Rachel M. asked:My family (myself, hubby, 2 sons) will be staying in a cabin in Suches for 4 nights in June. Coming from Knoxville, TN area. It will be our first time visiting the Blue Ridge area and we are looking forward to it very much!! We plan on spending a majority of our time at the cabin, but what else is there to see or do? What are some must see places or activities to do within an hour drive of Suches or near Blue Ridge? Where can we drive or take a short hike to an awesome mountain view? What are some water related activities we could do to keep cool in the summer heat? (Our cabin also sits directly on the Toccoa River) Any festivals or similar events going on anywhere the weekend of June 24-26? What about a farmers market or a flea market nearby? Or a good place to stop for a meal? Sorry about all the questions. Google isn't giving me much info so I figured I'd ask the locals. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks!! :)Buffy T. replied:Hi Rachel. There are some good waterfalls within pretty close proximity to where you will be staying. Please go to www.blueridgemountains.com, which is the Fannin County Chamber of Commerce website. On the left side of the page, look for a button labeled 'Self Guided Tours'. Those are some awesome maps! You will find waterfalls, hiking, a map of downtown, driving tours and more. Also, as mentioned, the Swinging bridge is great but be aware that the road getting there is very rough and is being worked on. There's probably an advisory on the chambers page. If you would like anymore information you are welcome to pm me. I'd be happy to help!Michele S. replied:Check out the Blue Ridge Chamber of Commerce page.John M. replied:The Fannin County Chamber of commerce has wonderful day driving trips on maps and a wealth of other info. Enjoy

Debra S. asked:Hi all, hubby and I are planning to move to Ellijay or Blue Ridge, or somewhere in between. My mother, who is 81, just asked me if there are any senior communities in the area. I don't remember seeing any, but thought you all might know of something for seniors. Any ideas?Carolyn N. replied:It's Blue Ridge Assisted Living and Memory Care and is projected to open this September. Phone numbers are 706-632-5680 or toll-free 800-899-6867.

John S. asked:Who are the local experts when it comes to long term cabin rentals in Blue Ridge?? Let me rephrase this a little bit, need to know who are the folks to go to to rent a cabin for 1 or 2 years in a row, long term. We want to eventually buy one but we would rather "test the waters" first by renting. This will give us the chance to check the area out, decide where we eventually want to settle into and get to know the local folks!! And pet friendly is a must, 2 small dogs, 3 cats,lol.Keith J. replied:John, almost every reputable cabin rental company is listed on the Fannin County Chamber's website, blueridgemountains.com

Jessica M. asked:Ok, all the wise and wonderful people on this page, I could use some suggestions! My mother is coming to visit for several weeks, and I need places we can go, things we can see and visit around Forsyth County, even down to Atlanta. Suggestions of inexpensive places to eat would be great,too! My mom is semi mobile, and has moderate cerebral palsy, so anything physically strenuous is probably not an option, although she does get to ride in a wheelchair if a lot of walking is involved. Any input is appreciated!Mandy G. replied:When is she coming? If you drive North on Hwy 19 to Hwy 5 through the Blue Ridge mountains it's really pretty this time of year. There are lots of lookout stops and even a few places to grab a bite to eat along the way. Could probably get away with the cost of a tank of gas and she could sit majority of the time. Good luck! http://www.blueridgemountains.com

Sharon R. asked:Coming to Blue Ridge on vacation at the end of July, any recommendations on places to stay, motels or cabins? Also, things to do?Tom S. replied:Sharon Rauton - I still haven't done everything there is to do, we've lived here over 7 years (we do a lot of the same things over and over). I would start your planning by going to the Chamber's web site www.blueridgemountains.com they have the most complete listings of everything to see and do.
