to see others doing the same, walking dogs, pushing kids in strollers and even to hear an acoustic guitar being played. This is a great place to be day or night. There's a nice pincnic area at Oglethorpe Park, that's located right next to the marina at the train trestle where you can grill out in the water's view. Be sure to visit that really nice lady in the souvenir shop with that cute "little doggie in the window" and pick up ice cream on a hot day while you wait for your boat tour or any other snack! Find out how to rent a boat for a boat party, touring or even for play and also about kayaking/rentals! MUCH to do in the area, just takes the strike upon a friendly convo to find out about all the neat-os to see and do here!

Nice view

I came to visit a friend for the weekend and we headed downtown. It was very peaceful and relaxing.

Speaks for itself!

THE PERFECT SANCTUARY! The Riverwalk area is beautiful. It is very well designed with viewing areas, swings, picnic tables and plenty of shade. During our first visit, we arrived on the marina side and visited the Marina store. This is a great place to obtain information and purchase souvenirs and refreshments. You can also pick up a free map of the immediate area, (including downtown), and a schedule for the boat tours. We decided not to take a boat tour because they only offered afternoon hours when it is very hot outside. We wanted an early morning tour around 9 am or earlier. We visited the Riverwalk again when we attended the Farmer's Market. We were able to explore the park and enjoy sitting on the swing and at the picnic table shaded by the mature trees. It is just so calm and peaceful here. Yes, you may encounter a few homeless men here but they are harmless and are in no way threatening. This is just a very comfortable place for them to hang out in this heat. The breeze generated by the trees was very inviting. There is a little park for the children to enjoy. Today I was lucky enough to observe the train crossing the bridge. It completed my Norman Rockwell picture! I

I frequent this place very often. Alot of times I come here when I need to clear my head from the stress of my daily life. I can always lose myself in thought here. It's very peaceful and beautiful place to get your mind together. It's perfect for someone who wants to spend quality time with a loved one. I don't think I will never stop coming here, I consider this my little private mediatation spot.

Great customer service, so much fun, great selections of tap beer and ciders. I'm not a beer…read moredrinking so the ciders were perfect. The cherry cider was my fave. Beautiful layout and lots of game options. Nice and dark but illuminated well throughout. Adequate indoor and outdoor seating, patio style seating out back. Free popcorn station. Board/card games available, jumbo Jenga and tons of other options. They have frozen drinks, cocktails and tap beer/cider. Great for groups, you can bring in your own food. Pet friendly. They bought my dog a nice bowl of cool water. He enjoyed himself. I didn't get much alcohol on the frozen drinks but the flavor was good. The popcorn wasn't hot and fresh however it was free and had tons of seasoning options which was super fun and cute. I can't wait to go back. This was a great outing with a friend and my dog! The music is loud near so you may want to step out to have more of an intimate conversation. So fun to be a kid again. I would take your pet on the slower days, during the week etc just so it's not too much.

If you want to taste the different variety of alcohol, look no further. I really enjoyed the wristband idea of where you self-serve and can taste and enjoy many variety of alcohol. I went during St. Patrick day and had a huge crowd hanging out in front of establishment. During the weekday, the place can be empty, which is typical for bars in Augusta. One of the highlights is that Draft Society does let you bring in food. I saw the majority of people bringing in food from Laziza. I like games they had available. I wish they had more TV available for people to watch. I came back during a Saturday night and was disappointed that there was no band playing. I am hoping to go one day and see a live band play at the venue.

