A "cottage" on Jekyll Island, GA where wealthy industrial families vacationed |
Small towns are full of charm, character and local culture.
City View takes a tour of some picturesque and unique places to tour.
We say it all the time: take the side roads and secondary
street in order to find the best places to visit.
Just an hour north of Jacksonville ,
Florida , one of the most quaint beach towns
lies nestled on the southeast Georgia
coast. St. Simons and St. Simons Island
are small, quiet little coastal towns packed full of Southern flavor, high
culture and kitchy beach goodies. The drive into the area goes past the famed Jekyll Island
where travelers can take a few hours and enjoy gawking at the mansions from
long-ago industry tycoons. Once off the island, the view from the Jekyll Island
Bridge is a stunning
portrait of the marshes below.
As long as we’re in the South, why not visit Beaufort? Its Antebellum
homes will remind you of Gone with the Wind. Its food will be a gastronomical
delight to your mouth and senses. And its hospitality might just compel you to
relocate or at least visit again.
What Calistoga lacks in style in grace, it makes up for in
charm and fun. There is no stuffiness that some of its neighboring small towns
possesses. Calistoga is about having a good time, eating great food and
enjoying great California
landscape affordably.
The City View television show suggests getting off the main
highways and freeways and finding these little gems to explore.
