This roadside fall and easily accessible makes a nice lunch spot. It's a short walk on a easy flat path in the wooded area and it's definitely a place worth finding to spend an hour melting away with the sound of the rushing water!

While you are in the area, explore nearby nature trails such as High Shoals Falls or Mill Creek Falls. If you are looking for more advanced level with an astonishing mountain views, check out Brasstown Bald Trail or Miller Trek.

Wayne and Judy Jolley, the owners of Cabin Coffee Co. fell in love with the mountains of North Georgia several years ago and their goal was to bring a warm, comfortable place for the community to gather, and enjoy time with coffee and food.

This local ice cream shop Blazin' Scoops is located in Hiawassee, GA and they have more than enough flavors of ice cream to keep your sweet tooth satisfied! Out of the 24 different flavors, my favorite was the Strawberry Chessecake but the Salted Caramel Brownie was a close second. 

This traditional coffee shop centers more around community than caffeine! When it comes picking the perfect coffee beans, Artisan Bean Co in Brasstown, NC is their choice. Their beans are perfectly roasted by hand and constantly seeking out the best coffee bean sources around the world.

Between super-friendly staff to live music performance, it's a perfect hangout spot for everyone. Come and support your local coffee shop at Abide Coffee as they build connections between growers, roasters, and customers.
