“We are excited about the new programs the Douglasville Convention and Visitors Bureau is offering and can’t wait to unveil our new ‘staycation’
ideas. There is no reason why local citizens and people in our region can’t plan a great vacation here in Douglasville,”

As a “New South” postbellum railroad town, Douglasville developed into a dominant commercial district and transformed from the little farming village of Skint Chestnut into a thriving town. Today, Douglasville boasts historic and natural attractions, shopping and culture, and casual and formal dining options, which are all the ingredients for a perfect weekend getaway.
