When nothing will do but fresh mountain air, set your sights on one of the South’s best under-the-radar mountain getaways. These spots offer small-town charms and opportunities to explore in nature, but without the crowds that sometimes come with roads more frequently traveled. The best thing about a mountain vacation is that it can be whatever you want it to be. If you and your sweetie want to hole up in a cabin with nothing but a couple jigsaw puzzles and each other’s company, you can do just that. If you’re looking for a new destination where you can bring the kiddos and grandparents for a multigenerational trip of a lifetime, a hidden gem alpine town certainly fits the bill. When the mountains start calling, these secluded spots are our favorite way to answer. 🌄 #mountains #fall #getaway #travel #southern
