Located in northwest Georgia in Floyd County's southwestern corner,
Cave Spring lies at the western end of beautiful Vann's Valley. The city is a
mere five miles from our neighboring state of Alabama on US Hwy 411,
which was originally an important Indian trail from ages past. Nestled
between the sheltering hills creating our wide valley of rich farmlands,
mineral deposits, abundant cle
ar spring waters, creeks, and a major river
traversing the area, those who early found their way here were quickly
enamored at the sight of the intrinsic beauty of this special land. Cave Spring is once again discovering its roots, from the Creek and
Cherokee inhabitants who established local commerce, to its earliest
European settlers who moved inland as their families outgrew the
coastal areas and resources. The diverse peoples that were a part of
area history have quietly preserved the atmosphere of small town
living that we relish from childhood. The town still has much of
that unhurried pace, an essence of southern hospitality established
by earlier generations, and the beauty of its natural surroundings
with the cave and spring of its name in Rolater Park, just one block
south of the only traffic signal.
