Rainy Days in the North Georgia Mountains

It’s raining, it’s pouring, but it doesn’t have to be boring! Who says you can’t enjoy a rainy day? It’s always nice to nap in the warmth of your cabin while the trickling rain peacefully sings you to sleep, cuddle up by the fire with a good book or play Scrabble in the cabin with the family. But we understand that some days you just want to stretch your legs and get out of the house. Luckily here at Morning Breeze, we know a few ways for you to go out and enjoy a rainy day with the family in Blue Ridge and Ellijay, so grab your umbrella, slip on some rain boots and splash into a puddle of fun.

Check out a show at the Blue Ridge Community Theater. This wonderful theater offers various plays and performances to Blue Ridge visitors and residents alike. It’s the perfect place to spend a rainy day in North Georgia! Check the calendar here to see what’s happening now! 

Another indoor activity that’s fun for the whole family, bowling! The Alley Bowling Alley is a family bowling center in Ellijay and has cosmic bowling on Friday and Saturday nights. With 12 lanes, pool tables, an arcade and pizza, you’ll be sure to be entertained all night. They even have laser tag and karaoke! 449 Industrial Blvd., #175 Ellijay, GA 30540 | (706) 276-3130

What better way to escape the rain than to go on a cinematic adventure. Let the smell of popcorn lure you into your seat and catch a movie in one of the local movie theaters. With showings at 7pm and 9pm 7 nights a week, going to the movies will be a perfect after dinner delight, especially on a rainy evening in the mountains.

While your on Main Street, let the kiddies get creative at Critter Creations where they can pick their own stuffed animal, stuff it, dress it, name it and take it home with a birth certificate. They’ll love their new furry friend and will have something to cuddle up with on the drive home through the mountains.
