Top 10 Traveler Resources in Georgia, Georgia
While Atlanta is the anchor and capital of Georgia, you can aim in any direction to find distinctly different regions – from the tail of the Appalachians in the North to the rolling Piedmont hills and on down to the seaside marshes in the East. Atlanta lays claim to the state’s number one attraction – Stone Mountain State Park. They say it best - “Serious fun. Endless adventure.” Just 15 minutes from downtown, the world’s largest exposed granite dome is surrounded by 3,200 acres of natural beauty and stimulating activities for every member of the family – sky rides and hiking paths, laser shows and pedal boats along Stone Mountain Lake. Golfers tee it up, while red foxes dash across the fairways in a state where the Masters Golf Tournament creates revered green-jacket memories every year. It’s a long downhill ride down to historic Savannah, a ‘stone’s throw’ from the Atlantic and a virtual step back in time to Southern architecture and stately squares. St. Simon’s and Jekyll Islands offer barrier island beauty and a wonderful combination of outdoor activities, historic sites and artistic culture. Originally the private winter playground of wealthy northeasterners, Jekyll Island stretches along 10 miles of coastal beaches and inland marshes. Cycling and walking paths wind under moss-laden oaks, and a tour of Millionaire Village takes you back to those Cornelius Vanderbilt and J.P. Morgan days. The kid-friendly Summer Waves Water Park adds man-made fun to natural water sport activities. Coastal golf courses and sophisticated St. Simon’s Island appeal to moms, dads and vacationing couples.

I really enjoyed this museum. Regardless of your political affiliation, this museum offers interesting insights into President Carter’s character and the pivotal moments of his life. It’s very well laid out visually and chronologically. Plan on spending 2-3 hours depending on how much you like to read and how many of the films you watch.

Sapelo Island is truly a one of a kind place and the Visitor's Center put one in the frame of mind to truly enjoy the island if you are fortunate enough to visit it or simply learn about the island's history which is amazing. We Airbnb'd on the Island and used the Visitor's Center to familiarize ourselves with the history of the island and what to expect. Two books will take you back in time to the Island's unique history: "Goin' D'Iland" by Mike Sellers and "God, Dr. Buzzard & the Bolito Man" by Cornelia Walker Bailey are must reads and both available at the Visitor's Center. If you're fortunate enough to go to the Island don't pass up the chance and be prepared to immerse yourself in a time long past.

Excellent first stop on our recent visit to Savannah. Lots of helpful maps and people, a small gift shop and clean restrooms. Convenient parking lot and also near a parking garage if you want to park under cover - also a stop for the CAT free trolley is nearby as well as some other, paid, trolley tours of Savannah. There is a small snack stand also in the building. The building itself is worth a look, beautiful and impressive inside and out!

We (my wife and I) have been here many times. This concert was the best. I purchased two VIP tickets. Dinner and parking was included. The dinner was selected personally by the artist. It included salad, the main course, dessert and wine. The wine was a red sangiovese and a white Pinot Grigio from the Bocelli Vineyard. The winery is run by the artist and his brother and has been in his family for over 150 years. The main course was Veal Oscar and it was delicious. I was very pleasantly surprised. Dessert was a parfait and it was decadent. There were Belgian chocolates at each place setting to take with you when you left to go to your seats. The concert itself was fabulous with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra and a University of Georgia Chorus backing up the Artist. The sound system for this event was notably improved. The clarity of the sound on the floor level was outstanding.
