I agree with this one.
I only read the first page of responses, so if someone already mentioned, oh well.
Natchitoches, LA is not close to Baton Rouge, but is a cool little town. Great romantic weekend spot. It's the town where Steel Magnolias was filmed, and you can even stay in the main home where the movie was filmed since it is now a B&B. The Christmas lights festival is great, but really crowded. Go to Lasione's and eat some Natchitoches meat pies.

The only ones from Alabama that are must visits are Fairhope/Point Clear, Mentone/Little River Canyon, Orange Beach, and Huntsville.
Fairhope - Just a really neat town on Mobile Bay with good restaurants, antique shops, arts, golf, etc
Orange Beach - Not as nice as Destin/30-A but a solid beach town and a lot of fun during the summer. Excellent place if you own a boat.
Little River Canyon - Very pretty area with impressive views along the rim of the canyon.
Huntsville - Mostly for the Space and Rocket Center which has some really cool exhibits and ride simulators.
