Here is a list of things to do in the area, including hiking trails, a nice drive and a short diverse restaurant selection.
Walhalla fish hatchery

The Chattooga River and many hiking trails are nearby.
Yellow Branch Trail is one of our favorite regular hikes. It’s close by and takes about 2 hours in and out to the waterfall by we usually spend about 3 hours due to playing in the falls.
Across the road from Yellow Branch is Stump House Tunnel. Bring flashlight. Once in the park the tunnel is to the left and the waterfall is to the right. The tunnel is completely dark and is damp inside, but fun. Short hikes but nice waterfall and interesting tunnel to nowhere.
Also from our neighborhood, turn left onto Hwy 28, go to the bridge at the Chattoga River and hike upstream. I don’t know the name of this one but it’s nice and follows the river. Good fishing here also.
It’s a little drive but look up Turtle Back Falls. It’s a very nice hike along a river and passes several falls. It can be quite busy. https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/north-carolina/rainbow-falls-and-turtleback-falls-trail
All about waterfalls

Just on the other side of Highlands NC, about a 40 minute drive is Hwy 64 and it has 3 waterfalls along it. Easy to get to all 3: Bridal Veil Falls, Dry Falls, Bust your Butt Falls. Just a fun drive with easy little walks. If you just want an easy day you could drive through Highlands, see the waterfalls then drive to Clayton Ga and back to Mountain Rest Lake. Clayton traffic for about 2 miles through town can be a bear on the weekends in the fall. It’s a nice loop and there are restaurants in Clayton and Highlands.

Walhalla restaurants
We usually eat at Puerto Nuevo Mexican & Seafood Restaurant in Walhalla. Something on the menu for everyone. It’s nothing fancy but the food is good.
Dakota Grill, just down the hill towards Walhalla. Food is usually quite good. Closed for the winter season.
If you don’t mind driving a little farther (20 minutes) we like Paesano's Italian Restaurant in Seneca.
Enjoy!

Summary: We had a wonderful stay at this cabin and enjoyed our time at the little lake. I had booked it for my wife's birthday and we were there with our two children (ages 8 & 11). The cabin was clean and had all the amenities we needed. Dishes, utensils, cookware, grills, kayaks, life jackets, sunscreen, bug spray, etc. The amenities were abundant and thoughtful. We enjoyed the little private dock, kayaking around the lake, swimming, and fishing, although we didn't catch anything. The evenings were quiet and relaxing while we cooked and played board games. For anyone who can't disconnect, the cabin has high speed WiFi, which is appreciated, since we had no service through T-Mobile. The lake and surrounding area was serene and peaceful, just what we were looking for. The cabin is a hidden gem and we will definitely return in the future.

Summary: I want to give a very special thank you to the owner, who accommodated me during a hard time. That was very kind of you. The cabin was beautiful and had a very close to home vibe. I brought my niece and 2 young daughters. They were in awe. We had fun swimming in the lake, jumping from the dock and eating breakfast while watching the sunrise. So beautiful. If you have any doubts about booking, JUST DO IT!!! So worth it.

Summary: The house was how it was described. Very nice and cozy. We caught fish off the dock, but didn't get to go out in the canoe. (A little cold for us still.) Beautiful view in the morning with the reflection of the lake and the trees. We will be back

Summary: The view of the lake from this cabin is spectacular! We enjoyed walking out on the dock and sitting for a while. Great location for pictures. The cabin is very nice inside with beautiful pine paneling and interesting decor. The cabin had everything we needed for a long weekend trip. We enjoyed riding the mountain roads and exploring some of the nearby parks. We hope to return again for another relaxing weekend.
