Moss Creek Preserve is a rare, unique tract of 332 acres of beautiful mountain property adjacent to the town of Suches in Fannin County, Georgia. Fannin County, one of Georgia’s northern counties that border North Carolina, is about 1 ½ hours from either Atlanta or Chattanooga. Of special significance to this unique tract of land is the entire north property line, east property line and a portion of the south property line adjoin the Chattahoochee National Forest, part of the United States Forest Service. There is over 9300 feet (1.76 miles) of shared border with the Chattahoochee National Forest. This provides assurances to Moss Creek Preserve owners that the adjoining property will remain undeveloped while giving them access to tens of thousands of additional pristine acres to enjoy. To find a piece of property tucked into the national forest with this amount of contiguous property line to the surrounding National Forest is extraordinary. The property has 1090 feet of frontage on the Toccoa River on the southwest corner of the property between GA Highway 60 and the river. This river frontage section of the parcel provides deeded river access for the property owners. This section of the Toccoa River is cited by fishing guides as one of the best in terms of trophy trout. In addition, the property also has an estimated 11,954 feet of perennial streams fed by springs. The 332-acre tract is located in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It has southerly views of the Toccoa River Valley and Springer Mountain, the southern starting point of the Appalachian Trail, which is less than 5 miles away. The property is accessed from Highway 60 and is midway between the popular towns of Dahlonega and Blue Ridge, about 30 minutes from either town. This provides property owners easy access to the activities and events in either Dahlonega or Blue Ridge, but still enjoy the peace and quiet the Suches area provides. Property elevations range from 2000 to 2500 feet above sea level, with approximately 30 acres of open meadows and the balance covered with large trees and mountain streams flowing through the property. The property is unique for mountain property in that the topography change is gradual. A spring fed lake could easily be created on the property.
