Finding Comfort

Two public facilities remain on the tour each year. The Massie Heritage Interpretation Center, once Georgia's oldest chartered public school, offers two simple gardens out back--one for the boys and one for the girls--and restrooms inside.

The most popular spot, the Harper Fowlkes House Museum, serves afternoon tea. Tasty cookies, candies, and pastries made in the kitchens of the garden club members delight guests. Before sipping your tea, however, you get an informative guided tour of the 18th-century mansion.
