0 Guest BillAdams Report post Posted February 21, 2012 You are going to need more than one stop as that's a bit over a 1000 mile trip (depending upon where in GA). The obvious route will bring you down 95S for about 1/2 the trip including 95S through the NYC area. I highly recommend that you take a longer route and avoid this area if at all possible. There are several alternate routes to the East and West and I recommend you ask for suggestions on that part of the trip. Your first stop would likely be in the Philadelphia area or South so if you want to do some touristy things you should be looking in the Philly area. The next stop puts you in the Richmond, VA area or with a bit of a detour you could be in Williamsburg. I don't know if you are looking for tourist stops or just camping to get you where you want to go as fast as possible. Your next stop is somewhere between Greensboro and Charlotte and then into an unknown central GA location. Let us know a bit more about what you are looking for, where you are actually going, what you want to do along the way, etc. and others will likely be of much more help than I have been so far.

0 BillyM Report post Posted February 21, 2012 I have traveled this route from northern MA often. One concern that you may have is finding a campground open. One that I have used frequently is Cherryhill Park in College Park MD. It is about 375 miles, but open year round. North of that you may have to locate a Walmart or Sams for the overnight. South of this Fayetteville NC, Lazy Acres is a nice location about 250 miles. Whatever and wherever you stay enjoy your travels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 sasmit8 Report post Posted February 21, 2012 Thanks for the replies to my post. We plan to leave next Sunday-and going to visit relatives in Brunswick GA. So just need a few places to stop for the night. Would like to go away from NY City and Washington DC if possible with out getting into the mountains this time of year.

0 BillyM Report post Posted February 21, 2012 I-84 to Scranton PA. Then I-81 south to I-66 to home or stay on I-81 to Virginia and turn on I-64 to Richmond. Use the 295 bypass around Richmond and merge into I-95 south. This route is a bit longer and avoids the major metro areas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
