Best places: Tourist attractions in Macon County, United States

Camping, whitewater rafting & 600 miles of trails for hiking, biking, horseback riding & more.

👍👍 I was very nervous but both Lucy and Duke made me feel very comfortable and safe. It was a great zip lining experience.

👍👍 AMAZING! Jeremy was very knowledgeable about the water and the area! We got to get out and jump into the river! Got to do awesome rock spins (Jeremy sent it a little too far and launched himself out of the boat, but he was back in the boat in record time… honestly very impressive for a near death ex...

The historical site of a Civil War prison for Union troops, now a memorial for all American POWs.

👍👍 Awesome views after a long day on the AT, but even better views of the stars in the night sky. After watching the sun set and getting my campsite setup I ventured back atop the tower and laid down to view the stars with a moonless sky. This was one of the most epic and surreal experiences in my life...

Roadside waterfall, a popular spot for cliff jumping, swimming & clambering over rocks.

👍👍 💎Absolutely LOVED our experience. 🤩 Was looking for a gem mining experience that was off the beaten path and away from the tourist spots, nestled in nature. Rose Creek Mine delivered. The drive to this place was wonderful and the owners were delightful. Enjoyed digging our own buckets and sifting...

👍👍 We will definitely be going back here soon! This is a genuine find, a real experience and not touristy nonsense. Everyone was so helpful teaching us along the way and taking time to explain. Once your buckets are sifted, you take them to the dark room to see what you have found with UV lights. They...

👍👍 So cute and CLEAN! Beautiful area. So family friendly. The camp hosts are just amazing people with a real heart for what they do.

😐 Looking for some fun excitement this is your place. We did tubing and the screaming coaster. The coaster was so much fun and I highly recommend going there to do this. It is fun and zips around the corners. You do get to control the speed…I on the hand went full speed. This particular coaster op...

👍👍 The most incredible time I've ever had, 4800 ft High simply beautiful. I'm in love

👍👍 This is such a lovely spot to walk around.

Family-owned, roadside destination providing covered gem mining & a shop with locally made goods.

👍👍 This a very nice park. The campground is nice, with well-spaced sites. Some are very spacious. Each site has a picnic table, grill, and fire ring. Several sites are full hook-up. The bathrooms/bathhouse are fairly nice. They were kept very clean. The park has two playgrounds, a splash-pad, some...

👍👍 Okay, I'll admit we were not ready for this when I googled "easy hiking waterfalls," and this came up in the list. I think some of the reviews had the word "easy" in them referring to a few areas along this very moderate to hard trail. We are not actually hikers though, thank goodness I found an o...

👍👍 Attended the Franklin Scottish Festival, and this was an outstanding venue for it. Spacious, and easy walking gounds. As always glad to be back at the Scottish Festival

👍 Beautiful and remote, it was quite a drive down long and winding gravel roads with treacherous drop offs for several miles to arrive. At the top of the Chattooga River, this single lane bridge needed a little TLC to remove the graffiti. Down at the river, there were also two sizeable hornets nests t...

👍👍 Tucked away easy hike to a beautiful waterfall. There is not much foot traffic and the stairs they are implementing will make it easier for the less abled to make their way down to take in the wondrous view. We took our two huskies and the trail was not difficult to navigate at all. With the abunda...
