Rest Haven

This smallest of Gwinnett’s municipalities, Rest Haven, straddles the line between Gwinnett and Hall counties near Buford and is home to about 147 residents, most of whom live on the Gwinnett side of the line. Founded in 1938 to eliminate a rowdy roadhouse that fell within its city limits, Rest Haven charges no property taxes and has few zoning regulations, the most notable being the prohibition against alcohol sales since its founding.
