Insider Tip
 

Wisteria Hall Bed & Breakfast - Washington, GA

Wisteria Hall Bed & Breakfast - Washington, GA
Wisteria Hall is a gracious Southern belle built in the late 1700's on the old ramparts where friends and lovers used to stroll. When cotton was king, this grand lady turned around and gained her columns and antebellum facade. Coming to her present state through the years from Maria Randolph's elegant parties and Colonel Colley's family to a charming antique shop known as White Columns, it is now Wisteria Hall Bed and Breakfast. Recent restoration has revealed the hand-hewn beams and pegs, slab timbers, and the original wood shingle roof. All of this reminds us again of a gracious and historical past.

I only spent one weekend in Savannah, but I absolutely loved it. The historic area is beautiful beyond words, one of the most unique cities in America. The squares and the homes are mysterious and gorgeous. Trees dripping with Spanish moss. You can almost lose yourself walking through town. The bar scene was surprisingly young and laid back. Overall, it's a place to go and wander. Park your car and leave it. Go, stay in the historic district, take your time, and soak up the southern feel and the postcard-perfect scenes. I know I will definitely be back.

Georgia is a diverse state combining beaches, mountains, history, intriguing natural attractions, the booming metropolis of Atlanta, and antebellum charm all wrapped up into one great package. Half a dozen interstate highways traverse the state; Atlanta's mammoth international airport is one of the world's busiest; Georgia's own hard-surfaced highway system is one of the finest in the country today. Savannah, America's first planned city, has one of the nation's largest historical urban landmark districts, encompassing more than a thousand architecturally and historically important buildings. Ocean beaches and islands are plentiful all the way from Savannah down to the Florida border.

Drive through the North Georgia montains in the Fall. The scenery is beautiful. The South is a great place and Georgia is great to visit. Between Macon, Atlanta and Savannah there is a ton of stuff to do. One of the things I really enjoy is going to the different festivals. There are SO many of them in Georgia.
