👍👍 Blue Ridge Ranch is amazing! We took our scouts there for the weekend and they had such a great time they all want to come back! This is not just a place to camp, it is a place of peace.

Brushy Mountain Motor Sports Park

Park

👍 Absolute fantastic place to ride. The only cons I have is I think some of the trails marked “easy” are not what you would think of as an easy trail and that track could definitely use a small touch up, most of the faces of the jumps have kickers that bucked a couple guys off while I was there and th...

The Local Bean

Coffee shop

👍👍 Service as sweet as the cinnamon muffin, and as warm and sincere as the tree-of-prayers-and-good-wishes! So glad to have stopped here. Somewhat sad to have to order a half-decaf from such coffee specialists, but it's what was needed. Even so, it was one of the best coffees I've ever had.

Upper Creek Falls

Hiking area

👍👍 Wow this was a beautiful hike. I have hiked many waterfalls but this one was definitely one of my favorites. When you pull into the parking area it seems to have a pretty large parking area. This trail is also a loop trail. There are 2 different trails leading off of the parking lot. The first i...

Huntfish Falls

Hiking area

👍👍 Had a lot of fun jumping from the falls into the water. Be careful because it is easy to slip and fall on the wet rocks. There are a few spots where the water is deep enough to swim in, but it is very cold. The hike to the falls is not bad, but coming back can be difficult if you're not in the best...

Annie Cannon Gardens

Garden

👍👍 We absolutely loved this trail! It was a little more steep than we expected but the reward at the bottom was amazing!!
