OUR TAKE ON COVINGTON
Incorporated in 1822, Covington, Georgia was named for the War of 1812 Hero, General Leonard Covington, leaving the city to grow in the mid 1800’s due to the railroad. Covington may have a colorful history but in more recent years it’s been a filming site for television shows and movies including In the Heat of the Night, the first five episodes of The Dukes of Hazzard, Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives, and My Cousin Vinny. If you like spending time outdoors, Covington, Georgia is a great place to do that. Take the family to an area park for a picnic or play a round of 18 holes at one of two beautifully manicured courses in Covington; Oaks Course or Indian Creek Golf Club, they are both worth a visit.
