SightseeingMuseum of Costume Jewelry
A tiny downtown museum, the only one of its kind in the country, packed with 20th-century costume jewelry from Chanel to Dior. Odd, specific, and genuinely fun.
SightseeingOmni Grove Park Inn Locals’ pick
The historic 1913 stone resort that everyone should see once, even just to wander the Great Hall. Time it for sunset cocktails on the Sunset Terrace, where the whole valley lights up.
