Morgan County, Georgia
Morgan County is nestled in central Georgia. Madison is the county seat and is known for its antebellum architecture. This isn’t just another sleepy Southern town. The county’s roots stretch back to 1807.
Farmland dominates the landscape with rolling hills and hardwood forests. Lake Oconee’s shores are great for boating and fishermen. The Georgia Safari Conservation Park adds a wild touch, bringing exotic animals to the heart of farm country.
