Cocktail Hike
A different kind of hike!
Towards the end of the
day, grab your backpack, a bottle of wine,
a little cheese and pâté
and head up to Beacon
Heights or Wiseman’s
View. Why have a
cocktail inside when a
short drive and a very
short walk can lead
you to majestic views?
Cocktails anywhere else
will never be the same.
Remember to leave
enough time to get down
before dark (we know
this from experience).

little too ambitious, the
North Carolina Mountains offer something
for everyone: short and
scenic, swimming holes
and swinging ropes.
We’ve done it all…over
and over again!

Fish
Call me a fly fisher wannabe! Although I have
only enjoyed this sport a
few times, I always think
I want to do it more.
The area offers excellent
guides and trout streams.
SHOP
Ruffin Gallery (photo above)
Located next to the
Hampton Store, the
Ruffin Gallery is an easy
way to see some of the
area’s seriously talented
artisans. One of my
favorites is Caron Baker
Wike. My husband marvels that I always seem
to “need” another piece!
