Planning your trip
I know how stressful and time consuming it can be to plan a vacation, so I have done it for you. I will give information on what to do in the Summer, Winter, and Fall. In the Spring, just combine some of the summer and winter activities (depending on the weather.)
I will give you information on restaurants, local antique stores, flea markets, supermarkets, museums, and all the activities.
Travelling to the mountains will be so effortless that you will want visit it every year. For the past 10 years, my husband and I have spent every holiday and summer vacations in the Tusquittee Valley along with our two children.
- Summer, Fall, Winter, and Spring Activities
Winter Vacation: Skiing is very inexpensive in North Carolina, comparing to other states. I will share with you where to ski. Tubing is also fun for children and adults. Hiking is quite popular in the winter also. Take a train ride to Tennessee from Blue Ridge. What to do in the Winter Season: 1. Hike in the crisp mountain air at Jackrabbit State Park (10 min drive) Nantahala Wilderness Area or Fires Creek Wildlife Area 2. Go Christmas or antique shopping. 3. Enjoy the Festivals in the Historic town squares of Hayesville, NC, or Hiawasee, GA. 4. Wine tastings a local wineries (5 minutes drive). 5. Register for a class at the renowned John C. Campbell Folk School. Learn about blacksmithing, woodcarving, jewelry making, glass blowing, quilting, or traditional dance. Participate in the Tuesday night square dance or enjoy a Friday night bluegrass concert. 6. Visit the Historic Biltmore Estate, world famous for its history as well as seasonal trees and decorations. |

Fall Vacation: In the fall, the leafy foliage takes its most spectacular hues and shades. The leaves will start changing at the highest elevations. It usually occurs during the month of October, usually mid to late month, but it depends on your elevation. Millions of colored leaves become an unforgettable sight and a must-see in the Appalachian Mountains.
The Blue Ridge Parkway has east and west facing slopes. The elevation varies from 650 feet (James River, Virginia) to over 6,000 feet (Mt. Pisgah in North Carolina.)

Another option is to have a barbecue or a picnic by the rushing creek and catch some craw fish. Spend an afternoon at the flea market in Murphy and other local stores to find some antique treasures. |
Go Tubing down the river in Helen, Ga (40 min. away) and enjoy the German food and deserts from local restaurants. |
Nothing in nature is more fascinating than seeing a firefly for the first time, also known as lightning bugs showing off where hundreds of not thousands of individual lights blink on and off first randomly, and then in unison. It is also most impressive when they all go dark for a few seconds.
