Two weeks in Atlanta and Athens, GA area

score:3

Accepted answer

I used to live in Warner Robins, Georgia, so here are some suggestions based on my experience and things I found online.

Northern Georgia has a lot of scenic drives around the Appalachian Mountains. Here are some sites for scenic drives:

Stone Mountain in Atlanta has nice history, nature, and views.

Savannah is just outside your 4h range; it's about 4.5 hours away from Athens. Savannah is on the coast and is a really cute town with lots of history.

Quickshot Shooting Range in Atlanta has good reviews, and the bad ones come from people who think it caters too much to newbies, which might be a good thing for you. Governor's Club, a proposed shooting range opening soon, has been in the news for recently getting a liquor license.

Also the Sundial in Atlanta may be a bit touristy but the views are fantastic. The Vortex is also good for its fun decor and atmosphere.

For live music, here's a good list. The Masquerade and The Tabernacle are music venues, but the Tavern is great, though it gets really crowded.
