4 Reasons to Choose A Mountain Getaway This Fall
As summer fades, many people begin thinking about their next getaway. While beach vacations are often the go-to in the colder months, the fall offers the opportunity to embrace a different kind of vacation - a mountain escape. We recently launched Lakeside Lookout in Blue Ridge, Georgia and think it would make the perfect retreat. Here are five reasons why it might just be the perfect fall getaway for you:
1. Fall Foliage
Being in Northern Georgia, you will witness the breathtaking fall foliage. The leaves will change from green to shades of red, orange, and yellow creating a landscape that truly transforms into a picture-perfect scene. Fall hikes or drives through scenic routes also offer unbeatable views.
2. Cozy Cabins
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of staying in a cozy cabin during the fall. While beach vacations are all about sun and sand, mountain cabins provide the perfect setting for a restful retreat. Curling up with a blanket in front of a fireplace or taking a dip in the hot tub are just a few of the activities you may choose to do at Lakeside Lookout.
Cabins also make for the perfect gathering spot for families and friends. After a day of exploring the outdoors, you can settle in for the evening with a movie night or board games while listening to music from a record player.
3. Outdoor Adventures
A vacation to the mountains opens the door to a variety of outdoor adventures. Northern Georgia’s average temperature during the day is around 50 degrees making it the perfect season for hiking, with these cooler temperatures making it easier to enjoy trails. The leaves changing color only add to the experience, creating scenic paths that are perfect for all explorers.
You may also participate in fall kayaking which offers a peaceful and serene way to enjoy the water without the summer crowds. Lakeside Lookout is located right on the Blue Ridge Lake.
4. Bonfires & Stargazing
Lakeside Lookout also has a bonfire pit! Gather around the fire after a long day of hiking or kayaking, toast marshmallows, and share stories.
With less light pollution, mountain locations normally provide incredible stargazing opportunities. On a clear night, you can gaze up at a sky full of stars. The cooler temperatures make bundling up by the fire with blankets and sweaters even more enjoyable, creating the perfect ending to a fall day.
In the fall, a mountain getaway offers a charm that you won’t find at the beach. From the cozy cabins to outdoor adventures and peaceful evenings by the fire, Lakeside Lookout provides the perfect setting for a relaxing autumn. So, this fall, skip the sand and surf—head to the mountains for a getaway you’ll never forget.
