Graham County, North Carolina

Graham County sits on the far western edge of the state, hard against the Tennessee line, with Fontana Lake forming most of its northern border and Robbinsville as its county seat. Because most of the county is Nantahala National Forest, private land here is scarce by design, and a holding on the water or high on a ridge is genuinely rare. Lake Santeetlah, with most of its shoreline bordering national forest, is the quiet jewel; the old-growth tulip poplars of Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, the eastern end of the Cherohala Skyway, the Class IV and V whitewater of the Cheoah River and the Appalachian Trail's crossing atop Fontana Dam are all within a short drive. The Snowbird Cherokee community and the Stecoah Valley Cultural Arts Center, housed in a 1926 stone schoolhouse, carry the county's craft and cultural heritage.
