herons. A lake welcomes anglers and boaters, plus Fido can burn off energy in the dog park. Stay a few nights in a cabin or campsite so you can enjoy the park's golf course as well. Check out this tour of Laura S. Walker State Park on River City Live.
Walking Through History at Jarrell Plantation
Nestled in middle Georgia's red clay hills is Jarrell Plantation, an 1850s estate owned by a single family for more than 125 years. Today, this historic site tells the story of an authentic cotton plantation rather than Hollywood's portrayal. Walking among the many original buildings, you'll learn about the cotton boll weevil, enslaved people who tilled the soil, steam engines, sugar cane production, sawmilling and more. During the holidays, the plantation features traditional decorations and offers tours by reservation. 365 Atlanta Traveler tells a bit more of Jarrell's story.
Parks Open Christmas and New Year's Day
Georgia's State Parks are open every day of the year, welcoming you to enjoy open spaces, peaceful scenery and fresh air. For just $5 parking, go fishing on a tranquil lake, picnic in the sun or hike through quiet forests. Some park offices and historic sites may be closed on holidays so that rangers can spend time with their families as well. For a heart-healthy start to the New Year, go on a First Day Hike a national movement celebrated each January 1st. With more than 600 miles of trails, our parks offer plenty of room to find your own space, or join a small group on a rangerled hike (reservations required).
