Waterfalls Park
City park
👍👍 We stopped on our drive to the Airport to stretch our legs and so glad we did! It was a nice walk/hike down to the falls, with the trail being very doable (gravel) but be careful at the end there are rocks and steep steps to navigate to actually get to the falls area, for those with mobility issues....

Beech Mountain Sledding Hill
Park
👍👍 This is a great place to bring the kids and let them lose in the snow.
To make sure your trip is a success, please call the number listed above and ask if the sledding hill has snow. If the conditions are good, the staff will set a snow machine and keep it cranked to ensure the hill is perfect.

Food Lion
Grocery store
👍 Nice, well-stocked, clean. Typical Food Lion, much like the one we use back home. Horrible location; a left hand turn out of the parking lot is an exercise in faith, as the shopping center entrance (only one) is situated on a blind curve with a downhill grade.

Mountain Grounds Coffee & Tea Co.

👍👍 Nice spot right next to grandfather mountain. Well designed and quality drip. Had a variety of other stuff too. Plenty of cozy seating. Outside the shop was a little plain but inside was awesome.

Banner Elk Winery
Winery
🫤 Frequent many wineries throughout NC and GA. This winery needs a lot work to the grounds. The grounds are poorly manicured. We ordered a pitcher of Berry Sangria and it tasted like a watered down lemonade and did not appear to have any wine in it. Do not recommend. This review is intended to hel...

Fred & Larry's Coffee
Coffee shop
😠 The place is beautiful lovely atmosphere. BUT I ordered a drip coffee as they have it on the menu unfortunately it wasn't , the lady did a shot and added water. When I approached her about it she denied it and try to convince me that it was drip coffee. So long story short if you want drip coffee or...

Grandfather Mountain Entrance Gate
Nature preserve
👍 I’ve been visiting for years, but went the other day with family for the first time since Covid. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because I think it is overpriced. I would go more often if it was more affordable. The mile high swinging bridge is amazing with breathtaking views. I also love t...
