We saw lots of great places to check out but unfortunately we were there on a Sunday...nothing much is open. We ate at pig &grits the first day..super good then Lil Smokey's Sunday..it's all we could find open..was good too.

5/5 - Excellent

The town square is within walking distance and has the cutest shops and some very good eateries. Mountains are the awesome backdrop for this town so I suggest the 3rd or 4th week in October to visit.

We were traveling the Blue Ridge Parkway and this was a little further away than I thought it would be. Still a wonderful place to stay.
