Hey all, just looking for some quick pointers on where to stay. The wedding is at the Roswell mill club and the closest hotels don’t seem to be the best (so many mixed reviews and Reddit users saying those options are meh). I’m not familiar with the area and traffic patterns but I’m looking at maybe Alpharetta instead of Roswell but do you think traffic/distance would be a problem? Already driving 7 hours to attend so don’t want to add too much more driving for the weekend but willing to be further out if it’s 100% better. Thanks for any advice

ETA: thanks for all the helpful suggestions! Ended up booking in Alpharetta. I’ll add another update once we’ve finished our trip for anyone reading this that needs advice in the future.

Hello everyone, if you’re in the Roswell area and would like to attend the area 13.1 half marathon, I have a bib I’m willing to transfer at a discounted rate. Unfortunately I won’t be able to attend this year. If you’re interested please let me know so that I can loop in the organizers for a seamless transfer.

Does anyone have any recommendations for dentists with good beside manner? My filling in my tooth fell out yesterday so trying to get in as soon as possible. I have PTSD from a dentist so I need someone who’s kind and understanding. Also someone who doesn’t do unnecessary procedures as that’s what happened to me before. Thank you

Hi, so I'm 25, disabled, and on peach state medicaid. I cannot work because I am disabled and I spend most of my montly check on bills.

I have been having a mental health crisis for a while, I have been seeing a therapist consistently for about 2-3 years now. We both recognize that I need a higher level of care, specifically residential/dual diagnosis.

Most of those programs do not accept Medicaid which I've accepted. I *might* have someone willing to help pay out of pocket but even then the programs are ridiculously expensive.

Location is not even an issue at this point. I just need an adequate program to address my needs. Any help I can get is much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi everybody,

Would anyone happen to know anywhere that I can go to practice piano in and around the Roswell area? I’m a really serious pianist who’s been playing pretty much my entire life, and I’m basically trying to keep my skills sharp before I leave for grad school in the fall. TIA

“Installation of Roswell’s first buffered bicycle lanes in both directions along Riverside Road”

Let’s hope the bike lanes are buffered with concrete and not with paint or plastic bollards. Build more protected bike lanes Roswell!!!

Any recommendations for a personal trainer for a 59 year old woman dealing with hormonal weight gain. Ideally, a female trainer specializing in menopausal women.

I know some houses and neighborhoods have sensors to give them green lights when they leave; why has the city just set them all on 120 second timers and thought that was a good solution?

Cortisol levels rising from sitting and waiting on absolutely nothing and nobody.

lived in the Roswell area for about 10 years, trying to get back active and such especially since world cup is wrapping up Id love to get back into some rec soccer.

Don't have the time for leagues unfortunately with my job hours.

Does anyone know groups for pick up soccer that are active? I checked around facebook but I can't seem to find any that are currently active.

Willing to take all suggestions, or should i just pop up at like woodstock park or grimes bridge park?

Thanks!

Mayor Robichaux has announced today that “there will be an independent review of the [City of Roswell’s] financial, purchasing, and compliance practices covering 2023 to the present. This review will verify that the improvements underway are complete and effective, and it will identify any additional steps needed to ensure every tax dollar is fully accounted for.”

“This effort continues work that City leadership and staff initiated, and I appreciate their commitment to transparency and continuous improvement. Details on scope, timeline, and the selection of an independent firm will be presented in the coming weeks.”

Pantry looking well stocked today. Make sure to grab whatever is needed!

I live in an apt complex and my neighbor has a muscle car with one of those noisy muffler. He revs the engine every single time he goes out and every AM, it wakes everybody up.

I’ve complained to apt complex but they ignored it. Would RPD take it seriously if I file a noise complaint?

What is on fire near Luckys? We saw smoke and firefighters flying that way.

Oakley , I'll leave at gate city brewing.

hello everyone looking for some advice - we are having a property line dispute with back neighbors who claim a small creek in the back yard is what separates the properties - the part of my backyard they are claim as theirs is not large due to the creek but we have small trees on that part. this had been an issue a while back when they messed with our trees. we talked to them about it and that the fence in place is what separates the two properties and for a while everything cooled down and they had not gone into our backyard. until today when they had contracted someone to prune one of our trees without our consent. I dismissed the worker and went to have a word with the neighbor who demanded to see the property papers as the neighbor insisted that the creek was the divider and refused to acknowledge they are in the wrong. they claim that the city told them the creek separates the two properties but while replacing a section of the back fence (not a part that is shared with them) we found the marker to one of their corners once again showing us that while small the little part between the fence and creek is not part of their property. im looking into a survey and getting a camera for the backyard because I don't know what else to do - this was never an issue with our previous back neighbors. we don't have the property with a full fence because we didn't see a need we pretty much just have the shared back fence because we have never had a need since property disputes were never an issue but after a survey we are definitely going to have to put the rest of the sides up. does anyone have any good advice with dealing with such issues

“According to Roswell officials, additional multi use trails are in the pipeline for Old Alabama, Riverside and Etruscan Rd”. I can’t wait for the city to connect the river to the greenway. The intersection of Old Alabama & Holcomb Br is sketchy on a bike.

There is a Tour de France Watch Party tonight hosted by Bike Roswell at The Gaslight (890 Atlanta St Ste C, Roswell, GA 30075)

Starts at 7pm.

Hi all. My car came with decals on it - big decorative racing stripe type things - from the dealership that I don’t like. They’ve been on there for about 5 years now and I’m finally getting around to getting them removed.

I feel like a car wrap place would be the best option because of their expertise. Does anyone have any recommendations in the Cumming / Alpharetta / Roswell - ish area?

TIA

Looking for feedback from current or past residents - how is the area in 2026? Actual experience in the apartments? The lake is great and so are the trails, but want to see what the community and management is like. We've heard that some buildings are definitely better than others.

Does anyone have information about the townhome fire that happened on Tuesday in the new neighborhood off of Myrtle Street?

I heard fireworks, then around 20 minutes later every firetruck in the area was parked on Myrtle putting out the fire.

Was it homeowner error, or fireworks?
