| Clay County
Best Kept Secret of the Smoky Mountains Clay County is the kind of place that keeps people coming back. Nestled in the southwestern part of the state and cradled in the Southern Appalachian Mountains, it’s the scenic, panoramic vistas, friendly people and year-round recreation opportunities that keep folks coming back. At the heart of Hayesville, the only town in the county, is the historic courthouse and town square. The Clay County Courthouse, built in 1888 in the Italianate Revival |
style, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Embraced by mountains, Lake Chatuge offers recreation opportunities for anglers, boaters and anyone who enjoys fresh air, beautiful views and water recreation. Trout streams, hiking trails and opportunities for other recreational activities abound. A growing artists’ community, acclaimed restaurants, lodging and businesses add to Clay County’s appeal. Put Clay County at the top of your destination list and find out why a trip here is like coming home. |
