I'm not big into aviation but my Dad was an Air Force lifer and I'm so glad that I decided to go with them. It was a rainy day so we only saw the main building but that still took almost 2 hours. There is SO much to see here. You move at your own pace and take as much time as you'd like. I think it might be nice if they offered tours since it's three stories, but it's definitely not hard to figure out and you aren't missing things if you don't go in a certain order. My favorite was the third floor where you could look outside and see all of the air planes. (There is no longer a cafe up there. There used to be!) We had all age ranges from 75 to 11. I think everyone enjoyed it. The gift shop was really cool and I was able to pick up some "souvenirs" from my home town. We did not encounter many employees except when we entered the building. That lady was super friendly and helpful. There was plenty of parking and this is FREE...so please check it out!

There is a lot to see. The first entrance has 3 floors to visit and there is 2 more hangars to go and see all the old planes and on top of that there were multiple planes across the property where we can drive by and visit everything. I would recommend to visit this place where you have a full day. On a Sunday it's open only from noon to the 5pm. Over all it's a great experience and there are friendly veterans who could help you where you want to go and any questions that want answers for it. Will come back again for sure with bigger group.

I really enjoyed the tour of Flannery O'Connor's farm. Even if you aren't a fan of the Southern…read moreauthor, it's worth a visit because the grounds are beautiful. The farm is also pet-friendly with the exception of inside the house. Tours start at 10am Tuesday through Saturday and 2pm on Sunday. My tour lasted about 40 minutes. The farm is closed on Mondays. You park next to the Interpretative Center where you purchase tickets in the gift shop. They have a small museum-like exhibit displaying Flannery's dresses and glass figurines. There is a short uphill walk from the Interpretative Center to the house and they have a golf cart available for those who do not wish to walk there. The tour meets at the back of the house. There are a couple of steps you have to walk up to get inside so it is not wheelchair friendly. The tour guide was informative and it's really interesting in part because so much of her furniture and belongings are still there. I would say two hours to three hours would be the perfect amount of time to take the tour and see the outbuildings and fenced in peacock pen. I would definitely return again to let my dogs explore the nature trail and to have a picnic next to the pond. Afterwards I also drove by the house where Flannery's mother grew up and where Flannery lived briefly as a teenager at 311 West Greene Street in downtown Milledgeville. Flannery is buried at Memory Hill Cemetery. I can't wait to visit Flannery's childhood home on 207 East Charlton Street in Savannah.

There are two reasons to visit here. One is to see a historic farmhouse kept in the style of the…read more1960s. The other is because you are interested in Flannery O'Connor. o'Connor lived and worked here between 1951 and death in 1964. Her mother left the house and moved into town after O'Connor's death. As a result, the house is pretty much in the condition that it was when she was living and riding here. O'Connor's stories and novels evoke Southern culture, and interweave complex ideas about religion, education and human relationships. However, this isn't the place to do a literary review. I think anyone who has been enchanted by O'Connor's writings would find a visit to Andalusia fascinating. As for the rest of you, I would say it's a good stop for an hour just to walk around the grounds. And it's free, except for the house tour, which is quite reasonably priced. The visitor center also has clean restrooms.

This is one of Augusta's most rewarding museums, a place that manages to tell a 12,000‑year story…read morewithout ever feeling overwhelming. The Augusta Museum of History is the city's oldest historical institution, founded in 1937 and now the only accredited museum in the Central Savannah River Area, which gives it a level of curatorial depth you can feel as you move from room to room. The museum's signature exhibition, Augusta's Story, begins with the region's earliest Indigenous cultures, including artifacts from the Stallings Island people, and then moves through the Colonial Era, the antebellum period, the Civil War, and the city's twentieth century reinventions. You see everything from slave‑made pottery to a 12‑pounder bronze Napoleon cannon tube and an 1869 steam fire engine tied to the devastating 1916 fire that reshaped parts of the city. It's a rare chance to see Augusta's full arc laid out in a way that feels comprehensive. The museum also excels at capturing the city's cultural identity. The James Brown gallery is a highlight, celebrating the life and global influence of the "Godfather of Soul" with photographs, stage pieces, and biographical context that show how deeply he shaped Augusta's modern identity. Several media options to watch him performing and to hear other leading figures discuss his influence. The golf and Masters Tournament section offers a thoughtful look at how the sport became intertwined with the city's reputation, and the medical history exhibit includes an impressive wall of antique medicine bottles that gives you a sense of how local healthcare evolved over generations. One of the most enjoyable parts of the visit is the Transportation Corridor, which brings Augusta's mobility story to life with a 1914 steam locomotive, a 1917 steam trolley, a reconstructed 1930s gas station, and a range of early vehicles. Walking through the restored streetcar and stepping into the rail car for photos adds a tactile, playful element that balances the more traditional exhibits. Upstairs, the museum's radio history exhibit traces the rise of WBBQ, one of Augusta's most influential stations, including a "then and now" section installed for its 60th anniversary. There are also exhibits on local law enforcement and firefighting, as well as a gallery of regional legends that highlights entertainers, athletes, writers, and other notable Augustans. The entire museum is comfortably explored in about two hours, which makes it an easy and rewarding stop whether you're spending a full day downtown or pairing it with the Morris Museum of Art or the Riverwalk. It's the kind of place that leaves you with a clearer sense of Augusta's character, from its earliest settlements to the voices and industries that shaped the city you see today. Don't miss it.
