Why This One Tiny Town Is Secretly The Best Place In Georgia

Let’s make 2018 the year of the small town! While most people who visit Georgia tend to stay in the bigger cities and never roam out to the rural parts, we wanted to give those tiny towns throughout our great state some much deserved recognition.
