Our Favorite Restaurants within 4 miles of our Private Suite

Our favorite is "La Favorita" (beef, chicken & shrimp served over rice with peppers & onions) plus endless fresh hot tortilla chips, full bar with lots of local beers on tap. Platter is so big that we're full even when we split it for 2 people.

Just 3 miles from our home. Lots of maps & information - a short movie on the history of how the Blue Ridge Parkway was started, plus all the labor & risks that went into creating the Parkway. There's a 1.3 mile easy hike right next to the parking lot. It's where Howard (the turtle) takes his mud bath.
