Explore the Georgia most tourists never see, including the Day Butterfly Center in Pine Mountain, Col. Oscar Poole's Pig Hill of Fame in Ellijay, and a toenail that might very well have belonged to Elvis at the Loudermilk Boardinghouse Museum in Cornelia.

From the Back Cover
Tired of the same old tourist traps? Take the road less traveled and discover the hidden attractions, unique finds, and unusual locales other guidebooks just don't offer. Off the Beaten Path® features the things you'd want to see-if only you knew about them! From the best in local dining to quirky cultural tidbits, you'll say over and over again: "I didn't know that!"
Whether you're a visitor or a local looking for something different, let Georgia Off the Beaten Path show you the Peach State you never knew existed. Hear the Gregorian chants of Benedictine monks at Rockdale County's Monastery of the Holy Ghost; walk through an 8,000-square-foot, glass enclosed "rain forest"-America's first natural attraction of its kind; or cheer on competitors in the watermelon seed-spitting or hubcap-hurling events at the Redneck Games. So if you've "been there, done that" one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.

5.0 out of 5 stars
A good little inexpensive guide,
This review is from: Georgia Off the Beaten Path, 6th: A Guide to Unique Places (Paperback)
I used this guidebook recently for a brief visit to Georgia. It guided me to Okefeenokee swamp park, the town of Brunswick, and the Ocmulgee National Monument. I will use the guide again on my next trip.
The guidebook divides Georgia into seven regions and lists interesting places to stay, old-time restaurants, museums and art galleries, annual events, and assorted trivia. Sidebars recount tidbits of Georgia history and contain delectable recipes for regional dishes such as Brunswick stew and seafood. This guidebook is light and small and well-organized and all you need to find your way to interesting spots, especially if you're the sort of person who's allergic to shopping malls and cooker-cutter hotels and restaurants Smallchief
