This is probably the most touristy of the towns in the area. However the downtown area is still quite nice, and while it can get busy in peak seasons, there is a little bit of everything for everyone. As you can see in the picture one of the big attractions is the Blue Ridge Scenic Train.
Some notable locations downtown that many families enjoy:
- Hucks General Store – What kid doesn’t like picking out their own candy. Lots of other souvenirs and treats
- 2nd Story Entertainment – A truly unique indoor mini-golf experience. Used to be an old hotel. Must see and a lot of fun!
- Chester’s – Just downstairs from the minigolf. Described as a Rustic American Bar & grill. Nice Restaurant with good selection of cocktails.
- Much much more…. I could go on and on but will save that for a Blue Ridge specific post
