Welcome to Toccoa-Stephens County. Our Toccoa is named for the Cherokee word “Toccoah” meaning “beautiful.” A quaint, historic town, nestled in the foothills of the Southern Appalachian Mountains is a perfect destination for relaxation, exploration and adventure.   

Start your day at the Chamber of Commerce and Welcome Center located in the renovated train depot along with the Historical Society, the County and Currahee Military Museums. The renovated train station downtown is a great place for watching the Norfolk Southern and Hartwell Railroads. We have one of the three AMTRAK stops in Georgia on the Crescent line that runs from New York to New Orleans.  

Stroll down historic Doyle Street. Browse the galleries, boutiques and antique shops, including the Cornerstone Antique Market featuring over 50 dealers of treasures from the early 1800’s. After working up an appetite, stroll to the Bus Stop Restaurant, housed in a former Greyhound Bus station. If regional flavors are more your style, stop by Shirley’s Sole Food Café, which was recently featured on the Food Network.
