When we visit Dames Ferry we love to eat at the Whistle Stop Cafe which is located nearby in Juliette. This is where the movie Fried Green Tomatoes was filmed. The Georgia Historic Site Jarrell Plantation is nearby and worth a visit. I believe it is open from Thursday to Sunday. Macon is about 30 minutes away and has lots of things to do. If you are a music fan, check out the Allman Brothers museum at the Big House. 30 minutes in the opposite direction is Jackson. Buckners is a family-style restaurant that is delicious. Hope you have a great visit.
Thank you so much for taking the time to do this ❤
You are welcome. So glad you found it helpful.
Hi
