After retiring from IBM in 2001, My wife and I found Lake Toxaway almost by accident. We didn't know that such a place existed. There is a common phrase used here which says "You Don't Have to Die to Go to Heaven, You just move to Lake Toxaway". The jet stream makes the weather very pleasant here. Above 85 deg in the summer is considered very hot.
On Friday nights there is a large jamboree at the very large community center which can be seen in the valley below. Lots of music and fellowship go on here. Music is mostly Country and Bluegrass.
We are a couple of hours from the Smokies with Dollywood etc. The area has lots of festivals happening such as the Cherokee Indian reservation events, Brevard Music center, Biltmore estates and much more.
You won't lack for things to do as there are so many trails leading to wonderful water falls and great sites.
Whether you select this site or not, You're sure to love Lake Toxaway and you may get hooked as so many have.
