Hyw 27 Chattanooga South to I10

Thanks everyone for the input. Looks like that's the way the wife and I will go.

ress's post is good. Take the bypass around the east side of Rome. In fact take I-75 to Calhoun and GA-53 to Rome. You'll miss all the mess coming out of Chattanooga and the miles of 45-25 thru Summerville GA. I would say the slow spots are LaGrange and Carrollton, neither has a bypass. Get fuel in Columbus, you should make Tallahassee with no issue, less than 200 miles.
Also good COE parks on West Point Lake near LaGrange. Small city campground in Colquitt, GA. very small and right on US-27.

I live in Carrollton on US-27 just west of Atlanta. US-27 is a great alternative to I-75, but I do not want the secret to get out. It was expanded to a 4 lane divided highway back in the 90's. All rural areas are 65 miles per hour. The only slow spots are going thru Rome and LaGrange. Also, you get on I-185 between LaGrange and Fort Benning, on the south side of Columbus. South of Columbus to Bainbridge is very rural, watch your fuel in this area. a great stopping point is between LaGrange and Columbus, the Pine Mountain area with FDR State Park,Callaway Gardens, and Warm Springs, where FDR had his little White House. South of Columbus is Kolomokie State Park. It is a very interesting place with a very large Indian Mound and museum. Fort Benning is very interesting also with the National Infantry Museum, it is awesome.

It is a good route. Have taken it many times. No shortage of fuel stops. Beats the interstate and you will not have to deal with Atlanta traffic at all.

Looks like an interesting route. I avoid Atlanta by taking 441 when we go to FL. 27 might be slower but it gives you more opportunity to stop at the little mom and pop places. If you stay on 27 it connects to 19/98, I would stay on that until you cut across into central FL. instead of picking up 10.
