“One of our favorite GA State Parks! Great pool (additional cost to camping) which was built by CCC in the 30's. Lake for kayaking and canoeing. New bathrooms as well as great new retaining walls and erosion control. Everything about this park says "we care." Lots of trails for walking and practically next door to Callaway Gardens, FDR Little White House, and Wild Animal Safari. Truly a destination vacation. One complaint: i like to go barefoot and the camping sites are cover/paved with mid-sized rocks and its painful to walk on. I cant imagine tent camping here.”

“I frequently visit this store so I'm able to review it fairly. At this store you will find what you've come for, plus much more. They have it all! And what's more than that is the folks that run it. Good, good people. ?”

“I am so glad to finally have a good experience at a small-town gas station! I know it's labeled on yelp as a restaurant, but it's more of a gas station with takeout food, and some picnic tables outside. The COVID-19 precautions were good. Both employees were wearing face masks, and every customer I saw was, even though I don't think there was a mandate, so I was glad to see people being responsible! There were a large variety of inexpensive drinks and foods, one deal was 2 for $1 on Coke products. The restrooms were also very clean and updated! Overall, I had a wonderful experience here!”

“I don't usually leave reviews on gas stations, convenient stores, or what I grew up calling them "corner stores," but I had to make an exception. This corner store restroom had to be one of (if not the) the CLEANEST corner store restrooms I have ever been in! My boyfriend said even the men's restroom was clean! Kudos!”
