Sometimes you just need a break—but not a full-blown vacation. That’s where a staycation comes in handy! Instead of hopping on a plane, I packed up my pup, Riley, and hit the road for a solo reset trip to Macon, Georgia—just 1 hour and 15-30 minutes from Atlanta. If you’re looking for an easy getaway without the stress of long-distance travel, Macon might just be the move!
Where to Stay: Hotel Forty Five 🏨🐶
When it comes to accommodations, I had to go with @hotelfortyfive, a stylish, dog-friendly spot located right in the heart of downtown Macon. The location is perfect—you can walk to tons of restaurants, bars, and attractions, making it super convenient.
One of the best things about Hotel Forty Five? Their on-site restaurant, @loommacon. The atmosphere is top-tier, and the food? Let’s just say I wasn’t disappointed! If you’re looking for a chill night in, they also have a rooftop bar with light bites. You can sip your drink on the terrace and soak in the stunning views of downtown Macon—it’s a whole vibe!
Monday Night Fun: Where to Go in Macon 🎶🍹💨
If you’re visiting Macon on a Monday night, you already know I found the best spots to turn up without breaking the bank!
🔥 Vibez – This spot goes all the way up on Mondays with $1 hookah and $1 margaritas! Yes, you read that right. The music is good, the crowd is lively, and it’s the perfect way to kick off the night.
🔥 Niche Lounge – After Vibez, make your way to Niche Lounge, where they serve $10 hookah on Mondays and keep the party going late into the night. If you love R&B vibes, this is the place to be—the DJ knows exactly what they’re doing!
Would You Staycation in Macon?
If you’re in Atlanta and need a quick getaway, Macon is an easy, affordable, and fun option. Whether you’re traveling solo (like I did) or planning a little group trip, there’s plenty to explore. And if you have a dog, even better—Hotel Forty Five has you covered!
