Rural charm in Rock Spring
Roadside markets, cows grazing on the rolling hills, bright red barns and plant nurseries – such are the scenes of Rock Spring, a rural community found in Walker County, Georgia. While only 30 minutes south of Chattanooga and bordered by large, busy Georgia communities, Rock Spring keeps its slice of country peace. "It's definitely in the country, off the I-75 route, unlike places like Ringgold. You're not landlocked, though – there's some pretty good routes to get to nearby cities," says Christopher Owens, a Realtor with eXp Realty. "You'll get some beautiful views, and there's good country living to do." Whether living on a tree-shaded back road or in the neat grids of a subdivision, Rock Spring can surprise you with its range of architectural styles.
