With cemeteries scattered through the countryside and old records sometimes lost in the archives of local courthouses, discovering the family history is a worthy hobby. Local cemeteries include some unnamed or almost forgotten in addition to those with rich histories.
Family reunions are a way of life in the South. They go with "Dinner on the Ground" at country churches, homecoming celebrations, community cemeteries, and Sunday dinners.
We cater to families seeking small scale, wholesome pleasures. Our camps and campgrounds are small, but they often have long, successful traditions in settings that take advantage of our natural resources and community values. Our town is small that you won't get lost as you immerse yourself in its interesting past. Our local personalities are real, not made up to fit a tourist town's theme; get to know them.
