Weather

You may think we're a little biased, but the weather in Georgia's Blue Ridge Mountains is simply stunning. Warm days and cool nights during the summer mean a break from hot cities. Spring and autumn offer the most variety in temperatures, with early spring lows frequently dipping to the 30's and highs in the 60's. Late spring brings much warmer temps with highs in the 70's and low 80's. The By the start of autumn our highs peak in the 70's, but even late in the season reach the 60's. During the winter our highs are in the 50's, dropping below the freezing mark at night. Snow blankets our mountains 3 or 4 times a year.
