Thomasville is a picturesque south Georgia town. Tiny, but charming. The primary attraction of the city is its beautiful plantation home: Pebble Hill. This trip was my second visit to Pebble Hill, but it definitely won't be my last. I love walking through the house and learning the history of the home, but, even more than that, I just enjoy walking the grounds and exploring the gardens, barn, and sprawling oak trees.

After we spent a few hours touring and meandering, we headed into town to grab a quick lunch. We had already planned out exactly where we were going to eat, but, because we spent so much time at the plantation, we missed the 2:00 lunch time deadline for most of the downtown restaurants. It was such a blessing in disguise, however, because we ended up eating at a place called George & Louie's. It was complete perfection!
Our appetizer: fried green tomatoes
Mom and I both ordered the fried shrimp with cheese grits
If you ever find yourself in southwest Georgia, I highly recommend stopping by Thomasville to look around. There were also, what looked like, a few really cute downtown boutiques, but we didn't have a chance to visit any. I'm planning another trip back really soon!
looks lovely! Glad you had a fun visit with your Mom:)
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was gorgeous and so much fun!!
Deletethis is absolutely gorgeous!! seriously, i will have to make a trip out there!
ReplyDeleteI have never been to Georgia (unless you count a layover in Atlanta, which I do not). But have always wanted to visit. This looks like fun and so cute/quaint/not sure how to describe it ha
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place. I would love to have these raised garden beds I can just see my garden growing there lol.
ReplyDeleteI love Thomasville! When I was very little, my family lived and farmed in Boston, which is just a little East of Thomasville.
ReplyDeleteI love visiting large plantation homes like this. They're just so majestic. And I just love all the history of them and imagining what it may have been like to live in a home like that.
ReplyDeleteLOVE Thomasville GA such a great small southern town! G&L is one of my favorite places that Ive eaten there too!
ReplyDeleteThomasville is so wonderful! My best friends parents own a B&B just a few blocks off of downtown, and I love visiting in the summer. The shops are great to wander around...everything just exudes southern charm.
ReplyDeleteIt is such a perfect little town! I wish I had had more time to stroll through downtown...I'm hoping to get the chance to do that over the summer. Love that place!
