Marshall Forest is located in Floyd County, in Georgia, 5 miles (8.0 km) outside the Rome city limits.

Once a part of the Cherokee Nation, the 311 acres (126 ha) were bought by the Marshall family in 1880.

The forest contains fifty-five trees species, such as pine-oak, chestnut oak, and mixed hardwoods.

The trails provide informational aides, including plant identification tags, and twenty stop-and-observe stations, with signs in both Braille and English.

The Nature Conservancy, founded nationally in 1951, has managed Marshall Forest for five years.

Volunteers assist in nonprofit work such as boundary marking and removal of invasive species.
