This was our 1st year vacationing with the in-laws, kids, and my own mom. The cabin was great as we all fit comfortably and the kids loved being downstairs playing pool.

Here are a few things we did on our trip:

1. Deep Creek tubing in Bryson City- whitewater rafting. They have an upper area for the more adventures or the lower area where you can float longer. Either way you end up in the same spot at the end.

2.We went Whitewater rafting on the Ocoee, it was the best on the trip! Our guide was Martin. Make sure you ask for him!

3.There are some waterfalls around, but the nicest was Amicalola Falls, breathtaking! There is a little place to fish for trout!

4.You must eat at the Toccoa Riverside Restaurant a 5-minute walk from the bottom of the driveway- Pecan Crusted Trout- delicious! (That's where my husband and I spent our 2nd anniversary night)

5. Don't forget to go down to the swing as it's across the street. You can even bring chairs (if you have any) to sit by the river. We went at dusk to wade in the water. So refreshing and nice to take pictures. Make sure to put your cork in the basket too!
