Tucked in between Athens and Madison, Oconee County is a truly beautiful piece of rural Georgia. Many visitors find it pleasant to simply drive around on the backcountry roads admiring the scenery, but there's a wide range of other things to see and do as well, including historical sites to tour, quaint shops to browse, and even an antique trail. There are also plenty of delicious eateries, particularly in the town of Watkinsville, and you can always stop at one of the county's many U-Pick farms if you want to pick up some fresh produce to bring home.
