Media, Editorial & Commercial Productions
A superb location for video commercials, film production, commercial and catalog photography, promotional videos, and news/editorial projects.
Setting
On 3,500 acres of natural beauty just 40 minutes north of Atlanta, Château Élan offers 75 acres of lush vineyards surrounding a 16th century style French Château with a full-production winery, the largest in Georgia. The Atlanta Journal Constitution described the scene as “ Château Élan may look like something you’d see in the Loire Valley of France but this romantic retreat with a French accent is very much at home in Georgia.” Also four golf courses, Four Diamond 276 room French Country Inn, a secluded 33,000 sq. ft. European Spa Mansion by a small lake with 14 guest suites, Equestrian Show Center, Championship Tennis Center, eight restaurants, miles of hiking and bicycle trails, and lovely winding country roads bordered by stately homes. No unsightly telephone poles and wires to mar the scenery—the cables are all buried underground. Also Road Atlanta, a 2.5 mile Grand Prix track, home of the Panoz Driving and Racing School and the American LeMans series racing circuit. .
