Where others have fallen short, residents in one Blue Ridge Mountain community are determined to go the distance. The Sky Valley Resort and Golf Club is the center of the Sky Valley community in Rabun County, which is why several residents decided to band together and rescue the resort with a tainted past from foreclosure. Now the newly renamed Sky Valley Club is back on solid financial footing with plans to expand and improve in the years to come.
