Romantic Getaway Homes in Blue Ridge

In lieu of East Cobb open houses this weekend, we're featuring some mountain retreats ideal for you and your Valentine.

House Hunt usually features a variety of homes within East Cobb zip codes. This week, in honor of Valentine’s Day, we thought you might enjoy exploring romantic getaway homes in Blue Ridge.

Why? It’s only about an hour away, close enough to commute Atlanta, yet nestled in the private and beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains in Fannin County. Because of its proximity and convenience, more people are gravitating to Blue Ridge and making a “lifestyle” move.

Rich history, lakes, mountains, hiking trails, white water rafting, year-round festivals and the Blue Ridge Scenic Railroad add to its unique charm. It’s also a great location for a romantic weekend getaway, family retreat, investment or rental property. To experience Blue Ridge firsthand, take advantage of the Valentine’s Getaway Packages being offered right now.
