Jacksonville

Given its location just a few minutes from Lake Jacksonville, it's no surprise that the Cherokee County city of Jacksonville offers lots of outdoors activities like swimming, boating, or fishing. See exotic species, such as antelopes and emus, from the comfort of your car at the Cherokee Trace Drive-Thru Safari. If you’re thinking of a shopping expedition, hunt for bargains from 40+ dealers at the Treasure Cove Antique Mall. Due to the prominence of its tomato industry, Jacksonville is nicknamed the tomato capital of the world, and if you visit at the beginning of June, you can witness the tomato eating contest and sports tournaments at the annual Tomato Fest. No matter your reason for visiting Jacksonville, let Suiteness help to plan your stay.
