This Georgia Destination Is A Great Spring Vacation Spot
Yes, we are in the middle of winter, but it feels great to start thinking about the spring season. Daily Passport recently named the most underrated spring vacation destinations and a Georgia spot made the list.
“Instead of following that well-beaten path, why not head to one of the more underrated places in the U.S. to usher in the season,” Daily Passport states, encouraging readers to entertain unique options. The five places they name cover all corners of the country. However, the Georgia destination named was the only one in the southeast region.
Jekyll Island Is The Georgia Spring Vacation Recommendation
Some consider the spring season at Jekyll Island to be the most comfortable. “Temperatures in April and May range from the mid-70s to the low-80s Fahrenheit, and you’ll find plenty of outdoor activities to make the most of it,” Daily Passport states.
If you want to partake in one of the most unique events in Georgia, it also happens in the spring on Jekyll Island. The Turtle Crawl is on April 27. “Race with us on Jekyll Island as we mark the start of sea turtle nesting season on the Georgia coast,” Jekyll Island explains. Each of these annual events also has a significant cause behind it. That is because the Turtle Crawl benefits the Georgia Sea Turtle Center, which centers around rehabilitation, education, and research. Depending on how many miles you are up for, there are four different race options to choose from.
Other enjoyable springtime activities here include tennis, biking, ranger walks, and miles of walking routes. “Whether here for a week or a night, you’ll find Jekyll Island’s abounding peace and serenity,” JekyllIsland.com states.
Lastly, Jekyll Island is in some great company across the country in terms of the most underrated spring destinations. Daily Passport also included Nantucket, Juneau, Alaska, Yellowstone National Park, and Vail, Colorado.
Georgia Destination Named A Best Tiny House Hotel
A recent report by Shermans Travel detailed the 10 best Tiny House hotels in America, and a Georgia destination made the list. “Tiny homes are one of the hottest residential design trends right now,” they explain.
In addition, Realtor.com published a story last year that gave readers a glimpse of what exactly is going on with the Tiny House trend in America. But what is a Tiny House? Typically, they are 100 to 400 square feet. Many of them (though not a requirement) are situated in quieter areas. It is very common to find tiny home communities tucked within nature, in a peaceful and serene setting.
Other common attributes include creative ways to establish storage space and loft beds. They are often energy-efficient simply due to the smaller footprint requiring less utility power.
“If you’re considering the tiny-home lifestyle, take it for a test drive before you hire a builder and go all-in,” Realtor explained. That is another reason why having such Tiny House hotel options is helpful. It gives those who are interested a chance to try it out.
Live A Little Chatt – Rising Fawn, Georgia
Located just 30 miles outside Chattanooga, Live A Little Chatt has three Tiny Houses on the property to stay at. “It’s evident that each was built with love and intention,” Shermans Travel explains. The Old Blue Chair house accommodates up to five guests, while the Shangri-Little and Wandering Gypsy can sleep three people.
Visitors to Rising Fawn Georgia are in close proximity to Cloudland Canyon State Park. That’s where you will find hiking trails and two waterfalls. However, there is also nothing wrong with staying on the hotel grounds to embrace the simple environment around you to unwind fully.
Each of the three options at this Georgia destination that was named in the list of best Tiny House hotels is uniquely different from each other. “We strive to give you the place to find your bliss and live deliberately.” Live A Little Chatt says.
