Start your day with complimentary breakfast at your area hotel and then head out for some unique stops in and around Troup County. Relax at Refresh Me, a LaGrange spa. At Refresh Me, you will find an expert staff that is trained to give you what you really want: relaxation and results.

Retail therapy is the next order of business as you stroll the quaint downtown streets of LaGrange and investigate stores that rival those in big cities. The White Orchid and Stephen’s Exclusives are side-by-side and irresistible. Just up the street is Bradley’s Antiques. Marketplace at Lafayette Square and Ritzy Roost are also right on the scenic downtown square. Enjoy a glass of sweet tea over lunch at Taste of Lemon. Their traditional southern fare is famous around these parts.

A tour of Hills & Dales Estate is next. This historic estate was the home of textile magnate Fuller E. Callaway Sr. and his family. The estate features the historic Ferrell Gardens created by Sarah Coleman Ferrell well before the Civil War. The Italian villa house, completed in 1916 for the Callaway family, was designed by noted architects Neel Reid and Hal Hentz. Open for tours year-round. Don’t miss the great gift shop. Enjoy a hand-crafted cocktail at C’Sons. Laughing with friends is all the better in this chic restaurant featuring farm-to-table cuisine. To guarantee the freshest food around, the menu changes daily.

Retire to your hotel for some late night conversation.
