The North Georgia Mountains are the perfect place for your furry friends
I don’t know about you, but a vacation to the beautiful North Georgia Mountains without my little furry friend, just doesn’t feel right. I would swear that my Yorkiepoo, Chanel, truly knows when we are getting ready to take a trip up to the mountains. Maybe it’s the hiking boots in the suitcase or the handmade walking sticks we purchased in Blue Ridge a few years ago or possibly the bag full of supplies to make s’mores. I couldn’t really tell you what exactly tips her off, but she definitely knows when we are heading to hills. She’ll sleep on my lap most of the way up and then suddenly as we approach the base of the mountain she perks up, pressing that little wet nose of hers on the window, her gaze fixated on the spectacular views all around us as we climb higher and higher up the mountain. As soon as we arrive, she hops out of the car and runs right up onto the deck of our cabin, sniffs all the rocking chairs, runs over to the outdoor fireplace, appears to take a peak at the hot tub, then sits for a second to admire the spectacular view of the Rich Mountains and then bolts back us. It’s almost as if she is saying ” come on you guys, come check this place out, it’s great!” The weekend is always a blur of activities, with plenty of wonderful hiking trails all around the Ellijay and Blue Ridge area and of course a trip to the North Georgia Mountains wouldn’t be complete without going to downtown Blue Ridge, which is one of the most dog friendly towns I have ever been to. Before we know it, it’s time to pack up our car and head back home, Chanel honkers down for the hour and a half drive and we sadly bid the beautiful North Georgia Mountains good-bye ( but not for long, we’ll be back next weekend) .
