    I stopped here after hours so the crowds were long gone and this place for me was more about taking a driving break than exploring the informational brochures displayed by the tourist bureau. I've traveled across Georgia many times and these rest areas are something I always take advantage of. I'm sure there's a lots more to learn about Georgia but it wasn't on my agenda this evening, so just finding a spacious area to park the RV and complete my walk around inspection was much appreciated. No matter your schedule when your GPS or Apple Watch tells you it's time to take a driving break or it's time to stand that's good advice and hopefully this place is in your windshield and not in your rear view mirror...

    Welcome to Georgia.

    My dad and I were heading back to Myrtle Beach from Florida after some important family matters and stopped into the Georgia Welcome Center that is on the side of those going in that direction. Its a clean space and the staff is very friendly. We were not stopping to order any snacks as we had some stuff from the hotel and were consuming that before getting back on the road. These stops are great to stretch ones legs and observe any additional sites they might have. Inside there was a guitar on display and outside a pretty cool torpedo as one of the war memorials. My whole time spent was under 20 minutes since there was a long way to go but I must encourage that if you are on a long trip that you make use of places like this. Travel safetly my friends.

    When traveling, it is important to have clean and safe rest stops. This location is an excellent choice. Many amenities available including a clean location for the pups.

    This is a well done rest area and welcome center just north of Jacksonville as you cross over from Florida into Georgia. Lots of brochures with local attractions, information about local hotels, plenty of rest rooms and, for a nice change, a shady area where I was able to park the car for a half-hour snooze! Picnic tables, dog walking areas, lots of trees. A nice spot to take a rest from driving on the Interstate. [Review 10929 overall, 701 of 2019.]

    Everything you could want in an information center, without the free juice! We still love our FL welcome information center with its free juice samples. This welcoming information center had personable, friendly people, offering a plethora of brochures for everyplace imaginable in GA, as well as maps and discount coupons. The bathrooms are plentiful, with three areas to wash up and dry (no towels, just hot air). Thirsty? There's a water fountain. Looking for a photo op? Pose in the postcard to be picture perfect! If you like submarines, you can pose with the torpedo outside. Then head over to the submarine museum in St. Marys. Outside are picnic areas with covered shelters and places to stretch your legs. This is a very welcoming information center & rest stop!

    Have driven up and down I95 so many times and never stopped here. I'm sure in years past this rest area was quite popular - as they have a lot of picnic tables, but today - with the virus it's just sad. The place is empty, as my pictures show.

    Very old in here and not much to see. The place is super old and the one half of it was closed on a Friday afternoon as we were passing through.

    A nice and functional welcome center just north of the State line This facility is located on the east side of I-95 just about a mile past the Florida-Georgia border. The turnoff has a wide sweeping turn to the right as you exit. You pass by about 10 covered tables in a grassy area with numerous shady trees before you reach the welcome center and the parking area. There is parking directly on 3 sides of the building for the cars and farther out, but directly in front, for the larger vehicles. The center has obligatory restrooms. They were good and clean. The visitor's center portion of the building consists of a large room with a small seating area with a TV, a counter, and various racks with brochures of attractions for the different areas around the state. There was a pot for free coffee. There was nobody at the counter to ask questions but there were plenty of brochures and maps around the wall. There was a very nice torpedo on the grass outside the building to pay homage to the Kings Bay Naval base. Very nice display. Getting back on the road going north is very easy although it goes under an overpass which is different from most visitor center exits/entrances. Overall, this was a very nice, functional, welcome center. A good place to stop if you want a driving break as you are headed north into Georgia.

    State line welcome centers are the best! It was super busy yesterday! Bus loads of kids, campers and truckers galore and plenty of traveling families! So many doggies getting walked! Bathrooms were clean and plentiful. Hubby grabbed a new map for the car! We got out and walked around for 10 minutes to stretch! I have stopped at this welcome center so many times! Can't even count how many pictures I have of the torpedo out front!!!

    Thanks for making me feel welcome Georgia Visitors Center! We took the auto train down to see mom for Thanksgiving weekend. Now we're driving back to New York and saw a sign for the Georgia Visitors Center. Not much to see here other than a bathroom break and a nice looking lobby. They also had a full size poster board of Daryl from The Walking Dead? I mean, Saturday Night Fever was big in New York, you don't see Tony Manero posters all over Brooklyn. Hey, it makes the Georgia Visitors Center happy to mention the TWD starts in GA. Keep rockin'!

    Every state has their visitors centers, some of which are pretty good and others that amount to little more than public toilet. The Georgia Visitors Center, I'm happy to say is one of the better ones. The restrooms are clean, the surrounding grounds clean, interesting in that has some rather unusual though seemingly out of place items like a World War II torpedo. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and the place is loaded with all kinds of informative promotion information nicely broken down by region so it's easy to find that which applies to the areas you might be visiting. Also, when I was there, offered a free taste of Georgia Peach Cider, which was really a nice touch for the place.

    Georgia Visitor Information Center on I-95 North in Kingsland is a convenient place to stop for a restroom, drink, or snack that is easy to access and be in and out and on your way when you need it. I like the design of everything and there always seems to be good parking available. I like that they have a torpedo and boat outside that are fun to climb on.

    It seems nice, it had a nice roomy picnic area and you could go inside the building. It could be a little bit cleaner.

    It's a rest area. Could have been cleaner. Was open as a rest facility. The visitor area was closed. It was a bit creepy.
