Activities

Thank you for an amazing week! The cabin is so gorgeous and cozy! We made great memories with our children and good friends. We went tubing, hiking to Fall Branch Falls and The Swinging Bridge, Morganton Point, Mercier Orchards, Downtown Blue Ridge, and (of course) Grumpy Old Men Brewing. We all enjoyed ourselves so much and can't wait to come back! Maybe we will return in the winter next year! The kids want to see snow. :) Thanks again! 

An old English proverb says that "all good things must come to an end," and, unfortunately, that is true of our family vacation. The time passed way too quickly, but a good time was had by all, and we have lots of fun memories to last until next year's trip. Of course, we will see each other again before then, but our vacations are really the only times we have a whole week together under one roof. Fallen Timber is just one of several luxurious lodges available from Mr. Gary Knight at Cabin Rentals of Georgia. If you are planning a getaway to the Blue Ridge area, I highly recommend that you visit Gary's beautiful website and check out his gorgeous accommodations. We went to the Ocoee River, close to the Ocoee Whitewater Center, which is about 20 miles from Blue Ridge. The Ocoee Whitewater Center site was constructed for the purpose of holding the 1996 Olympic Canoe and Kayak Slalom competitions. This was the first time these events were held on a natural river and it was appropriate the Ocoee should be chosen as the site as it was already one of the most popular whitewater rivers in the world. And they don't call it "whitewater" for nothing!

What an amazing trip we had! The cabin was perfect! Hearing the river flow below us was so calming! Beautiful scenery and town. Whitewater rafting was great! Ziplining and tubing down the Toccoa was, as well! We had a wonderful trip! Thanks!
