Lisa loves animals and has dogs, rats, cats, guinea pigs, and snakes. She is passionate about animal rescue and live music - traveling across the country to see a favorite band is a pretty regular occurrence! Being out hiking in the woods enjoying the scenery with her beloved dogs is another favorite hobby, and also checking out the Pokemon Go scene in whatever city she happens to be in at any given time (coffee and dog leash in hand).

As local travel experts, we know what travelers are looking for when it comes to finding the perfect accommodations for their next trip. To compile our lists, we scour the internet to find properties with excellent ratings and reviews, desirable amenities, nearby attractions, and that something special that makes a destination worthy of traveling for.
One of the best things about the rural areas of the Peach State is the many opportunities we have to stargaze. Our cities are great, but when you’re far from the urban lights, there are few things more magical than looking up at the infinite night sky and seeing all those magnificent stars up above you. One of our favorite places for admiring the night sky in Georgia is Stephen C. Foster State Park. This is an amazing part of the state: not only do you have unprecedented stargazing opportunities that are some of the best in the country, but you also can access the Okefenokee Swamp, one of the great natural wonders of Georgia.
