Area of Blue Ridge, Georgia

One key to the value of living in The Oaks is its prime location.

Nestled in the foothills of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, The Oaks is less than five minutes from the heart of historic downtown Blue Ridge and its elegant shopping district filled with antique shops, art galleries, boutiques, and fine restaurants. A delight for folks of all ages is riding the Blue Ridge Scenic Railway as it takes its four hour journey through the mountains and along the Toccoa River to the historic town of McCaysville and back.

The arts are alive and well in Blue Ridge, home to the Blue Ridge Community Theater where it’s never too late to start a stage career!  The Blue Ridge Mountain Arts Association – one of the southeast’s most respected arts associations -- offers a dizzying array of classes from line dancing to stained glass to creative writing, as well as a host of art shows and outdoor art festivals.

A vibrant senior center awaits you downtown, as well as a lively contract bridge club that meets weekly.

Right across Highway 515 from The Oaks is the Riverstone Medical Campus, with its full complement of medical specialties – including a world-class cardiology group -- an urgent care walk-in clinic, physical rehabilitation center, respiratory therapy clinic, and pharmacy.  Fannin Regional Hospital and a host of other medical professional offices are mere minutes away.

For those in search of outdoor adventure, Fannin County offers an unparalleled opportunity for recreation, where over 40 percent of the land is part of the Chattahoochee National Forest. The Oaks nature trail winds its way to Tammen Park and the Toccoa River – a trout fisherman’s paradise. Lake Blue Ridge is minutes away, as are miles of hiking and mountain biking trails, waterfalls, and whitewater rafting.

When the lure of the bright lights and big city calls, the great city of Atlanta is a little over an hour-and-a-half’s drive away, where you can take advantage of the world class arts, theater, dining and sports the city offers.
