Stops between Ohio and Villages

[jdsl1998]

We drive between our homes. Two favorite places to stop.

Git-N-Go Market and Gas in TN at mile marker 122....Clean, good food (odd, I know) and place to sit outside with dog.

We're Nuts at eh Vienna/Pitts GA exit mile marker #109, about a mile off the road, open 7 days a week (8 to 8) FANTASTIC nuts, chocolates, fruit (when in season) and ice cream. VERY CLEAN! Lots of samples!

If you go to these, let me know.
If you have other places you stop to eat, use the restrooms, sleep or other ideas, good OR bad, let the rest of us know.
Until we retire, we'll see you on the road!

If you have never stopped at the Kentucky Horse Park, I highly recommend it. Take the Newtown Pike exit which is the last Lexingon exit and it just a few miles north off of I-75. Spend an hour or two driving around the park, or half a day on the tour. Very beautiful! Breath taking! Several Kentucky Derby winners in retirement there.

We're from Beavercreek not too far from Wilmington. Although we don't make the trip very often since we moved to Hadley in The Villages, when we did make the trip we followed along in the book called "Along I-75" . It tells you about each exit between Michigan and Florida. Check it out! It's a favorite of ours.

When the kids were little...and the kids are now 46 and 48, we stopped for lunch or dinner at the New Perry Inn in Perry, Georgia, on our way from Ohio to Miami for our summer vacation. They served mouth watering Southern food in a lovely traditional atmosphere and cloth napkins, and plantation atmosphere, small but nice. They are still doing it, and we stopped last year, NOT quite as nice, but still lovely and yummy, but we all get a little older. Worth a stop...but takes an hour.

We stopped a couple of times in Berea, Ky...they used to have a gift shop just off of I-75 that sold works done by the students at Berea College. The town is really neat too, reminded me of Mayberry :).

We love Berea. The Inn there has wonderful food. The men must wear a jacket but they lend you one if you don't have one. The food is really, really good.

I used to come to Florida every year with my parents from near Circleville Ohio. We would stop in Berea at the Inn you all mentioned. It was run by the college students. Gracie, we also stopped stayed at the New Perry Inn and you are right about the southern cooking. We used to take three days to get down here - before I-75.
