House Hunt: Romantic Getaways in Blue Ridge

usually features a variety of homes within ZIP codes in and around Powder Springs and Lithia Springs. This week, in honor of Valentine’s Day, we thought you might enjoy exploring romantic getaway homes in Blue Ridge.

Why? It’s close enough of a commute from Atlanta (a straight shot down Interstates 75 and 575), 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, whitewater 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. Once you’ve visited, you will want to go back!

This week, House Hunt features both getaway packages starting at $89 per night and chalets/log homes ranging from $89,000 to $1.5 million.
