- Every road has a story, every town a tale. The rich history and culture of our great country is woven into the fabric of our streets, highways, towns and cities. Hidden historical treasures are waiting to be discovered and stories from the past to be told.
Just 70 miles north of Atlanta, Ellijay is a hidden jewel nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains. We'll tour local offerings of the town and region including world-famous apple orchards, award-wining wineries and of course, breathtaking outdoor recreation. We will also explore Ellijay's past including the native American Cherokee and Creek tribes, and historical figures including Chief Whitepath, Walkingstick, Andrew Jackson and a visit from Prince Madoc in 1170.

Of all the many places my wife & I have lived, all over the US, Alaska, Germany & Libya, we love Ellijay the best! Ya gotta love all the local growers & ranchers.
Really? Wow!
Anyone with any sense knows that a small town that has a 4 lane highway running through it is not the same as it once was and will never be again. The 2 lane infrastructure in and around town is overwhelmed everytime their is prediction of snow, the first time a leaf changes color, an apple blossom blooms, a new winery opens or it's one of the 7 days of the week. If you enjoy navigating bumper to bumper traffic, strolling the sidewalks with tourists or trying to find a stream to fish that isn't posted or full of people tubing, Ellijay is the place for you. Also, if you do move here and need a job, plenty of burger flipping jobs and the local chicken plant is always hiring, its not hard to find, its basically in the middle of town about a half mile from the waste water plant. Yee Haw Y'all!
I have been all over this planet and in 2010 I chose Ellijay as my home for the rest of my life.
Really? Wow!
I want to move there from California. Is there a very much horticultural and gardening work?
I have property there, its an awesome place. The falls are really cool in the winter when freezing, walking up and down the mountain side staircase is a real hard job.
Panaroma apples is the store at the 7 minute mark, some great stuff to eat in there, fresh apple juice and home made apple pies, apple breads, canned jellys, pickles, relish, etc.. choc and ice creams, nice natural soaps,.
Carters Dam at the lake is pretty big and you can drive across the top of it.
Springer mountain is the pre trail start to the Appl. trail head, before the falls, fun ride thru the mountain woods to get there.
Miles of forestry roads to ride jeeps and motorcycles thru the mountain woods.
The apple festival is a huge mess, 10,000+ people come to a super small town and it blocks it up. Only did this mistake, 1 time.
Coosawattee river resort a super cool place.
A lot of sad history for such a gorgeous place.
Ellijay is a great area for people who love mountains and nature, but also hate harsh long winters. Winter time highs in Ellijay are typically in the upper 40's and lower 50's. That's about as warm as you'll find for an Appalachian town, because Ellijay is at the far southern tip of that range. Great spot.
I am staying in warm Florida couldn't adjust to Wet and cold
I would love to come here
My uncle is buried at the tip top of that cemetery.
I'm looking to retire to that city actually . Thanks for the video.
How is it? I am looking to move there in a couple months if I can pay the bills as self employed horticulturist…but I would change careers in a heartbeat to escape crazy California.
@@juniperjenniferdid you move there? Does it meet your expectations?
Very interesting!
My gosh I live in the wrong state! I need to get out of Florida.

Sad, how the native land was stolen!!!
Its pronounced "cahutta" not "Cahoota"...
Except for the Klu Klux Klan standing on the corner trying to hand you a brochure every once in a while a while Elijay is a great place
🤦
Much like most of the north ga mountains this is no longer a sweet little town just another gated community bought up by out of staters and investors. Absolute shit show.
