Why Georgia?
Our summers are definitely hot…. but nothing beats the autumn leaves in North Georgia, the mild winters with minimal snow or the blooming azaleas and cherry blossoms in the spring.
Georgia truly has four seasons.
Whether you enjoy hiking our Blue Ridge Mountains, watching the Braves or Falcons play, exploring our coastal islands, or discovering our history in Savannah, we hope Georgia is on your mind.
