Happy Halloween and stay safe!

As many people in the United States begin to plan for fall and winter holiday celebrations, CDC offers many considerations to help protect individuals and their families, friends, and communities from COVID-19. 

These considerations are meant to supplement—not replace—any state, local, territorial, or tribal health and safety laws, rules, and regulations with which holiday gatherings must comply.

All Sapphire Valley Resort amenities comply with the state of North Carolina COVID safety requirements.

October in Sapphire Valley!

October in Sapphire Valley!

A busy month in the Blue Ridge / Smoky Mountains!

1st: For the star gazer:

October includes two full moons, Mars is in opposition (so you can see it clearly in the night sky), and the Andromeda Galaxy will be visible through our clear mountain air. [Learn More at Space.com] image: Space.com

2nd: For the leaf looker:

Mid-to late October -  Sapphire Valley will see an extended leaf color season. As of the 18th many oaks and other trees still have green leaves so we can expect a splash of color until the end of the month. Read more about our fall color timing here: [App State Fall Color Report] image:AppState

3rd: For the hiker / photographer: 

Cool to cold nights, 30 degrees this morning, help create some amazing images over water. ‘Dancing Smoke’ on Fairfield Lake, see above, is one of our favorites! River fog is seen almost every morning as the colder air generates fog off the warmer river temps. image: HighSouthAdventures.com
