While major cities are unique unto their own, it really is the small towns that pull this state together to make it as Southernly delightful as it is.

But the best small town in Georgia is a quaint one full of history and charm that is impossible to drive through without stopping. Check it out.
Toccoa in Georgia is considered “The Heart of Northeast Georgia”.
This small town is nestled against the foothills of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, which is where it gets its small mountain charm.
If you're looking for things to do in Toccoa, just walk down Main Street and you'll find a multitude of specialty shops and art galleries to check out.
