White-columned buildings flanked by towering palm trees capture your focus immediately upon arrival in Folkston, Georgia. Travelers staying in hotels near Folkston and residents alike are oft observed sipping sweet tea under slowly undulating fans, as they swing lazily upon rocking chairs shaded by ivy-covered verandas. Time is an afterthought; only the present requires attention. Come and see what discoveries await you in the absence of agendas.
Train whistles fill the air in a calming pattern throughout the day, marking off moments as predictable as the sun’s inevitable rise. Come nightfall, lights spill onto the rail tracks to illuminate the transient freighters on their journeys to parts unknown, drawing train aficionados and travel enthusiasts alike to observe this nightly ritual. Nature’s melodies, performed flawlessly by an invisible wetlands orchestra, pair cricket concertos with the soaring tenors of bullfrogs that are nestled happily in the nearby Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge. Folkston hotels often try to emulate the effortless harmonies with jazzy trios; their plush lounges provide the perfect place to unwind as the sensual sounds surround you late into the night.
When the urge for big-city excitement wells from within, sojourn southwards in one of Travelocity’s rental cars in Folkston toward Jacksonville (or “Jax,” as the locals call it). Fluffy biscuits sandwich tender bits of crispy fried chicken (you’re still in the heart of the South, after all), best washed down with a piquant cup of French-roasted coffee to start your day right. If your Jacksonville exploration lingers long into the evening, opt to slumber away at one of the many hotels in Jacksonville and awaken refreshed and renewed.
