Local Attractions

The Beauty of the North Carolina Mountains provides many recreational and sightseeing activities.  Here is just a short list of some of the parks, towns, attractions and natural areas that can be enjoyed within a short distance from our campground.  We hope you find the area here as beautiful and serene as we do!

Blue Ridge Parkway - 5.5 miles

Outstanding scenery and recreational opportunities make the Blue Ridge Parkway one of the most visited sections of the National Park System.

Split-rail fences, old farmsteads, mountain meadows and scenic overlooks with endless vistas make the Blue Ridge Parkway a popular attraction.

Linville Gorge - 10 miles

The Linville River with its source high on Grandfather Mountain has, by its tremendous scouring action, formed one of Eastern America's most scenic and rugged gorges..

Grandfather Mountain - 15 miles

Grandfather Mountain and its rocks reveal a long history of rock formation and mountain-building that dates back to 1.1 billion years ago. Today the mountain you see is the end product of two things: the mountain-building that culminated 300 million years ago, and the erosion that has been ongoing for over 100 million years and continues today.
