Georgia National Fairgrounds & Agricenter

Reviewed By Bob A

We were here for the FMCA RV Rally and convention. Rv rallys has been here often because the fair grounds are so accommodating. There were over 2,400 motorhomes in attendance and everything seemed to run smoothly given there was such a large number of units trying to get parked at the same time.

Go Fish Education Center

The Go Fish Education Center takes visitors on an educational journey through Georgia's watersheds to learn about our diverse aquatic wildlife, their natural habitats and the impacts of water pollution. Beyond that, the Center serves as a great resource of fishing information for any level of angler - where to go, what to use and when. We have over 170,000 gallons of aquatic exhibits that feature fish from the mountains, piedmont, coastal plain and swamp habitats of Georgia. We also have freshwater and saltwater fishing simulators, hunting simulators and a pond where you can try out your fishing skills. We are a Georgia Department of Natural Resources Facility. Open hours are Friday and Saturday from 9 am to 5 pm and Sunday from 1 pm to 5 pm. Tuesday - Thursday we do field trips or group tours. These need to be scheduled in advance.

Historic Downtown Perry

Enjoy shopping, dining and history in the quaint downtown area of Perry, Georgia. Home of Sam Nunn and The New Perry Hotel, this wonderful small town is just glowing with pride and beauty. Enjoy an afternoon stroll in the unique shops on Carroll Street and later enjoy a fabulous meal at any of our downtown restaurants.

Downtown Perry is a nice area. Only about 6 blocks total, there are plenty of shops, restaurants, resting places (benches), and shade. This would be a very nice lunch or dinnertime walk through the area and then stop at one of the restaurants for some excellent food.

Flat Creek Public Fishing Area

Reviewed By Bernadette C - St. Petersburg, Florida

We happened to stop in Perry, Georgia simply by accident and without much planning. We saw the Fishing Education Center and decided to jump off 75 and try to find a place to stay during out last trip through Georgia.
Once we found a place we wandered back to that area and found the Flat Creek Public Fishing Area.
We weren't there too long because this was an unplanned adventure but with a little more planning we could have been there for a couple hours. My youngest son and husband love to fish so this was great for them.
Nice location, remote, and not too busy when we were there. I could see it getting pretty busy during the summer months though.
Well maintained and plenty of places to fish, including a dock.
Boat ramps available. Plenty of parking. Fish cleaning area.

Perry Players

Perry Players Theatre offers high-quality entertainment and cultural activities to the citizens of middle Georgia. Though it is an amateur community theatre, they strive for excellence and professionalism in all that they do. I have seen practically every show of the past five seasons and it is rare that they do not satisfy. There is nothing like seeing a show performed live. Put it on your "must do" list!!

Barbara Calhoun Park

Reviewed By HerrP - Warner Robins, Georgia

Note that this park is in Perry, GA, not Warner Robins as it's listed here on Trip Advisor.

This park is listed as a "passive" park, which as I understand it, there aren't any events scheduled but it's open to the public throughout the day.

If you're into archery, this is the place. There are many archery "boards" set up so that many arrows can be thrown at any time.

There is also a playground, a charcoal grill, and other items that are conducive to a park where you can bring the kids or the dogs. You can have some privacy and enjoy yourself without the crowds.

Do stop on by. The park is open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
