Situated in North Georgia at the start of the Appalachian Mountains, the town of Jasper is just 45 minutes north of Atlanta- far enough away to offer a true mountain escape from city life. Jasper and surrounding Pickens County is the home to spectacular mountain-view real estate with an unsurpassed collection of private communities and master-planned neighborhoods. A region steeped in American history, it was in the center of the Cherokee Nation at one time and much of the area remains the pristine landscape it was a century ago.
The lovely Ocoee River, site of the 2000 Atlanta Summer Olympics white water events, is minutes away. Nearby Carters Lake is a magnificent recreational lake set in the foothills scenery of the Blue Ridge Mountains with sparkling waters and 62 miles of rugged shoreline. Carters Lake boasts 3,200 surface acres and depths up to 450 feet deep and retains its natural beauty by not allowing private docks or development along its protected shoreline. Visitors enjoy a variety of recreational opportunities like camping, fishing, picnicking, boating, mountain biking and hunting.
Residents enjoy four distinct seasons, with a burst of color from spring flowers and fall foliage and summer which are a welcome few degrees cooler than Atlanta. The Jasper area includes close-knit communities spread out throughout the foothills and valleys- Talking Rock, Tate, Marble Hill, Hinton, Blaine, Ludville and Nelson, GA each offer a unique setting and quality way of life.
