Escape the Autumn Chill—Head to the North Georgia Mountains

While the autumn chill is nipping at your toes, we have a place that you can go to warm those tootsies up. Enjoy all the splendor of the autumn season in the North Georgia Mountains while keeping warm and toasty! The Villas at Coosawattee River Resort boasts many heartwarming (and foot warming!) features certain to give you the warm fuzzies. Nestled in the North Georgia Mountains , The Villas offers one to three bedroom villas and cabins for your cold weather get-away. And while comfortably housed in the most spectacular locations of the resort, take advantage of the roasty toasty features:

First, kick-back in front of your very own fire in your villa or cabin. Warm your toes and tickle your nose with the radiant embers of a glowing fire. Add a mug of hot chocolate and a snuggly blanket to the equation, and you have the most wonderful combination for a chilly autumn evening.

Second, what better way to warm your body and soul than to soak in a hot tub? With one of The Villa’s hot tub accommodations, you can enjoy the view of the North Georgia Mountains from the comfort and warmth of your indoor hot tub. Relax those muscles, clear your mind, and warm your body in a four-person hot tub. Warm water massage stimulates the body to release endorphins that reduce stress naturally. In addition to stress reduction, the jets dilate blood vessels to help prevent headaches. Also, soaking in hot water before retiring to bed assists in falling asleep faster, sleeping deeper, and getting a truly good night's sleep.

Third, take a dip in the resort’s heated Junior Olympic-sized pool. The pool is enclosed for comfortable swimming year round and utilizes a state-of-the-art saline chlorination system. The water, as a result, is much easier on eyes, skin, hair, and clothing while still protecting against germs, bacteria and algae. And don’t forget about those little ones—a heated kiddy pool is available to splash & play in shallow water.

Last, if reading a good book by the glow of a fire sounds mighty inviting, visit the Coosawattee Library to pick out the perfect read while on your North Georgia getaway. Books, videos, and cassette tapes are available at the Coosawattee Libray, as well as a children’s section hosting an array of age appropriate material. The library operates on the honor system and is open when the POA office is open.

The weather outside might be frightful but The Villas at the Cooswattee River Resort is very delightful. Take a weekend trip to warm your sense or perhaps a week vacation during the holidays to engross yourself in the magic, serenity, and warmth of the mountain resort. The resort features a wide variety of amenities, The General Store Deli, and six river parks for all of your sightseeing and nature loving desires. Please visit http://www.thevillasatcoosawattee.com/ or call (706) 276-1075 for more details. The Villas at Coosawattee River Resort is more than a cabin with a view!
