"Lovely stop on our adventurous journey today!"
"A couple weeks ago, we went to explore the Savannah rapids park and walking trail. We’re new to the area so I decided to stop in the visitor center. I’m so happy I did. What a cool place. I asked for a map and Lynn was more than happy to help. She went above and beyond helping fulfill my request for a map. She gave me so many good suggestions for things to do in the surrounding area. One specific suggestion, was to take our 3 1/2 year old to Reed Creek Nature Park and Interpretive Center. It has become our favorite place to hike and explore, meet new friends, and learn so much from all the helpful educators at the center. I’ve seriously spent hours scouring google for things to do in Augusta and Lynn was way more helpful than google. If you’re seeking info on the area, this is definitely a highly recommended place to start your search."
"I wanted to review the Savannah Rapids Park but it won’t let me so I chose those this is in the same area with the park This whole entire area is amazing. You have trails, playground areas, covered picnic areas, the lock and dam, a bridge let’s you cross the water and there is a trail that leads all the way to downtown. There are also some old historical buildings."
"Ms. Vicky and the rest of the crew there are always so nice and so encouraging to kids. Worth the visit. Very informative."
"stopped in here while visiting augusta. the lady working there was extremely friendly, i could have talked with her for hours! the locks area is a nice place to walk and look around."
