Jackson

Surrounded by soaring natural beauty yet just a fifteen-minute drive to I-75 and forty minutes south of Atlanta, Jackson is another pearl in the southern region of the exquisite state of Georgia.

One of its natural wonders is the 1,050-acre High Falls State Park, crowned with the largest waterfall in middle Georgia along with a shimmering 650-acre lake considered one of Georgia’s top fishing spots for hybrid and white bass. For its blend of camping and glamping, a playground, picnic tables, BBQ grills, campgrounds, yurts, and plenty of outdoor amenities, this park is a favorite destination.

Over Jackson Lake’s 4,750 acres, relish the relaxing swath of beach and peaceful coves accessible by boat in one of Georgia’s oldest reservoirs. For hiking, biking, and wildlife sightings, Dauset Trails Nature Center is paradise.

Besides taverns, roadside restaurants, historic buildings, and charming townspeople, you can’t beat the allure of the City of Jackson, established in 1826.
