Fall Getaway Guide

A visit to LaGrange isn’t complete without a visit to the storied Callaway Memorial Tower. Modeled after the Campanile of St. Mark’s Square in Venice, Italy and completed in 1929, the tower is a special spot for viewing some of autumn’s most vibrant colors. Pack a picnic and enjoy the spacious lawn while you take in the scenery.

The shores and surrounding forests of West Point Lake are a haven for a wide variety of native and migratory birds. Grab your binoculars and find a peaceful spot at a lakeside park to enjoy the serene sights and sounds of Georgia’s abundant wildlife.
