One spot in Georgia managed to make the list.
According to the report, Millionaire Village in the coastal destination of Jekyll Island is among the country's hidden gems that you just have to see. The historic district of Jekyll Island got its rich nickname thanks to its legacy of housing some of America's wealthiest families, per the town's website.
Here's what Stacker had to say:
"Located off the coast of Georgia, Jekyll Island was originally built as a lavish getaway for some of America's wealthiest citizens, including the Rockefellers and the Pulitzers. These days, it's open tot he public, where you can tour historic homes and indulge in nature — 5% of Jekyll Island is intentionally kept wild to foster local flora and fauna.
