A great way to spend the day while visiting Sugar Hollow Retreat is to hike to one of the area waterfalls.

The following information was taken from http://www.cartercounty.info/waterfalls.htm

The Blue Hole

The Blue Hole is located at the base of Holston Mountain near Stoney Creek. It's reached by turning on to Panhandle Road off Hwy 91. Shortly after the pavement turns into a gravel Forest Service road, there is a small parking area on the left. Walk down the hill and you can't miss it. This is a popular local gathering spot in the summer and best visited at off peak times. For an adventurous drive, the gravel road will take you to the top of Holston Mountain which reaches 4,285 ft/1306m. Holston Mountain has a network of trails covering the ridge and running off both sides. South Holston Lake can be seen from the mountain top. Several local broadcasters have antennas on Holston as it is the highest point central to the Tri-Cities.

This series of Blue Hole photos was taken on a cool March day when a stray snow flurry was blowing through.
