When choosing accommodations for your vacations, it’s a good idea to make sure you’re sleeping close to where your destination is. After all, we all have limited time for recreation: you don’t want to waste it having to deal with traveling to the sights you want to see! One great way to combine your overnight stay with your destination is to stay in a state park lodge in Georgia. Amicalola Falls State Park and Lodge is one of our favorite getaways. The views are magnificent and you can stay right on-site!
