THE STARTING POINT!…read more This was our first stop as we arrived in town this morning. We wanted to pick up some brochures and get some ideas regarding what we should see and do. This office is located in the "college" district and conveniently located very close to many of the sites. So if you are ready to start exploring immediately, this is a great starting point. The employee who works here evidently loves her job as she talked passionately about the local area. Getting to the center is easy because there is great signage directing you to the parking lot but you will need to walk around the front and down the sidewalk to get to the office on Front street. There was a great selection of brochures for Columbus and beyond so you will definitely find information on the history of the city, museums, activities and the performing arts. Welcome to Columbus!

A good display of brochures and information for Georgia, if you're planning on staying in the state. I was not, continuing on through Atlanta and on to South Carolina and then North Carolina. You're about 90 miles to Atlanta from here. Depending on the time of day, that's between 90 and 120 minutes. Good luck! [Review 14238 overall, 1561 of 2020, number 348 in Georgia.]

You can walk as much or as little as you want to the picnic tables that dot the grounds, some sheltered but most aren't (plenty of garbage cans here so please do the right thing) Besides the usual amenities and offerings this rest area boasts an electric car charger, free air, and the Wattway Solar Road Project.

However, the phone number listed on Yelp may be incorrect. I called the store direct by dialing 334-549-9322. The address of the gift shop is 353 South Jackson. Please do yourself a favor and stop by and see Miss Valerie. She is a most accomplished lady.

Stopping here will positively impact your visit to Montgomery. There is so much information here,…read morethat you have to come in and get all the brochures you can. Not only that, but the staff is very knowledgeable and they will propose a route that will touch on all your interests. For a small city, this state capital is massively huge in terms of history and landmarks. There is so much history going on, and things that you had no idea ever happened (or had forgotten), that your stop at this visitor center is almost necessary. And I don't think other visitor centers among tourist areas are as important as this one. Bathrooms, shops, benches, all inside. Sign says it opens at 9 am, but the staff is ready to go before that official time. Walk in.

Yet another well maintained and relaxing rest area welcome center heading east on I-20. The Georgia…read morepeach welcomes you on various signs. There are several covered picnic tables outside to choose from. In the lobby you can find a lottery vending machine, something I haven't seen at any other welcome center. It seems to be Georgia's response to the casinos in the Mississippi states. Bathrooms are decent. Not a paper towel in sight, which is environmentally friendly but the air dryers are the old, slow, push button style. The info center had just closed when I came through, but I noticed they had cornhole boards inside. This is probably a nice, happening place when it's open.

The building looks like a log cabin from the outside. The grounds are landscaped with cute details such as a bird bath, art, bird feeders. The 2 ladies inside were super accommodating to our large group giving each kid a little gift-compose, whistle, etc. Worth the time and effort.
