Travel Information for Georgia Hotel Guests

GEORGIA is not only about mint juleps on the porch of an antebellum mansion and enjoying traditional Southern hospitality. Georgia has exciting destinations that are fun for the whole family, from interactive museums to waterparks and zoos to the thrills and spills of a world-class amusement park; and outdoors to state parks brimming with Civil War history, panning for gold in the Georgia Mountains, hiking the Appalachian Trail, shooting the Chattanooga River rapids and enjoying the beaches and golf courses along the Coast at charming Savannah and the beautiful Brunswick & The Golden Islands.

Along with mainland Brunswick, the four islands found amid the clusters of barrier islands that hug Georgia's historic Atlantic Coastline are known collectively as BRUNSWICK & THE GOLDEN ISLES; they are St. Simons Island, Little St. Simons Island, Sea Island and Jekyll Island.

Although nearly two centuries have passed since COLUMBUS was planned on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, it is still still first and foremost a Rivertown; its Historic District has over 20 blocks of period renovation of homes, restaurants and businesses; the Coca-Cola Space Science Center houses a Challenger Learning Center (for simulated space missions), and the Port Columbus Civil War Naval Center covers the history of naval operations during the Civil War.

CUMBERLAND is known for sea turtles, abundant shore birds, dune fields, its maritime forest, salt marshes, and historic structures. In the GEORGIA MOUNTAINS north of Atlanta visitors can enjoy the beauty of Tallulah Gorge, and the grandeur of Amicalola Falls; they can ride a white-water raft down the Chattooga River, pan for gold in Dahlonega, tour a winery, hike the Appalachian Trail or the Chieftains Trail, fish for bass on Lake Lanier, explore the Etowah Indian Mounds, or shop for crafts and unique mountain gifts.

Five national historic districts and Confederate and National cemeteries make MARIETTA a “must see” for history buffs; it also has the largest water park in the Southeast, Six Flags - WhiteWater; next door is American Adventures, an amusement park designed just for kids. Built on the side of PINE MOUNTAIN in 1932 by president Franklin D.
