Big Canoe Weather update

One of the things about living in Big Canoe is our security staff puts out weather updates. As a mountain community it is great to get emails about potentially icy weather coming our way. Big Canoe is a great mountain experience. But in addition to being in the mountains it is a community . Part of what that community does is help folks. The weather updates are just part of the Big Canoe experience.

By the way stock up a little because tomorrow mught be a bit slippery

Big Canoe Thanksgiving Safety tips

Charlie Ragonesi Big Canoe, Jasper, North Georgia Pros: Real Estate Brokerage in Big Canoe, GA

I am starting to see cars come into Big Canoe with folks who are going to spend a fun Thanksgiving week in the mountains. So her are a couple of tips that will help to make your week safe.

1 Even though we have trucks that clear roads there are a lot of wet leaves on the ground this year. Be careful. As you are going up and down the mountains wet leaves can cause you to skid. So drive slowly and arrive 5 minutes later...but arrive.

2 If you are using a fire place , and why not, make sure the Dampener is open. Also make sure you do not have combustible materiels , like a nice basket of pine cones near the heat.

3 If you are bringing your pets KEEP THEM ON A LEASH. Fido may not have seen deer before . When he goes off into the woods to chase them he may get very lost

Have a great and Happy Thanksgiving here in our great mountains

Looking into the MountainsThis marks the end of the Fall season for us in the North Georgia Mountains. Here are a couple of pictures taken from a home in Big Canoe. I am not sure how you get better mountains views. The green you see are the great evergreens so even in Winter we will have some green views. If you are looking to buy in the mountains consider North Georgia. We are centrally located between , Atlanta, Asheville, and Chattanooga. We are affordable. And we are the shortest drive from Florida. So if you are looking stop here. You will be happy you did