Planning a wedding during this pandemic has been extremely stressful. When we researched Enterprise Mills Event, we were extremely excited for our tour and hopeful we found our wedding venue. Unfortunately, the pleasant individual via email was not who we met in person. Heather did not respect us enough to greet us. She did not take the time to introduce herself to us. She did not even bother to ask for our names. When we entered the building we were addressed with " how many people are you expecting?" I was not prepared for us to experience that level of degrading and unprofessional service. She thought that little of us to not be courteous and professional but wanted to ask how long we were engaged. She appeared to be uninterested in showing us the venue space as if she did not want our business. We were informed the rental hours are 5 hours for decorations and 4 hours for the event. When my fiancé asked the cost for additional hours. She was extremely dismissive and made it known that the bartender rate would be higher. She did not provide us with the additional fees by fiancé was asking for. The level of service from Heather Bowen was extremely disappointing and insulting. We were not treated with the respect and professionalism we deserve. It could have been due to her personal biases/prejudices or just her true personality towards everyone. However, she is a poor representation for this organization. I am a registered nurse, and my fiancé and I both work for the federal government. We both know the importance of professionalism and respecting individuals. Our veterans are the reason we are employed. My fiancé is also a veteran and proudly served our country. Our wedding planner is fully aware of the situation. I can assure you; this type of poor service does negatively impact businesses.

But, I specifically want to shout out Coach Matt for his swimming instruction. I'm an adult and learned to swim as a child. However, I had some negative experiences with water in later years and wanted to conquer that and learn how to swim laps. Matt has been an amazing teacher; very patient, kind, and explains things in a way that make sense to my brain. It's clear he has a lot of knowledge and his demeanor put me at ease--both to try conquering my apprehensions about swimming and also to ask any question I wanted. I often got to my lessons early and got to see Matt working with other students, both children and adults. It's clear others also appreciate working with him. One mother told me her daughter was afraid to put her head under water before Coach Matt, and we watched as her daughter now leapt into the deep end with a smile on her face! I was only in Augusta for a few months, but if I return, I will definitely be trying to get a few more lessons in with Matt.

This is one of Augusta's most rewarding museums, a place that manages to tell a 12,000‑year story…read morewithout ever feeling overwhelming. The Augusta Museum of History is the city's oldest historical institution, founded in 1937 and now the only accredited museum in the Central Savannah River Area, which gives it a level of curatorial depth you can feel as you move from room to room. The museum's signature exhibition, Augusta's Story, begins with the region's earliest Indigenous cultures, including artifacts from the Stallings Island people, and then moves through the Colonial Era, the antebellum period, the Civil War, and the city's twentieth century reinventions. You see everything from slave‑made pottery to a 12‑pounder bronze Napoleon cannon tube and an 1869 steam fire engine tied to the devastating 1916 fire that reshaped parts of the city. It's a rare chance to see Augusta's full arc laid out in a way that feels comprehensive. The museum also excels at capturing the city's cultural identity. The James Brown gallery is a highlight, celebrating the life and global influence of the "Godfather of Soul" with photographs, stage pieces, and biographical context that show how deeply he shaped Augusta's modern identity. Several media options to watch him performing and to hear other leading figures discuss his influence. The golf and Masters Tournament section offers a thoughtful look at how the sport became intertwined with the city's reputation, and the medical history exhibit includes an impressive wall of antique medicine bottles that gives you a sense of how local healthcare evolved over generations. One of the most enjoyable parts of the visit is the Transportation Corridor, which brings Augusta's mobility story to life with a 1914 steam locomotive, a 1917 steam trolley, a reconstructed 1930s gas station, and a range of early vehicles. Walking through the restored streetcar and stepping into the rail car for photos adds a tactile, playful element that balances the more traditional exhibits. Upstairs, the museum's radio history exhibit traces the rise of WBBQ, one of Augusta's most influential stations, including a "then and now" section installed for its 60th anniversary. There are also exhibits on local law enforcement and firefighting, as well as a gallery of regional legends that highlights entertainers, athletes, writers, and other notable Augustans. The entire museum is comfortably explored in about two hours, which makes it an easy and rewarding stop whether you're spending a full day downtown or pairing it with the Morris Museum of Art or the Riverwalk. It's the kind of place that leaves you with a clearer sense of Augusta's character, from its earliest settlements to the voices and industries that shaped the city you see today. Don't miss it.

It sits on a concrete landing that's easy enough to climb in order to get a better view of the details or take pictures. I was intrigued. Down the street, maybe a block away is the mural.
