About Robbinsville, North Carolina Real Estate
 Graham County is located in the far reaches of Western North Carolina in the beautiful Great Smoky Mountains of the southern Appalachians. This region is home to the some of the highest and most remote mountains east of the Mississippi with elevations ranging from 1177 to 5560 feet. If you are seeking hiking, biking, boating, fishing, scenic driving, camping, nature photography, motorcycling, whitewater rafting, or vacationing, you will find a full array of natural destinations, quaint shops and inns and the rich history of North Carolinas most remote county!
Graham County covers 433 square miles with elevation ranges from 1,177 to 5,560 feet. Two-thirds of the county is National Forest. It is the home of Joyce Kilmer Memorial Forest, Slickrock Creek Wilderness Area, Snowbird Backcountry Area, Nantahala National Forest, and borders the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. The Appalachian Trail winds through the county making its trek from Georgia to Maine. Lake Santeetlah's shoreline is more than 75% National Forest; insurance that it will never be spoiled by development. Graham County's trout streams have earned a national reputation.
Fontana Lake has some 25 miles of waters to explore. The entire north shore is the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and much of the southern shorline is National Forest. Fontana Dam and Historic Fontana Village are a must see for the vacationer.
Robbinsville, the sleepy county seat, has a population of about 800. There are traffic jams twice each year - for homecoming and the Christmas parade. The biggest celebration of the year is the annual 4th of July Heritage Festival. Another big draw is the Graham County Rescue Squad's Ramp Fest held each year on the last Sunday in April.
